Cinderello No More

See Mr Cinderello on the right of that image (the warrior one)?
I did take a picture of him waiting for his food outside our door, but the photo was half dark, half light and however I tried, I couldn't edit it properly, hence this photo instead.
The good news is, Cinderello is a Stray no more, a well off family has adopted him, giving him a fancy name, something similar to WufWuf or RuffRuff. Regardless, Cinderello still returns to our place weekly (a few times), begging for our cats' leftovers, then heads back to his new house (his new adoptive parents and I contact each other often whenever he stays at our place for too long in dreadful weather).
---
Image above: Tuxedo Kitten (not ours) is being told off by Cinderello since Tuxedo stalks Cinderello often.
NB. I think it is a case of finder keeper with Cinderello, whoever is his real owner, didn't bother register or feed him properly. I think Cinderello still visits his real owner every now and then (his new and fancy collar from the new owner, was removed so soon after he got it).

He is an expensive cat, about several hundred dollars worth. I would have grabbed him for ourselves but for four reasons: we have already had two cats here; that Siberian Forest cat is a giant cat which eats 5 big meals a day; he seems to love freedom and often brings back fleas & last, our cats fought with him while defend their fortress and city, but lost badly...

Some seniors like having pets but don't want to pay for their pets' yearly registration fee, so they do things like that. Unfortunately in this case, since they like to let the neighbors feeding their pets too. That couple jumps in and registers/microchips that Russian cat, so officially, they have that Siberian Forest now. (That cat is an expensive one, several hundred dollars worth!)

You should see them both. They spent 10 minutes singing opera to each other, a metre apart (must be a Romeo & Juliet piece or something similar) then the gangster jumped on the Tuxedo, wrestling the poor kitten.
The odd thing was, the Tuxedo kitten looked like he was hypnotised by that Siberian Forest cat. (I was standing 2m away from them both, telling the Tuxedo to run fast, but he was frozen in fear. I thought of jumping in to scoop the little one out of the way but decided not to interfere in the end. That gangster chased that kitten away, then returned soon after, asking for another plate of wet food. )

Wow, Cinderello gets around . Nice that he is well fed but too bad the original owners did not seem to care for him more. In the past couple months, we have noticed 4 cats coming through our backyard regularly. . . I had not seen them before . . . I don't know who's cats they are, but I think they just come to frolic in the weeds with the birds .

That couple seems to be quite well off. They even give that cat his own bedroom (so that he won't be bullied by their other cats). I briefed them of that cat's favourite wet and dry food, and convinced them that as long as they got those types of food right, that cat won't head to my place ever again. (That Cinderello only came 2 times last week hahaha.)
