Visitor

This kitten has shown up in our garden a few times, but I just couldn’t let it in the house, with my husband being allergic to cats and Sahraa the main princess here. Except that I managed to catch it out of the corner of my eye coming down our main staircase! So I put it outside the gate as it occurred to me that it was wailing because it was locked in. It’s so friendly, I actually think it has a home and has just ended up in our garden by accident a few times.

The cat adds to a lovely composition. I do think she must have a home somewhere and just enjoys exploring!V

Cats often run two homes, we are sure our Ginger does. V.

It does seem that you've made a friend, and maybe Sahraa has too. I wonder haw many more times we'll see this DQ resident. Cool shot of a cool cat. V

This lovely cat certainly looks well fed. I am relieved to hear from what you've said in previous posts, that cats are well treated. I really like the tones in this great shot. V

Oh Helen, I think this is the same cat that was up the palm tree!
Poor little thing.
Sometimes, cats choose people. I hope for your sake this one hasn't chosen you :-)

Awwwww....they can be very persistent. Life in the desert must be very hard.

Some watchdog Sahraa turned into - let the cat in your house :-(
