I’ve seen cats up and down the trail today. One gray cat was trying his best to chase a squirrel up a tree but couldn’t get his feet off the ground. He finally gave up the chase and sat by the tree looking up at me as if it was all my fault, He waited for me to get out my phone and get his picture and was still sitting there watching as I went on up the trail. It was early and the trail was shaded so I didn’t get too hot . Later in the the cool of the evening I walked down to the picnic area to finish my steps and there sat a large white cat staring at me. He looked very comfortable and watched me finish my walk. He let me take his picture on my way out. I hope all my Mylot friends had a good day. The sun has set and it’s almost dark. I’m about to pack up from the deck and go inside. I’ll see you all tomorrow if nothing breaks bigger than a frog hair.

Are these feral cats? It sounds a nice area for them to be in.

No, they aren’t feral. They are well taken care of, I think they’re allowed to come and go as they please. Dogs are not. They are only allowed out with a person and a leash.

Sadie saw a cat on our walk this morning, and almost flipped her little lid. I love the picture you included; it is such an adorable cat.

Wednesday here and there's a heavy downpour as expected. I'm afraid that some places are under water again.

That's a really nice shot of that poor kitty, he must have been declawed if he couldn't chase a squirrel up a tree.

No, he has his claws , they probably wouldn’t sink into the thick bark.

This cat looks scared, I think it's a feral cat. I only see cats in their owners gardens when we walk.

@RubyHawk It is the same here, cats can be let outside, but they must be neutered.

@LadyDuck I have no idea if these cats are neutered, they could be. They are beautiful cats.

No, it isn’t feral. It’s friendly and well fed. It lives in an apartment nearby. I see it when I’m passing by. Cats can be let outside but not dogs. They must be on a leash led by a person.

I cannot help laughing a lot at your expression: "all my fault......."

The cat in the image looks so much amused! Could you also share the white cats' picture? Have these cats seen you before? And seems like these feline creatures are "camera ready"

Have a nice Sunday!!

@allknowing I suppose cats are seen around homes too. No homes are that close to my apartment complex, but people here own cats.
