The second new feline resident – in alphabetical order – in Berlin is Pumpkin, a beauty in orange and white.

I’ve been keeping a secret – I’ve been sitting on a triple digit amount of cat photos for over a year and it’s finally time to post some of them. They are all from Berlin where two cats have joined our family in February last year and they have helped us through some difficult times. This is Baghira, the little almost-black one-eyed kitty back in early 2025 taking good care of the humans.

One more photo for #Caturday of the nice orange kitty I saw in the backyard in May.

It’s been years since I posted a cat photo, but a couple of weeks ago I spotted this beautiful orange cat walking around the backyard and was lucky to capture two photos with the help of the SX70’s 65x zoom from the balcony!

This orange cat was loafing on the backyard lawn – and also watching another cat, hence the twitching tail and the occasional hiss! Sorry, no sound because there was nothing to hear at that distance.
There’s also the alternative Youtube upload as usual.

This cat was sitting under the Maple tree and seemed to be communicating with it… what it actually did was watching the fascinating birdlife high up in the branches!

Someone’s still got quite a bit of an undercoat going! :-)

One of the backyard cats was making the rounds over the garage roofs.

This is Leo, one of the backyard cats. He was just sitting down there, looking at me up on the balcony – and of course I couldn’t help taking a photo :-).

This seems an appropriate photo for World Cat Day – those two were having a territorial dispute on the grass in front of the balconies, but it was peacefully resolved (the black one retreated!).
