Purrchance To Dream

Remember The Floofster?
I hadn't seen him in a long time, and thought he might have found another barn to haunt, or a new family. But last night, I saw him hopping across the tall grass at sunset, then sitting at the edge of my pumpkin patch, waiting for the night visitors.
Then this morning, I spotted the old Calico who I hadn't seen for an even longer period of time - not since last winter. I thought The Floofster had replaced the Calico as the next door neighbor's cat, but apparently they have two now.
I know I'm not home often to watch for backyard cats (they like to come to my barn behind my house for some R&R - the next door neighbors have 3 teenage boys and a yappy dog in a trailer - can you blame the cats for wanting to get out and having their own space?).
Anyway, neither of these cats would ever let me get within ten feet of them, and both seem to be well-fed. I can only hope when I leave this place that the new owners don't tear down the barn (it's not in the greatest condition) so that The Floofster and Calico will have some place to go for an afternoon siesta.
Ciao for now,

Tonight at sunset, The Floofster was in our back yard, playing pounce-on-the-grasshopper.
Lee has started calling him "FluffyKitty"
Every morning, the saucer of kibble is licked clean.
Just thought I'd give y'all an update.

We had several requests for pictures of our deck-visitor, The Floofster. Last night, Not The Mama took this picture of him out by our garage, after we saw him drinking on the deck.
Not The Mama is making sure the birdbath water is clean every day, and he put out a saucer of kibbles last night for The Floofster, and they were gone this morning!
We hope he really lives next door, and just needs some peaceful time in our yard, but he doesn't seem to have a collar on (not that this means much...). He will let Not The Mama get about ten feet away, and will meow back when he talks to him, but won't let him get any closer.
We'll keep you up-dated.
Meow for now,
Daphne & Chloe
