My brother's Meezer kitty Samantha has been gone for several months now,
and Pat and Maggie the Springer have both been missing her. But it
appears that the Mothership has sent them some relief.

For the last couple of weeks a couple of kitties, a momcat and one of
her little ones, ahve been visiting Pat and Maggie every day. The momcat
comes closer to Pat and appears to have been a house kitty before, but
the little one is more skittish and still won't come too close.

They do come there every day, though, so looks like they might have
decided that Pat's place is theirs. Pat is working on getting them both
trapped so he can get them fixed.

And one of the most interesting things about the new momcat is one of
her habits. You might recall about Pat working on taming a feral cat he
named Mr. Grey, who went to the RB a year ago. Mr. Grey was getting
familiar enough with Pat that when he found his dish empty or when he
wanted company he would go to Pat's front window and tap on the glass.
The new momcat has started doing the same thing.

It will be interesting to see how long it takes to get them both
adjusted to people and ready to become indoor kitties.
