Cats

Wile E. the Cat: Vancouver, BC

Wile E. the Cat: Vancouver, BC

Wile E. under his favourite tripod/platform. He’s catching some warmth from the skylight that’s above him. He wishes that he was an outdoor cat so he could go and sniff the bushes and flowers… Except that the few times his owner let him out, on a leash, he was afraid of the noise of the leave rustling in the wind.

Missing Cat Sign

Missing Cat Sign

Helios, the cat, has gone missing.

Lately, there’s been a lot of missing cat signs. If Helios’ owners can find him within a couple of days of him disappearing then the cat will be OK.

Some Cats Own the Place

Some Cats Own the Place

Some cats live in a place. They are just residents, they go through a place. They have a bed, a bowl to drink and to eat but these cats are just residents.

Some cats own the place where they live. This happens more often with indoor cats, but not with all indoor cats.

The desk becomes their place and the humans have to work around them.

Cat & The Last Few Sunny Days

Cat & The Last Few Sunny Days

It’s fall, it’s sunny and the days are getting shorter. It’s getting colder and the cats know it. There are a lot less cats roaming the streets. Even indoor cats know that it’s the fall and they take advantage of the last few rays of the sun by basking on the window ledge.

I walk by this apartment complex almost everyday, and this cat is in the window only when it’s sunny in the winter, spring and fall. She (I guess) is never in the window during the summer.

Cat Starring Intensely

Cat Starring Intensely

This window is at street level and occasionally this cat is in the window in front of the curtain. My guess is that the curtain is there for privacy.

This cat is not looking at me, nor looking at my camera. This cat is starring at my dog which is waiting very patiently at my side until I’m done with the photo so we can resume our walk.

Watching the World Go By

Watching the World Go By

This cat is a “cool cat”. He’s sitting on top of the fence and he’s watching the world go by, actually me and my dog walking by him.

This image is a wide angle. We, my dog and I, were about 1½ meters away or about 5 feet. This cat is not afraid. He’s at full attention. You can see it in the eyes and the ears but he has no intention to attack or to flee away. If that was the case, the eyes would be “full saucer” and the ears would be sideways. He’s very sure of himself. In fact, this cat lives just next door but he doesn’t wear any collar.

Smart Cat v. Dumb Cat

Smart Cat v. Dumb Cat

These two cats couldn’t be any more different from each other but they are brother and sister.

Collie or Kolly, the male at the front, is a very dumb cat. The female, Molly, at the back, is a lot smarter. If there’s any danger, Molly goes back into the yard, near the cat door where she can go back in for protection.

High Wire Act: Vancouver, BC

High Wire Act: Vancouver, BC

This Siamese cat was laying on the fence. He saw me coming while walking with my dog.

He was at the back on the fence and when we walked by, he came closer to inspect the situation, most likely my dog.
