Mysterious Mama Cat comes for the food and the sunshine

2019-01-17 - Downtown Columbia, KY - Photo by Linda Waggener, ColumbiaMagazine.com
This is the feral town cat "Mama Cat," named because in her younger days she was too wild to catch and spay and was always pregnant and near starvation. She's always been afraid of people and every loud noise, but she will stop here briefly because there's cat food and a safe spot of sunshine on the porch shelf on a clear day. In 2017, thanks to Mitzi Bault and a live trap and good Vet, she was spayed and no longer has to mother babies. She is healthy now but still insists on no touching - just the food, quiet safe shelf and sunshine, thank you. I thought of this recent photo moment when I read Carol Perkins' question in this week's article, "Where's your quiet space?" - LW
