The cats have returned from vacation — Ajax and Ruby made an extended stay in San Antonio with Daddy, but everyone else returned to Central Texas with me last Sunday, just in time for the cold snap.\u00a0 Sneaky was crying at the parlor window on Sunday night, so, since it was projected to get into the teens, I took a carrier outside, picked her up, put her in the carrier, and brought her in the house.\u00a0 She spent the night in Lady’s cage.<\/p>\n

\"Sneaky\"<\/p>\n

Delta and Floyd were particularly interested.\u00a0 Rossie, when Sneaky squeaked at her, ran.\u00a0 Daphne hissed and fluffed.\u00a0 I’m not sure Sneaky knew what to make of things, but she seemed to take everything in stride.\u00a0 When I came downstairs Tuesday morning, she was in the same position as above only she was in the litter box.\u00a0 It probably felt mostly like she was used to outside.\u00a0 She went back into the carrier without incident, and she was happy to be released outside.\u00a0 Monday night, when it was supposed to get just a little colder, she didn’t make any appearances at the parlor window, so I figured she didn’t want to repeat the experience of coming inside.\u00a0 Lady graciously moved to the downstairs bathroom for the night.<\/p>\n

Severe cold weather seems to bring us another visitor.\u00a0 I’m calling him fluffy gray, but he’s really a short to medium haired gray tabby.\u00a0 At least, I think it’s a he.\u00a0 He’s too shy to get close to, but I’ve been able to get several pictures.\u00a0 He seems well-cared for, but presumably, he doesn’t have a home, or why would he appear here in really cold weather?\u00a0 I got a picture with the Finepix camera this morning:<\/p>\n

Sneaky, of course, is as serious as ever (and as demanding of attention; she loves to be petted — but only on the side porch):\"Serious<\/p>\n

Tarzan and Floyd are wonderful big brothers to Daphne<\/p>\n

Natasha, Lady, Rossie, Ajax, and Ruby are all doing just fine.\u00a0 That’s the “State of the Cat” for this week.<\/p>\n
