My friend’s cat Clown has grown a lot since last August.

My friend took this photo of her cat Clown playing with a squirrel. She insists that the squirrel was playing too, since he had plenty of opportunities to leave.

My mother’s cat Smoky is staying with us. She is an elderly dilute tabby Manx. In an attempt to keep her from laying on my laptop as I use it, I made a bed for her in a crate on my work table. She seems to think this is an acceptable compromise.

This beautiful, young, and affectionate gray cat showed up at my friend’s place a few months ago.  Cursing the people who had apparently dumped her in the country, my friend waited for Wendy’s first heat cycle so she could be spayed.  Then we noticed Wendy was getting rather pear shaped.  She had her kittens in the hay barn two weeks ago, but was quite agreeable to them being brought inside the garage where they would be safe from predators.  She is a very good mother, and just purrs when people admire, and even handle, her babies.
