The Cat Is Busy
@thecatisbusy.bsky.social
The Cat was a much loved alpha-female feral, OTRB 4.5.2021. Photos are of her, her family and the feral cats who we used to feed, plus more recent photos of local village and farm cats.

Longtail was one of the up-and-coming males of the neighbourhood. He arrived around the time that Kiwi did, so maybe they were related. Walking past him here on the wall you would have been able to admire his beautiful opaline eyes.

Sherpa, probably wondering why the humans were laughing. He was a comical youngster at times, and like his big brother Raven in that respect.

G7 cleaning a bowl under the pomegranate tree in the garden. At this time, there were a lot of orange gentlemen around and we had to resort to numbers for a few months (G4, 5, 6 & 7).

These were plastic farmers' crates which we bought from our local greengrocer. Under the olive tree we put three together (tied through the holes) with netting on the top so the cats didn't slip when they landed. They worked really well, and all the cats used them.

After being chased out of the garden by The Cat, Visitor Cat decided it would be in her best interests if her paws did not touch the hallowed soil of The Cat's Garden. So we fed her atop the wall and she napped on the plant ledge until The Cat mellowed.

However anti-social, however much of a bully, however unpredictable Mr Grey (aka The Evil Grey aka Sunday) may have been, it was impossible not to love him a little (or maybe more than a little...)

Kittens always want to eat the most unsuitable food, and Nike was no exception.

Funnily, The Cat never objected to Sniffly Cat's presence in the garden although she took a violent dislike to some other of the female visiting cats. Sniffly had a sweet personality and got on well with the other cats.

Time for an after-dinner wash for Saturday, before heading off into the fields.
This was about as close as we were allowed, without frightening him away.

The drop from the path wall down to the driveway always worried me. As far as I know, no one fell off although a few jumped (mostly in panic or fear). Pikabu lived at a nearby shop, so he was used to people and we could walk past him without scaring him.

Some of the fields opposite (complete with compulsory felines). This photo is from May of one year, after the harvest - the cats always found good hunting after the grasses had been harvested.
