It's October, and perfectly on cue, the big black furball has decided he needs to go outside.
Yes, in a neighborhood with a bunch of BB-gun and paintball-armed juvenile delinquents, on Friday the 13th, two weeks before Halloween, who else but Mister "Look at me I'm a big black cat!" would decided that he needs to explore?
Usually I can leave the garage door open all day and he won't move more than a foot past the edge. He won't even cross the driveway on most days.
But on Friday the 13th, he decided to try to make his own bad luck. And I ended up late for a meeting after chasing him down for half an hour.
Fortunately, he is usually quite happy to sit on my upstairs railing looking down on us lowly creatures in the living room. Unlike me, he prefers to be up above the crowd:

HE WHO MUST BE OBEYED!

"OBEY THE CAT"

Nice muted palette.

Thanks, I had to play with the photo a bit to make him appear as something other than a black blob. Photographing a black cat against a white background is challenging at best, impossible at worst.

Photographing 2 black cats is even moreso. Both Bear and Gimi were on my desk tonight & I tried to catch a shot of them. I took about 8 and hopefully at least one will come out.
