So far Bernie and I have met the two cats next door: there is a grey striped tall cat and a black and white cat.
The cats saunter through the yard, down the side of the house and along the fence. Snow doesn't even phase them.
There is a brown mackerel tabby too that muscles his way through the snow out back.
When we see him and call, he splits immediately. I think he thought no one lives here.
The grey and the black ones are our neighbor Bob's cats.
Bob's cats seem very interested in us.
We can always tell when Bob's cats are passing by just by watching our cats react.
I think eventually they all might become very good friends.
