Last night when I was putting food out, I saw the Siamese cat with the blue collar again. This time it was down at the spring. My regulars took notice of it and kept an eye on him(?). I'm not sure if it made it all the way to the feeding area. It looks healthy and cared for, so I don't plan to trap it unless it's appearance and habits change.
I did a parasite treatment on five cats - Smokey, Dan, Patrick, Thomas, and Bobbie. I still plan to get Minnie if the opportunity presents. Rita and Lina are becoming much more social with me lately, but are not ready to be handled. They wait for me near the back door in the morning and walk closely with me as I go to put the food out. Dan is trouble most mornings as he tries to play with me rubbing on my ankles and batting at my feet as I walk. He loves to be petted before I put the food out and will play after eating. This morning walking from the gate to the food bowls it was Dan, Smokey, Rita, Lina, and Minnie clustered around my feet as I walked. I felt like I had to slide my feet to keep from stepping on them.
The routine with Bobbie has become setting food for just her at the back door as I go to feed the others. When everyone else is fed, she pauses eating and I bring her remaining food to the cul de sac gate and place it outside the fence so the dogs don't eat it. This morning she hadn't arrived when I put the food out. Thomas came to check it out, but didn't eat. Soon after Thomas, Pablo came along down the road and Tom let him eat from the bowl. No sighting of OC or Sasha for a couple days, but they could easily be coming to the area when I'm not around to see them.
Pablo has very similar markings to Sasha, but has much wider spaced eyes, a longer stripe more centered on his back, and he's a male.
