The paranoid me has been setting cat foor out every evening for all the poor kitties who are cold and hungry. The rational me knows that this is probably doing more harm than good – I ‘ve heard a few cat fights, and some owner is probably thinking, “My cat’s getting mighty fat from the little food we provide at our own house. I will now limit their food intake.” ….wait! That was paranoid me again. You never know when I’ll pop up.
Anyway, here is proof of the eating. If this was our cat, I’d call him/her P.T. for ‘Pretty Tiny’. This cat is SMALL! S/he’s very friendly, as well. She only looks stupid in this photo because the flash is destroying her night vision.
You’re not alone in feeding the neighborhood…I still set food out for that big orange cat I call Boyfriend (he’s always looking for a little action from Bobbie, our cat, much to Bobbie’s annoyance). He gets fatter every time I see him…perhaps he’s been heading two blocks west…
When I was there at Christmas, I was sure you were feeding a racoon or a homeless person. I still think this cat might be a plant. I mean, I know that cat is an animal, but I suspect it’s fake. I mean, I’m sure it’s a real cat, I just think it might not be what you say it is. I mean, I believe you when you say it’s tiny but… Oh forget it.
Poor, poor kitty.
It does sound kind of robotic when it moves. Hmmmmm…
I stopped feeding neighborhood animals when a cat we had been feeding saw us (me & my young kids) outside & made a dash from across the street to come see us and varoom …. squish …. flattened kittie … like in a cartoon … I used to live on a busy street (Northern Pkwy) … my kids blamed themselves for feeding it … it was bad ….
My heart is breaking. I can’t even imagine that – especially with the kids watching. Sooooo sorry Peggy that it happened to you.
