The coast seemed clear for now so I nipped out to water what plants haven’t died, and saw the black cat come strolling out of a corner where he’d been napping.
Offered him my fingertip for a smoochy rub and patted his head. He seems to be quite comfortable hanging around here and after I went back in to soothe Melbcat he came to the screen door as if he hoped to come inside.
I’m worrying a bit about neglect but I’m really not in a position to adopt a second cat ;-;
