Good boy!

Every morning, and now that it’s light out at 5:30am, Mom looks outside our kitchen window to see if Mr. G is around. Where’s he at today? It isn’t always easy to spot him.

Today we’re counting nose tips and tails. Why? Well, why not? Better to know everyone has theirs so there’s no surprises later.
Pia has a delightful nose. Great shape with an inward curve, good width and color with those all important dark wisdom freckles that every ginger should have. She likes to have her nose scritched.
Pia’s tail is floofy and she uses it to do all kinds of things – waving this way and that when she’s happy or sassy or wants to get food on it. Pia, please stop jumping onto the kitchen table when we’re eating dinner.
Viola’s nose is extra kissable and she doesn’t mind that one bit. She’ll probably give a kiss back because she’s generous that way. Viola’s nose is pink, outlined in dark brown, and is long and curved outward like her mama’s was.
Surprise! Viola is tail-less. That doesn’t make that behind any less adorable.
Tessa, who insisted we get a single photo of both her nose and tail in the same shot, has a long, straight nose without much curve at all. Her tail is gray like her tuxedo coat and she uses it to keep those pretty white murder mittens toasty warm on cool nights.
Not shown is Quint who had better things to do than to sit for another photo or two. He was probably off napping in his blanket fort. You probably already knew that.

Today, we begin a new, limited time segment called, “Where’s Mr. G today?”

These are visitors Colby and Lloyd, two neighborhood cats who may, or more than likely, may not have permanent homes somewhere in the area. They are both regular visitors here at the Colehaus Feeding Stations of Kibble-y Goodness. And until last weekend, both got along with each other perfectly fine. We have photographic proof!
Colby (name appointed by Mom) is a gloriously floofy and friendly orange and white boy who probably isn’t neutered and is uncapturable at this time. Twice last year, he had a good portion of his left cheek gouged in some kind of fight with something. While he’s now missing the fur from that side of his face, both incidents healed well on their own. From the amount of grease and oil on his tail, we suspect he lives under a car, possibly being stored in a backyard (there are several un-official backyard junkyards in this development). Mom has been unable to find his true home and no one lays claim to him.
Lloyd (real name unknown) is a friendly and handsome Lynx point Siamese boy with blue eyes who probably isn’t neutered and is also uncapturable at this time. He regularly shows up with minor scratches on his nose from some kind of fight with something. His scratched nose heals well on its own. Months ago, Mom saw him walking along a quiet sidewalk toward a well-to-do development over a quarter of a mile away. To date, Mom has been unable to find his true home.
Last weekend, both were caught fighting at our side yard feeding stations. Mom put an end to it by sticking her foot between the two and is very, very thankful she had thick shoes on. Colby attacked her shoe, nearly biting through it, and then, shot out the hole in our fence to parts unknown. Lloyd stayed a few minutes longer but was skittish and left shortly after.
Mom says she’ll break up any other fight she sees them in and isn’t sorry her shoe got bit. Using a broom, she once took on a rambunctious raccoon, and she says that was scarier.
Let’s now look at some nice cats who get along with each other.
Yes, Tessa and Quint sometimes have their moments when they aren’t fond of one another. That day isn’t today. Good kitties.
