Say hello to Edgar. He lives down the street but roams the near neighborhood and occasionally comes by to visit us. He's a pretty sociable cat.
However, Hilbert isn't. Neither is Charlie. As you can see in the bottom picture, with his arched back and bushy tail, Hilbert is none too pleased with Edgar's visit. Oddly, Edgar himself didn't react at all. He just sat there calmly while Hilbert and Charlie (outside the frame) hissed at him.
Because it’s what cats do…

Edgar has been to Jhoon Rhee…
Edgar's too old to be bothered with any performative hostility. He's just having a look around.
I have a cat that spends a lot of his time outside. (I don't like letting my cats out, but Finnick started ripping out screens and jumping out of second story windows, so he won.) There are several cats that wander the neighborhood and visit the yard. One night I heard the sound of a cat fight and rushed out to bail him out of trouble. I found Finnick sitting on the stoop, watching two other cats fighting n my front lawn. I scooped him up to bring him inside. Once in my arms, he started hissing at the others.
What a tough guy.
