Trash Cat

Somewhere in this picture is a black cat that I saw next to the 9th Ave. station when I was on the D train today.

Window Watcher

I saw this fluffy black cat in a window when I was on my way to the gym this weekend.

City Bunnies

I saw two rabbits on leashes in McCarren Park yesterday!!!  (How very Williamsburg...)  Their names were Fugu (the black one) and Henry (the brown one).

Samson

Heidi sent me this cat art that her friend Marissa saw in a bar the other day.

Wildcat

I saw this kitty on my block today, and I thought it looked like a wild cat. So I googled "wild cat" just now and the Wikipedia article for the wildcat came up. As it turns out, there is a wild cat called a wildcat that looks just like the cat I saw today!

Here is a picture of a wildcat:

City Parrots!

I've heard about the parrots and parakeets that live in Brooklyn for a long time, but have never seen them. Well, imagine my surprise when I was walking down Greenwood Ave. in Midwood today when I saw this giant nest. I stopped to look at it and noticed a bright green parrot building it! And then I saw two of his bright green friends on a nearby branch. The next tree also had parrots in it. So if you see a big nest in a tree like this, look for parrots. They might be there.

P.S. Sorry the nest is backlit. Can't see the birdies :-C

The Freshmen Fifteen

I saw these two kitties (one grey, one black) at Brooklyn College today. They are kind of tubby, so I found it appropriate to call them the Freshmen Fifteen because they were on a college campus. (Although, Brooklyn College barely has student housing, so I'm not sure freshmen really gain weight there.)

The picture is super shitty because I was very worried about my past/current/future students seeing me taking pictures of cats.
