Another Feral Cat at the Allotments

Cats are wonderful, they are cleaner than some people !
It always amazes me too how cats living rough are so clean and how they keep their kittens clean also.
Betty you are obviously a true cat lover, you instictively know not to look directly at that cat, a lot of people wouldn't know that.
I'm sure eventually she will be as confident around you as the first cat you feed.
Well done you, I wish there were more people like you.

Thank you Finn, Ruth and Tracey for your kind comments.
I was very lucky to get the photo of the second cat. She isn't as confident with me as the first one but I find that so long as I don't look at her directly she does not run away.
I think it is remarkable that both cats look so clean, considering that they live outside in all weather.

Hi Betty

She's a lovely cat; she's so pretty. You really did her justice; I'm impressed with your photography.

Also how lovely of you to feed them.

What a beautiful cat,we'd call her a dark tortoishell and white and as Finn says,being that colour she is almost certainly a female cat.
It's very kind of you to feed those cats Betty.

Hi Betty. With those colours it is almost certainly a 'she'. It's in the genes that male cats can't have black with the red/orange. You can read more on the page about Calico Cats

Male tricolors are very rare and usually infertile. I once had one that I believed to be male, but eventually Carl had kittens 😉 You can see her at http://www.raarup.eu/carl-picture01-en.html - she looks almost like your new allotment cat.

Once again thank you for helping the ferals. They need it.
