Maly's new friend - Barney III

This lovely wee cat was in my back garden again today. I saw him for the first time yesterday and he reminded me so much of my friend's cat Barney. I did wonder if this was the cat who had been battling with Maly a couple of weeks ago but Maly appeared and the two of them acted like old friends. I have no idea where he has suddenly appeared from, I hope he lives locally and is not a stray. He was happy for me to open the kitchen window to take photos but disappeared when I unlocked the back door.
