Miss Kitty

Miss Kitty

This is the sweet little feral cat that comes to visit.  Most mornings when I leave for work she is sitting under the palm tree by the door. She will patiently wait in this spot until food is brought out to her. In the morning she is usually alert and will not approach the bowl until you leave or step back a few feet. It is my suspicion that she has kittens somewhere because she is not gaining any weight and returns in the afternoon.

The Miss Kitty of the afternoon is a completely different animal.  She will walk by the door to see if we are home then go to her spot again and wait for more food. However, when we go to get the bowl she hisses at us!  As soon as the bowl is on the ground she is eating, we can sit next to the bowl and even touch it although we still get hissed at.  We laugh at how cranky she becomes and laugh at the "hissy fits" she has every afternoon!

It will be fun to see what comes of her in the next few months- our goal is to tame her enough so we can at least pet her.  I will say she is an easy pet- no messes and the only noise she makes is when she hisses at us in the afternoon! :)
