Big Spooky Halloween Cat

My cat is big and he is black like the cat in the picture. But he is not very frightening. He is actually a fraidy cat. He once spent a day and a half up in a tree because visitors brought their dog. The dog was gone for hours before he came down. The cat has a cozy bed right under the heater in the garage. A few mornings I went to let him in and a stray cat was curled up in his bed. My cat was sleeping outside. Yesterday I cleaned his bed and found mouse droppings in his bed. Now I am picturing him curled up with the mice. Or just giving them his bed and sleeping somewhere else

You have a heater in the garage? Is that just for him?

I say garage, my husband says workshop. It is heated for hubby. He works on various projects there. Paint, etc. can't freeze. There is no room for cars in the garage.

@paigea Oh right, that makes sense. Our garage is for our car, though we do keep a freezer in there and gardening tools. Also my husband's mobility scooter.

@jaboUK Hubby calls it his shop. No pretense that it will ever be for my car.

He is a lover not a fighter, might need more of his kind in this world.

He is. He only loves us. And only on his terms. No picking him up.

I would have climbed the tree to sit with the cat.

@paigea Oh I really feel for him, as I'm afraid of dogs. Maybe I would need to bring a cat.

I wonder what he would have done. I stood under the tree and talked to him and he went higher to where he looked so uncomfortable! I wonder if he can get used to dogs that visit now and then.

@Fishmomma I am just thinking what to do next time a dog comes here. Did a dog scare you before?

He can always go in the heated garage. He has his kitty door. And if someone takes his bed he still has plenty of warm space.

Your cat is probably welcoming the stray cat.

What a lovely character your cat is but he probably wouldn't make it in the big bad world outside.

No he wouldn't. And I guess that is why he strayed away from the neighbour's barn. They have a varity of fowl including geese, pheasants. He was probably terrified.

Ha maybe he's a very considerate and kind cat- or maybe he's a scaredy cat like you say-ha!

I am wondering if he likes sharing his bed ir if he is just to timid to stand his ground.

Lol! That's Cute. My kitty is about 14 years old. She will watch field mice play but won't bother them. I can so see a mouse snuggling a kitty in cold weather. Nature surprises people everyday

I think black cats are the sweetest cats. I'm not a cat person, but my friend had a black cat that I loved, he was amazing.
