Last night Jessica befriended a cat in the yard. We’ve been on high alert in Two Dot, after Judy’s stroke, she left perhaps 40 cats unattended. Yesterday we had confirmed that a resident is trapping them and shooting them. I’ve seen a couple, they are skittish, nearly feral, and un-catchable. But this cat walked right up to Jessica...another wayfarer. They are sleeping together in the guest studio with a dirt litter box, a dog dish of water and a saucer of milk. Today we will put up a notice to see if he belongs to anyone. Meanwhile he and Jessica make companions of one another. Perhaps we have saved one cat.
