So my dog these days is a cat. Large, white, indifferent, infinite. I think he was abandoned here in the neighborhood some 7 or so years ago. He's not a feral but he is quite independent. He comes in and I feed him and give him a place to chill in the summer and warm up in the winter when he will occasionally stay in all night. Mostly at night he wants to be outside where he violently defends his territory against all usurpers. I do wish he wouldn't, though. His face and ears are a mess and I think his tear ducts are damaged because they ooze a watery blood sometimes. I don't think his opponents have fared very well either. I've been woken up a few times by the sounds of battle in the wee hours.
He has other friends with my neighbors but he mostly hangs around here. I call him Whitey, but he will come to pretty much any call. I have a lot of compassion for him. Abandonment is the worst. It carries different scars, man or beast. I do love him though. He can be affectionate but I wouldn't call him cuddly. I wish he would let me help him more but he is not a ready recipient. Someday I hope to get him to a vet but for now he wants things just like they are. I can respect that.
I hate the sound of cats fighting. Out here you never know if it's just cats or if it's
a pack of coyotes a bobcat or some other wildness happening. Bizarre shrieking.
Cats sound like babies from hell sometimes. Good man for taking care of Whitey.

awww. he adopted you. if you get him neutered, he will chill out a bit. We have a "feral" recovering from dental surgery in our basement. Her name is Momma She lives in our yard and has become quite friendly with me. she will follow me all around the yard while I garden. or we'll take a break and cuddle on the bench. I love her to bits.
Yes that's the plan as soon as I can afford it. I am hoping it will curb that fighting impulse. I'm not really sure how old he is but he's up there. He deserves a little peace and fatness.

Unfortunately the site I found the picture on didn't say where it was taken. It does look like someplace in The Alps though. * edit: A poster on a Reddit page that had the photo said it is Hallstatt.
Thanks...thought so. We were there in the summer, but the steep cliffs running into the water suggested it might be. What you can't see is that the hill to the left of the cat is probably 1,000+ feet almost straight up. The entire (small) town is built at the base of mountains all around. Google it...the images are amazing.
EDIT...if you google it, one of the first pictures actually shows the tower in the cat picture from the water.
