Midnight has fed, but he only takes a bit out of each dish, and then sits back on the swing again. 
Jade is always second in the early morning at the moment. Midnight seems to have a soft spot for Jade, almost like her protector.  While Jade was feeding, Midnight got down and fed from the dish next to. Jade. And they were feeding together. Normally, all the stray cats feed independently, no two cats feed at the same moment. It was rather lovely to see.

But if a neighbourhood cat who obviously has a home comes to partake of the cat diner, Midnight is having none of it. He leaps down, says some warning words, and sends the well fed cat packing....chasing after them.

The last few evenings I put the final wet cat food out earlier than usual, but Midnight did not even taste it, but got down off the swing, went to the end of the garden, got out via the arbour. And a few moments later came back into the garden closely followed by Jade. He leads Jade on to the cat food, gets himself back on the swing and watches Jade feed. Jade usually polishes the lot off, then she leaves. Nothing left for Midnight, but he doesn't mind and eats the cat biscuits instead for supper. 

I have never seen this kind of behaviour before.

Creative is my strawberry leaning tower. I had two plants from last year, put them in, and now the little tendrils are finding their way to the lower levels.

Time for a hot drink...

Seize the day, make it yours!
