My Outdoor Kitty

This is a photo of a stray cat that started to hang around my back yard this past Summer; and as you can see.. he is still here and getting fatter. I have food and water and a warm basket with a heating blanket in it for him to sleep. I have tried to coax him into the house, but he hates the hairless cats and the noise of the grandkids. When he first started to come around he would not even allow you to pet him. Now he allows me to bring him indoors and hold him for a few minutes and then he is ready to go outside. During the summer months, he shared his food with a skunk that would come around. Paul would get so mad at me for feeding the skunk. But he was so pretty and got "so, so fat" on kitty food. I haven't seen him since the weather has gotten colder and the snow has come. I love animals.
