Yes, we have a new adoptee. She moved in a couple of years ago with neighbours 2 doors down and I'd seen her around a lot. However, since they took on a dog she'd been spending most of her time out of doors and because they'd been renovating their house she always seemed to have some plaster or other gunk stuck to her coat
The boys started playing with her during the long summer holidays, they'd lie on the ground and she'd head-rub and head-bump them for ages. And then she started coming in and helping herself to Myshka's food. As she was very skinny I didn't mind too much.
Since then, she's completely made herself at home. She sleeps on or under the bed, scraps with Myshka, sits on our laps and occasionally when she's had enough, she'll give a sharp nip or claw swipe.
The neighbours don't seem to bothered - not sure if they know she's with us but nobody's come around, and no posters have gone up. She comes and goes to the outdoors on a daily basis, but never really ventures far from the confines of the garden. She's a real little sweetie, she's no spring chicken and I suspect she's just looking for a quiet life . . . and 2 kids are better then the 3 + dog she left behind!
Here she is with Sebi . . .
And here she is in repose . . .
