....sit and watch whilst the old tom cat from up the road comes by and eats their dinner! Toby belongs to a near neighbour but believes in dining out - he's a sort of feline hobo, all grizzled and flea-bitten but a great character with a cute grey/white face. He considers that because of his grand old age he has a right to wander and eat where he wishes. As he's also stone deaf, there's no point in telling him to buzz off! Millie and Meg, my two cats, don't seem to object to him eating their dinner although I suspect they have little choice in the matter! If there's no food in the dish, Toby will come indoors and stare at whoever's at home in a most accusing way until he gets fed! Once he's eaten, he wanders up the road to see what's on offer elsewhere....
