There are two new visitors to our deck, our house, and our yard! Tigress and I don't like them very much, because they eat our food and one of them gets pets from our family. Our purrents say that one of them will learn to take turns with us and the other one will find a new home within the next couple months. I certainly hope that turns out to be true! I had to go out the door to the other dimension (aka the front door) this morning, because my door was blocked by the intruder who gets pets. Mommy had to pick me up and put me out in the other dimension, then give me pets to let me know that it was still the same place. No, it's not! It's the other dimension!

Aack! The lady took pictures of me! I really don't like the flashy box, but learned last night that the red light means the white light will flash. I freeze when the red light comes on, wait until after the white light flashes, then go on about my business (mainly getting pets from the lady and twirling around her while she talks to me). I've been hanging around this new house since July 4th. The people think that I either was dumped or ran away because of the fireworks. I obviously know all the important things that a housecat should know, like what doors, collars, lights, people, and toys are, so I was an owned cat very recently. I have a collar, but that is from these new people. The tag is made especially for me, and says "Am I yours???" on one side and "If so, call xxx-xxx-xxxx" on the other. The people named me Panther because I'm all black with gold eyes. I'm shorthaired, and between 8 months and a year old. I am not fixed, so if I truly am a stray or a dumped cat, that will be the first order of business (along with testing to make sure I'm free of any diseases).
I'm a very friendly boy, but I love to play, so I was showing off my ferociousness on the tomato cage! I headbutt any hand that pets me, talk like a Siamese, and love to brush up against the people. I'm a very strong boy, so my headbutts really push the people's hands!
If you are in the Hazel Dell/Walnut Grove area of Clark County, Washington, and know where I belong, please let the people know by commenting on this blog post. If you are local, please share this information via blog, Facebook, etc., to help me find my home. Thank you!
Our second new visitor is the raccoon in back. He or she is a new kit, born about 12 weeks ago (probably), and just started coming with his mom. His mom is one of last summer's kits, born to R.K., so the new kit is the fourth generation since we've lived in this house (three years). He's very smart, and even likes to play with the toys JJ left behind! The plastic saw is one of his favorites. He'll spend a few minutes turning it over and over in his hands, trying to figure out what it is and what it does, then he'll bite it and put it down. Daddy gave the outside cats a hotdog that had fallen on the floor inside, but the cats didn't want it. The kit found it and figured out it was food after rolling it around for a bit! He also likes the blue scoops from the weather station.
Wow, those are interesting visitor you've had.

ReplyDeleteHandsome Panther! We hope someone is just missing this boy! Purrs...
ReplyDeleteI hope Panther has a home - or, at the very least, that he WILL have one!
ReplyDeletePanther sure is a handsome guy! We have our paws crossed that he finds his home. As for that raccoon -- very cute, if you ask us. :)
ReplyDeletePanther is a handsome kittie. We hope he finds his way home.
ReplyDeleteWe were thinking maybe Billy might work as a therapy kittie, since he was raised by humans. But a couple attempts to introduce him to new people didn't work out very well. Like him claws out, struggle, run away not very well. We may check to see if there is a program locally, but it probably is not worth the pain (mine) and fear (Billy's). Thanks, though.
