New Kid On The Block

New Kitty On The Block! Another stray kitty has made its way into our home. The other night we heard a loud meowing coming from across the creek. K went to check it out and saw a little kitty near the bank of the creek but was unable to cross the creek to get her/him. We felt bad but were hoping the little kitty would work its way around the water and find us. She/he didn't, so the next day Silvius and K took off down the road and K found little kitty high in a tree a bit further away from the creek. I did not go because I have to be on a leash and K thought I might scare little kitty. Bummers! I miss out on all the fun! Anyway, K was able to coax her/him down from the tree and then brought her/him home. Since coming here little kitty has been pretty much living in the tree by the back deck (see above photos). She/he will climb down once or twice a day to eat and drink but today she/he actually stayed down from the tree for almost four hours. Kitty does not like little kitty. Kitty will sit at the base of the tree just staring up at her/him and when little kitty comes down Kitty will growl. Above is a photo of Kitty and Porgy before little kitty joined us. I also added a photo of me [of course!] hanging out with Porgy on the back deck. K has been trying to figure out a name for little kitty. So far she calls her/him Baby C for "baby cat." I am not sure I like the name Baby C because as a male, I sound girly saying "Baby C" and I am not a girly-man. Or girly-male dog. Sometimes K will call little kitty "Baby C to the T in the D" meaning baby cat goes to the tree in the dark. "Baby C to the T in the D"?? I guess K thinks she is a hip-hop star now. Well, I can try my paw at rap. Just call me Snoop Suka Dawg {I hope Snoop Dog doesn't mind}: "Baby C is checking out the green Porgy as she climbs up the tree to escape from growling Kitty." I'm just sayin'...er, rappin'...
