Somebody is making himself at home

Gwyn is getting very comfortable with me. When I walk out the back door, he comes running up to me. His siblings are still a bit shy but Eira has shortened the distance she keeps. Mysterio still stays back a bit. I think the more I hold Gwyn, they will get more they will see me as a non threat.

And this little boy might just be making the connection between you and the house cats. He might be wanting to go in! That would also help convince him to be more approachable.

And if I drum my fingers on the deck, little Mysterio approaches. He's not quite up to the lick and nibble bit yet, but I bet he will be, soon. They watch VERY CLOSELY when Gwyn is on my lap.

Not quite as big as Arthur's, but noticeable.

He must be Arthur's cousin or nephew. Can't remember who Arthur's mother is.

These kittens are Skittish's grand-kittens. Scooter is the lone survivor of the first litter I saw. The other kittens were Spooky Jr., Tuxie and Mttens the Kitten.

I didn't get much sleep last night and my brain is short circuiting.

Spooky always stayed someplace east of my house and I suspect Bruiser is NOT the father of her kittens. I don't know if there is any connection between Skittish and Spooky but I suspect not.
