Bob, The Feral Cat, at Home

My sister Mary started this by photographing Bob’s new home on our front porch.

I went out tonight and captured the lights on Bob’s tree
Steve just took this photo. He’s not in the house but looks like he’s waiting for something.
Steve was able to get a photo of Bob peeking out of his home

Bob has his name, thanks to granddaughter Anna. Bob has no tail since birth. And he is fifteen years old which is way beyond normal life expectancy for a feral cat. He’s well cared for by Cat Daddy Steve.

Laura got that cat wreath for Steve at a church festival years ago. Believe it not, Bob has a handknit wool shawl inside this little cat home. There’s also capability for heat but it’s not cold enough yet.

Bob is ready for Christmas. we didn’t want to traumatize him by trying to entice him inside for the shoot

  1. A lovely post and a wonderful house and tree for Bob. We can’t believe Bob just showed up. We are cheering now that he is sitting on the chair and cozy in his home !! Merry Christmas, Bob.

  2. I guess Bob won’t waste any time chasing his tail. I wonder if during the day he checks out abandoned furniture? I hope Santa brings you some tuna for Christmas Bob. 🐈🐟dc

  3. I have to show this to my daughter and son-in-law. They rescued and found homes for kittens that a feral mama cat had in an old garage next to their property last summer. Now there are four older kittens who have gravitated to their front porch. Son-in-law provided a box with towels and an old blanket to give them a warm place and food and water. They are very skittish and we can’t get close to them without them running off.

    • Bob is accustomed to Steve and will let him hold him. Are they in a cold climate? Thanks for looking and sharing

      • Same climate as you have. They live a little northeast of Pittsburgh. They would really like to catch the mama cat and have her spayed, etc. but she’s very afraid of humans.

      • We caught Bob when he was young and took him to be fixed. But not easy when they are older

Thanks for your visit. It's always good to hear you stopped by.
