Mr Coon Cat stops by
Big handsome gray cat
This giant gray cat stops by from time to time, another regular in the neighborhood. He is as big as a raccoon, and the same color, so it would be quite hard to tell them apart in the dark.
My cats like to watch the action from the window, and I call them over if I spot a cat or squirrel they would like to see. No deer in the backyard here, but moles and raccoons are around, and the odd possum.
It is possible that this visitor is a Maine Coon cat, the oldest native cat breed in America. Wikipedia has a nice article about the history and origins of the breed. I will have to observe closely to see if those big paws have the polydactyl extra toes the breed sometimes exhibits.
