This semi-daily visitor to our backyard finally held still long enough for me to take his picture with my iPhone. Male? I think so because he didn’t run away while pressing his face against the back door (probably to antagonize Molly, the alpha cat in the house) which gave me the opportunity to look him over. He’s quite large (I guess 13-15 pounds) and jowly around the face. The jowls are usually an indicator of an un-neutered male. Hence is he trying to ask Kuroneko or Miette on a date? Maybe his real name is Petruchio and he thinks he can woo the headstrong Molly. I think Petruchio will be his moniker until I can find proof of another name.
The next goal will be to capture another movie of Molly doing her “thing” should he visit again. He won’t stick around to let us feed him or put together a warm spot for him to sleep during this crummy conditions in Central Texas.
