After being absent for a couple of weeks, the peach kitty came by for a visit!
Of course, he behaved like it was no big deal. But my human and I actually weren’t surprised he hadn’t been around. It’s been either cold or rainy, and none of the cat family has been around much. We don’t know where he goes when the weather’s like that. He considers the whole neighborhood his home, so it could be anywhere. Still, we were glad to see him.
And he was happy to see me. Maybe a little too happy.
And both of us were happy to get some treats!
He even took treats out of my human’s hand. My human always wonders if he’ll forget after being away for a while, but he never does. He still eats his treats from her hand and even lets her pet him a little, just like always.
He still won’t let her rub his face with her hand. Getting to touch a feral cat from face front is actually really difficult. If a stray cat lets you do that right away, it almost always means they are an abandoned house cat, and not feral.
What he did want to do was play with me! I don’t know why he keeps trying, since I never join in.
Mostly he just wanted to hang out and lay in the sun. Which was nice because it shows how relaxed he is around my human. He may even think he’s safer with her there because he can see how protective she is of me.
Eventually my human wanted to return to work and he wanted to go off and do whatever he does when he’s not here. So it was time to go back inside.
