There's a local cat, scruffy gray tabby with white paws, probably feral. Not at all friendly. Yesterday I saw it limping across the intersection, moving slow and with a front paw problem. Not a damned thing I can do to help it. Animal control officer is already working on neighborhood ferals, so this one is probably trap-shy. And we have a range of wild predators -- coyotes, foxes, bobcats, fishers, martens, even the eagles and large owls.

Keep your kitties inside, folks.
