As I was tending chickens, I saw my neighbor’s tuxedo cat easing over toward the coop. Then I spotted Sophie (who is the only one we pay vet bills for) crouched behind the water fountain, and saw her run out to confront the intruder. Meanwhile, Mr Tom (from the neighbor’s house on the other side), is laying low, watching the shenanigans. If Sophie had spotted him first, she would have run him off as well. Sophie has the privilege of coming inside our house, where she is most of the time. I think the other cats are easing into her territory because she does hang out inside. I would rather she be an inside cat and not fight. All cats pictured have been spayed and neutered.
