Any time we are out and about in the yard, it’s not unusual for us to have at least one or two cats following us around.

Since Doom Guy has discovered he likes humans, he tends to get underfoot – literally – fairly regularly.

These days, my morning check around the yard has gotten more extensive, since I’m now looking for more than just downed branches.  This morning, while walking on the far side of the big garden, I had Butterscotch, Rolando Moon and Beep Beep following me.  then Doom Guy caught up and joined his aunty in trying to trip me up! :-D

Rolando Moon tends to keep her distance, though if I stop walking, she might come over for a quick pet.  Usually, she just tags along and meows at me.

With Butterscotch and Rolando Moon around, Beep Beep kept her distance, too.  Usually, she is underfoot and trying to get me to pick her up.  Not today!

What was adorable was the other kittens.  I could see them making their way through the tall grass in the big garden area, following at a distance.  Bob, Rosencrantz and Guildenstern, from what I could see through the grass.  Possibly Jim, too.

The kittens didn’t continue following me was I checked the fence line though the spruce grove.  Just the adult cats came along.

Poor Butterscotch!  She was underfoot for the most part, but when I paused for a bit, Rolando Moon came over Rolando is the cat that is the most aggressive towards the other cats, though it usually is just a bit of hissing and the odd batting of the paw.  This morning, however, she actually went at Butterscotch!  Butterscotch ran off further into the spruces, but Beep Beep was there.  Beep Beep then attacked Butterscotch – only to have Rolando Moon attack Beep Beep, as if she were protecting Butterscotch!

So weird!
