Friday open thread: not your cat

Today's open thread is sparked by the return of this cat, which has been roaming all over our garden (and all the gardens in this row, and along the roof of our house) these past few days. On Tuesday, a delivery driver knocked on our front door, and the cat, which had evidently been lying in the sun on the front garden's paving stones, dashed into the house, alternating between snuggling around my legs and refusing to leave.

In honour of this incorrigible cat, talk to me about neighbourhood animals who have adopted you as their own.
