This morning, check the camera at the food bowl to see if he was around last night.
Umm.
( image follows )
( food bowl was pulled out and spilled earlier, its sitting there behind the raccoon )
Heh, I'm surprised that didn't happen to you sooner. Possums and raccoons (especially raccoons) will rob you blind.
This reminds me of a bumper sticker I once saw. It had a picture of a possum and said "True patriots brake for America's only native marsupial."
I even brake for bugs.. or at least try to avoid them. ( like in spring when we get roads full of those little fuzzy rollypollys )

DA BABY?
Well that was freaking scary.
Heard mewing out my window. Look out to see the 'feral' walking around my peach tree. No big deal, was going to go out and visit. THEN i saw a huge black long hair cat walking up the other side. ( not threatening just walking ) and it looks 100% like one of mine..... Panic.. run around the house looking for a screen that fell out or door left open and trying to find my cat..
But no.. mine is in the dog kennel safely sleeping ( i dont know why, but he likes it in there. both cats do, and prefer to drink the water in there ... ). so we have a new cat in the area.
He has been known to jump the back fence of 6'... so hes not allowed outside.
( kennel as we still have the issue of one dog being aggressive if there is no 'gate' .. so one has to sleep in there at night. That way one is not in another room at night and both can sleep in the same room with me. but shes still super friendly as long as there is some sort of barrier. i wish i understood )
So seen these 2 cats several times together today. Went out a bit ago and both came over for dinner while i was standing there... They were hiding in my bushes. The one i know, that is normal to hide in the bushes, but never seen this black cat before today, now it acts like it lives here. 5 mins ago it was stretched out on my front step.
Checked with the owner of the one i know, and its not hers..( long story, but i finally got her phone number a couple of weeks ago . dont know her name tho.. )

You smooth dog!
Longer version is i caught her in her driveway. i ran ( literally ) over with a small bag of food and 2 cans .. stuck my number to one of the cans. She never answers her door the little bit of time she is at home once or twice a week so i got lucky.
Its also how i found out his real name, seems the other neighbor had it wrong. I came up to her car " this is for so and so, bla bla we care and if you ever need any help with him here is my number" and she looked at me like i was nuts at first. Then is said "you know, your cat" and she was ok and lit up with a thank you, later she texted me and used his name, "ah, that explains why you were so confused when i came over.. lol. "
