This morning my “Ring” doorbell kept pinging my phone, telling me that there was someone at my door. I used the app to check but could not see anyone. Finally I opened my door and found a beautiful medium haired, cream colored cat with mocha spots on his body and mocha stripes on his legs. He had a shorter than normal tail, hinting perhaps a Manx was somewhere in his ancestry.
When I opened the door he simply stepped into the house and proceeded to tour the place. He went everywhere; smelled everything. Finally after looking in the washroom, he left me a small present in the hall, then he started to vocalize softly. I took him back to the front door , opened it, and he left.
Unfortunately I did not think to get a picture of him, but he was wearing a collar. I think the name was “Louis” and I was unable to read what was on the other side of the tag.
“Louis” was both friendly and beautiful. I hope the owner finds him and keeps him inside. I personally have seen a bear, many coyotes and a Bobcat in my yard. I would hate for “Louis” to end up as a snack for the predators in our area.
As a final note: If “Louis” shows up on my doorstep again I am very tempted to buy some Kitty Litter and keep “Louis”. He is a beautiful cat.
This is “Louis”. A neighbor sent me his picture.
