I just got the best Caturday surprise!

Spooky is back!!! (Madoc and Arthur's mother.)

I haven't seen her since early Spring and truly thought something had happened to her. She's very nervous so I had to take the photo through the sun room window.

I wonder where she has been? Is her left eye leaking? Polly Hennessey Oct 2023 #11
Could she be pregnant? She wants to have the children was close to the nursery as possible. 1WorldHope Oct 2023 #12

She kind of resembles my daughter's cat (in NJ) where I visited last weekend, for grand daughter's 8th birthday celebration. Grey with blue eyes.

Being there confirmed my cat allergy, persists, as I stayed in guest room where Sadie the cat certainly hangs around. I was glad to leave, for that reason.

My cat Spooky left and never came back. Crushed! 40 years ago. Never let another cat roam free. All house cats after that.

So glad yours did.

Glad she is back! Our outside cat has neighborhood cat friends, and sometimes we won't see one of them for months and we wonder what happened to him/her, and then there he/she is again, on our fence!

Her right eye appears to have some discharge -- or maybe it's just a shadow. Here's hoping you can get close enough to check her over.

She took off across the street when she first saw me. I'm so afraid she will dash out in front of a car.

At least with the kittens I can clean their eyes and apply medication.

His brother, Snowdon, was here this morning but he's completely feral.

I won't give up hope Merlin will turn up, again. At least all of the girls were here, this morning, and their eyes looked clear. I didn't see Tegan until last night.
