Ugly cat

Spotted this ugly cat rummaging around in my backyard last night, apparently cleaning snails in the pond(?). Have you misplaced your homely kitty who washes snails? You may claim it here.

It didn’t respond well to “Here kitty kitty.” It kind of hissed, actually.

Cat gazebo

Butch, the neighbor’s cat wandered in this morning and made himself at home. We thought this was just a stylish end-table, but Butch quickly identified it as a cat gazebo for feline meditations. Who mew?

Butch, the neighbor’s cat wandered by our backyard BBQ for Mother’s Day.

Hope you had a most excellent Mother’s Day.

Butch

Butch is the neighbor’s cat. He’s no ‘fraidy cat. I think you’ll agree he’s got good color for hunting in this terrain. Only his pink nose betrays him. And the fact he likes to roll around on his back a lot.
