Thank you. Belle is a great cat.
We wish to thank the United Network Command for Law and Enforcement, without whose assistance this program would not have been possible.
Funny stuff..
Bueller, our 8mo Shorthair, HATED vests. Trying to get an orange hunting vest on him this fall wore out me and the wife to near exhaustion. He was like an eel coated with grease. Fast forward to the other day. Temps were in the upper teens. We let him out for his morning pee. He took two steps out the door, stopped dead in his tracks, and looked at us like “Just WTF is THIS??” Left him out a few minutes longer on purpose. While he was out. Put a fleece dog vest (from the previous dog) next to the heat stove to get toasty.
Guess what is his new best friend now? Lol

Mischief Muppet (Winston)
They have become quite the pair.
Looks like we got Cat #3. This is the third one one in 3 years that just showed up and starting living here. I think they're putting up hobo signs, "These people will feed you →".
You are a good human!
Do you keep them outside only?
The coyotes here live pretty large of Fluffy roaming the hood. A neighbor had the prettiest orange fluffy cat that I used to watch hunt baby rabbits in my yard. The coyotes got him.
But it is not just kitties, the coyotes just ate my neighbors little toy poodle. The little guy went into the wood line and got eaten. I had a coyote come into the yard when I was sitting with my dogs, which are decent sized (2 GSDs and medium sized Golden Doodle). He escaped before I could get the dogs in the house and the 300 BO contender out of the safe. The Doodle thinks he is a coyote slayer.
The best way to have a cat is to be adopted by one. It's a blessing.

The first one, Checkers, was a little baby. Vet said 6, maybe 8 weeks old. He's been inside ever since, with no inclination to go outside. The second, Parcheesi, was initially not very friendly (he is now), about 6 months old we guessed, and has only been outside.
This one seems to be pretty well taken care of, and he wants to come in. So we'll see.
For coyotes, I hear them around at night but in 11 years have only actually seen 2 on my street. Once was when they snatched my neighbor's teacup terrier though.

"So strong is this propensity of mankind, to fall into mutual animosities, that where no substantial occasion presents itself, the most frivolous and fanciful distinctions have been sufficient to kindle their unfriendly passions, and excite their most violent conflicts." - James Madison, Federalist No 10
Strikingly similar to my doggo.

"... And miles to go before I sleep".
And the trail looks similar to one we use all the time.

My boy is in the picture if you look closely.
