Friday the 13th

Today is the second and last Friday the 13th in 2007.

Most of the feral cats on my block are black, to the dismay of the superstitious folks around here. They live in a little patch of urban forest behind a Crescent Avenue house and panhandle around the block.

One is the winsome, semi-socialized girl known as Little Kitty.

The cats like to hang out in an old rusty backhoe in the Crescent Avenue yard. This one is at the wheel, playing landscape contractor.

Here's a black cat from Seattle being just a bit sinister.
