We had an unexpected visitor at our house after lunch today. I was at the kitchen sink washing dishes, looked out the window and there was a cat laying on the deck. I held Katie up to see it and tapped on the window expecting it to run away, but it just laid there. We peeked at it through the door and I even brought Will over to see her. I thought "she'll run away once Will starts screaming at her and banging the window." Nope - if anything she wanted to come INSIDE. She meowed at the door, put her paws to the window, etc. It was very cute. I took some pictures so you could see her...she reminds me of Jane - a cat that Jim and Grandma Mary had out at the farm. Also reminds me of Smokey, a cat Grandpa and Grandma Lyla had - except I think she was a girl. No collar, no tags so I'm not sure where she came from.
A little later we went downstairs so Will could take a nap and after a while - there she was peering in the window. :) Katie kept saying "I wish we had a kitty." I explained we don't know this cat so we can't let it inside, and I think Betty (fish) is scared of cats (thankfully). I haven't seen her for an hour or so, so she probably went on to her next house...it was a nice visit though.

Oh my that is a bit spooky isn't it? Looks just like smokey for sure. Sure is cute though. Haven't seen Will sit that still for awhile. Love ya, Mom
Kitty would leave Betty alone. I think you need a kitty. really. :)
I agree with shelly! How can you tell those adorable children NO :)

well, you know we're practically a supermarket of cats down here-- all sizes ages colors etc-- & the one thing they all common is their adaptability.
that and I'm pretty certain they don't know what a fish is...

Deb, everyone in the family has cats, mom and dad had quite a few yrs ago, but smokey, and sami were the only house cats, jeff has two, I have two, and denise has one, and do not forget John's family, from what I hear there is alot there also. so I really do think you need a kitty, looks like the cat would let will do whatever and would not care. I agree with denise how can you tell those kids NO.
Love,
Janet
