Charlie cat on a flat roof...

This cat is called Charlie, and belongs to a friend. Although we have not yet been formally introduced I can imagine that we'll get on pretty well. I met her yesterday whilst she was peering at me over the lip of her (or should I her owners') flat kitchen roof. She looks super cute and although the picture is yet another scruffy phone snap I quite like the silhouette of her tiny cat face against the grey sky. This is the second animal I have seen in the last few months perched on a roof. I shall keep a beady eye out for more. A horse preferably next time.

Cat in the hedge

The 'neighbours' who live above me have a cat who has recently had kittens. Much to my delight they have spent the last few weeks playing on the flat roof of our kitchen, where the upstairs living room opens out onto. They are super cute and particularly fun to watch as they are forever trying to get up onto things then down off of them but too tiny to do either properly. The mum cat just looks on lazily in some sort of amusement (well I like to think). The other day I was pinning up the washing and heard a scrabbling sound and noticed this little one checking out the hedge...
