As Meow-Me seemed content just lazing about at the fenced up portion of our porch, we often let her out to stretch. Saturday morning was no exception. After her breakfast, we left her outside to stretch while we had our breakfast. 15 minutes later, I looked out and she was GONE!
We rushed out to look for her in the drizzle, hoping she hadn't gone far. We called, we jingled the food container, we looked in the drains, at the back alley but there was no sign of her. Hubby decided to walk further while I went back hoping she had come home but nothing. Then Hubby came running back, waving his hands frantically. He had found her!
The little girl was in the deep drain, looking a little disappointed that we managed to find her. We had to climb in the drain, corner her and finally catch her in the most indignified manner. I'm surprised she didn't scratch my eyes out. She's only allowed out under very close supervision now.

While I was feeding her dinner on Sunday night, we had a visitor! It's a cat I've not seen before. The cat was very friendly, loud AND starving. The visitor allowed me to stroke and even carry him / her. I can't make out if it's male or female but it's fur is nice and clean so I think it might be a lost cat. I gave it some biscuits which it gobbled up. Poor thing.

It looks like an adult cat. I think it is neutered coz I didn't see any ding dongs and it's not pregnant either. It looks to be in good condition but just very hungry. |
