This is our stray cat Magoo, as in Mr. Magoo. Magoo came to us almost 4 years ago in November during a bitter cold streak we were experiencing here in South Texas. It was in the single digits with sleet coming down and I went out on the front porch to have a smoke (that was when I was still smoking, which I don't do anymore) and there was this kitty crying. She was so cold and hungry that she didn't even run away from me.
I've never had a cat as a pet so all I had was dog food and gave her some, which she hungrily gobbled up. I went in and got some old towels and blankets to make her a bed with a plastic box for protection from the elements and she stayed. She lives outside, and has been known to stay away for days at a time but she always comes back cause she loves us (and we love her).
What she doesn't like is having her picture taken but these are two shots I got yesterday with my nifty new camera.

I'd have to say that Magoo is very cute even if she doesn't like to have her picture taken!
She is lovely, I love the eyes. cats are so independant and they can shoot us some looks!!
She's very pretty. She's not severely myopic, is she?
What a kind thing for you to do. I found a tiny kitty on my doorstep once in the middle of a severe thunderstorm with rain lashing down. I put notices up but no-one claimed her. She lived with us for fourteen years and was the sweetest, gentlest cat I have ever known:0)

Very pretty kitty. Reminds me of the two kitties that we sort of adopted at our first apartment. Ashley (2 yrs old at the time) named them and we fed them every morning until we moved.
What a cutie! She looks very soft and clean for an outdoor kitty! She must be an adventurous one to stay away for days and come back. :-D
Aww, gorgeous cat, and wonderful she came across someone who'd care for her.. :)
Magoo thanks each and every one of you for your kind and loving comments (me too).
wow debbie, good pictures, maybe you have found your calling.
What a honey bunny! She is a very cute kitty, great you could catch these pictures of her! :-)
yay for Magoo having a loving home, and yay for you for providing that home!
She has such lovely eyes!
luv,
Mo
Aw, super sweet! Congrats on the new camera, too. Sounds like it will be much fun.
Very nice pictures. Great shot of Mr. Magoo too! I see we both like taking pictures and like dogs and cats.
