Ferals have formed a little outlaw civilization in Riverside Park, just south of the Soldiers’ and Sailors’ Monument. Every morning before dawn, while most humans in the neighborhood are still asleep, the dozen animals that comprise this pack emerge from the park and line up on the stone wall along Riverside Drive in anticipation of the arrival of their prime benefactor, a local doorman who feeds them wet food before his morning shift.

Today, Bill the Cat was outside for a few minutes to enjoy some air and a little grass, while I harvested a little more catnip. For a 19 year old he does pretty darn good. He’s seriously into head-butting and he’s not shy about demanding food or slapping around other catnip-imbibing cohorts.
And in other news, I just finished the top for my challenge piece. I’m liking it. I just can’t show you pictures or talk about it until later this month. Sorry.
