Kitty is on a play date.

Kitty slept on my floor last night next to my bed. I left the door cracked, in case she had to go hunting. This morning I heard a cat conversation happening outside. Kitty's boyfriend was at the bottom of the stairs, politely asking if she could come out and play. She followed me inside to ask if it was OK. I fed her a bit, she ate while her boyfriend waited, and then she was gone. I hope they're having Big Kitty Fun.

They clip one ear of feral cats who have been "fixed." Her ear has been clipped, so some previous adoptee must have taken her in.

@marguicha I was just watching them play, as I was driving off to run errands. I'm not sure I could figure out what their "game" was.

I thought for a moment the cat looks like it jumps at the photo, like maybe something surprised it from the floor and the real floor is just a wall with a colorful wallpaper. The cat looks like it is in the middle of a jumping, looking down to see maybe a mouse touched it legs.

@TheHorse there are many youtube videos of cats jump scared of cucumbers. They jump in a way that they look down and arc their back like this. That's why I thoughy the cat was jumping.

Can I have some of the mushrooms you've been having? Heh! Actually, I was talking to my brother on the phone, casually filling up her food bowl, and she came running up the stairs. She drinking water now and will tell me about her play date later, I'm sure.

She's supposedly "fixed," but ever since our two male hamsters had babes many years ago, I'm never sure of anything.

Is eaten? Or HAS eaten? Both kittiess are technically "feral," but I think her boyfriend has someone who looks out for him too.

The two kitty boys come inside together, they play a bit in MY kitchen, then ask for food and go outside to eat.

@TheHorse I went outside to wash their bowl half an hour ago, they came inside and one of the two wanted more food. Later they will go together to sleep in the house of the orange tabby. He is the one who still has owners. The other is now half my cat and half their cat.

@LadyDuck Owners? You mean slaves! Kitties rule the human world. As long as the kitties are happy, I'm happy. But I don't think I'll invite her boyfriend into my house. Two kitties here is too much for me.
