Friday. Finally.

Hard week, glad it's over.  It's finally Friday.

Not a moment too soon.

Maggie agrees.  She made a new friend today.  There is a cat in the neighborhood that may be a pet, or more likely, is a barn cat that one of the neighbors brought to control the "pests" in the neighborhood.  Yeah, like squirrels and birds!  We've actually been considering trapping it and giving it to the city, they have a program where they provide traps and then the cats are taken to the shelter - our shelter is pretty good and tries to find homes.  But this morning, I let Magsters out in the back yard for a few minutes and when I went out to get her she was interested in something under the tree.  Which I could not see, but she was locked in on.  That can mean snake or something unpleasant.  So I went over to the tree and she was nose to nose with the cat.  The cat was happy to see her and they seemed to be getting along.  I called her (a few times) and finally grabbed her collar and aimed her to the door.  She went willingly, but slowly.  The cat followed her for a few steps.  I guess we'll see over the next few days if there are any issues with the cat, but we have already wondered if it might be coming in Maggie flap door.
