1198/365 - Nightly Visitors
We have two dog dishes that we put outside and fill with bread, corn, or other various treats for wildlife. At our old apartment we'd get quite a few squirrels and the occasional bird. The place I lived before that I'd get all sorts of wildlife, including geese.
So I didn't think anything of setting out the dog dishes and filling them once more. I love providing entertainment for the cat.
And what entertainment we attracted! I haven't seen a raccoon in years and certainly not since I've moved to the Grand Rapids area. Imagine my surprise when I heard the cat furious clawing at the slider one night and came down to see one chowing down on the deck.
They aren't exactly what I was trying to lure toward the slider for the cat, but they are adorable and they are entertaining him.
We've cut back drastically on putting anything outside now but the cat still camps out every night waiting for them. And they come by almost every night - even no food has been left out. Just in case.
*spec n: In the hope of success but without any specific commission or instructions.

Jenn took this picture of the cat in front of a Wolverine standee I have. I won this at a comic shop when I was 13. It had been in the back of my closet in the apt for about 15 years. It's hanging out in the office for abit, before it probably goes into the back of another closet for 15 more years :)
