These are not all cats, currently living on this address ... and surroundings ... that I define, in a typically human, possessive way, as "my cats" ...
... but they have become the first really domestic feline bunch in this place.
Here is an enlargeable group portrait with the entire family in the frame. The mother, that was last domesticated, is a small cat and looks like part of the young bunch. She's the one scratching the neck above all of them. The big bottle in the background is filled with olive oil :) not an important detail ... but comes handy to break a bit the overdose of cat - talk that will characterize the whole post.
This feeding shot can render the idea and proportions even better ... and in the following video ...
... that was made some weeks earlier, when the young ones were much smaller, you can watch those cute faces in motion :) I made the video ... and the following few shots ...
... through the glass ...
... from my kitchen window.
On these photographs you can see the young male called Miles, he's looking at the camera in this shot ... and the female called Sivka.
Of course, at that time ...
... they didn't have these human - friendly names that I can easily pronounce ...
... and I didn't know ...
... that they will soon become my best friends.
I was just photographing some cute cats that appeared in my garden ...
... to put them on Facebook.
And so ...
... slowly ...
... through regular meetings at lunch ...
... and with the big help ...
... of the "Catch the rope" game ...
... a favorite sport of many cats, especially young ones ...
... we became real pals.
And that's it ... I think ...
... all I wanted to say ...
... have a good Caturday - Saturday, wherever on the planet you are.
As always in these posts on HIVE, all the photographs and Video materials are made by me.
