Our Pasadena Community Cat
A couple of years ago a magnificent young tomcat began coming by my house, vividly orange with symmetrical circular markings and orange eyes. Initially, he came to see our 20-year-old female cat, but wouldn’t let me or my son near him. He was wary of humans, but he kept visiting, irregularly, even after our cat died; he uncannily showed up for her burial. Mr. Orange, as we called him, filled our cat needs; we fed him and he came to trust us. My neighbor Mo, another cat-lover, watched for him as well, and we reported sightings to each other. He would come to my door and then see Mo and hop along the fence and up to her roof where she petted him through the window and gave him treats. But he would disappear for a day or two and clearly had other options. We asked each other, “Where does he go when he doesn’t come to us? How is he always dry when it’s raining? Is he anyone’s cat? Why does he smell of perfume and have oil on his tail?” I wished he could tell us.
