This summer we've been befriending this cat, whom we've dubbed Guy Noir. He has half a tail, a tough-guy swagger, and a heart of gold. On Monday we got him to the vet and had him neutered and since then, he's showing all signs of being a great pet. He's still pretty jittery and rarely relaxes completely. But he's getting there. He prefers to spend his nights outside still, but I expect that to change in the fall when it starts to get chilly at night.
In other news, I've been working on getting Knitcircus #7 ready for the printers between battles on the domestic front. It's all coming together nicely!
Don't forget, Alt Knitting Camp happens August 2-4, at Devil's Lake State Park, campsite #110. We still have room for 6 more overnight campers, and day visitors are welcome, especially if they bring some goodies to share with the pack! Just email me at elizabethmorriso (at) gmail (dot) com.

Awwww, he looks like a sweetie.
Love your cat - he looks quite a bit like our Blackie (shared with one of my daughters). I love tomcats, neutered or no.
Mmm...I have a soft spot for black katzes!
I had a cat like that for awhile. He was mostly white with a few black markings and tough as nails/soft as butter. Unfortunately, when I moved he would not come along. Alt. Knitting Camp. Yippee!
Once upon a time we had a big black cat named Sophie. She swaggered around, kinda like Sophie Tucker, and basically ruled our roost. She might have made a good companion for Guy Noir (great name!), but alas, she's gone to the Great Kitty-Beyond.
