It's that cat again. It just does not mew

I wrote a post on this stray that visits us every day. It is over a month now and I have still not heard it mew. I wonder if it is mute. Every time I open the kitchen door no matter how early it is, I find him there waiting for that saucer of milk I give him every day. He does not let me touch him - he runs away. He is back at lunch time. I think he hovers around in the garden and even spends his night in the garden. I am a sad soul

Does it open its mouth like it is trying to mew? If not, I guess he just has nothing to say...

May be something like my nephew when he was tiny. He just would not talk and there was a comment made then that he did not require to speak as he got everything without asking for it. He was a spoilt brat (lol)

i think a silent stray cat that just sits there and stares at you is just as intriguing as a persistent stray cat that meows and prowls nonstop. cats are devious.

You have a point there as I have never loved a stray as much as I have this one.

@hereandthere And how!!!! My sis in law always gave more to her youngest as he never demanded. As a matter of fact he did not speak until he was 3 I think (lol)

@allknowing that 'nondemanding ploy' gets you just as effectively, right?

My heart goes out to him each time I see him at the door.

The cats usually only meow to communicate with humans. May be he does not want to communicate because he knows that you feed him anyway.

This cat is different compared to all the strays that have come here so far. One before this would announce his arrival by meowing right from the gate till he reached the kitchen door

@allknowing The cat of my neighbor almost never meows, only the few times he realized I am not noticing his presence.
