I bought a powerful LED headlamp. Took it for a ride after dark two
nights ago. It was warm out but having the thing strapped to my
forhead at eye level, it is so powerful I could see what looked like
moderate to heavy snowfall that was probably actually teeny tiny
specks of pollen. It was not mist, unfortunately.

Perhaps more importantly... In my peripheral vision, in the light's
outer coverage area, without turning my head to look, I could see all
the little pairs of cat eyes peering at me on the way to the store.

The modern LED headlamp is like having car headlights strapped to
your forhead.


How do you know that they are stray cats?


It wasn't difficult.

I ask this as a Brit who doesn't have any stray cats near me (wish I
did as I'd like another)


How do you know that?


How do I know I haven't stray cats near me? Probably because they're not
there..
