A new visitor to my garden

I just nipped outside to see if Bola was about and spotted Fudge on a neighbours shed roof stalking what I assumed was Dexter. It wasn't, it was a new black cat to me who jumped down and ran up as soon as he saw me. By the amount of grey hairs he's getting on a bit.

I say new to me, I'm wondering if it's the same cat who used to call regularly many moons ago but just stopped coming. If it's not the same cat he's certainly used to people as he's really friendly.

'EDIT'

Thinking about it, it's not the same cat as their face shapes are very different, the other one has a really round, fat face, even tho' he was a long way from being overweight.

I think he must be used to cat flaps as he's tried mine a couple of times, I had to lock it as Buddy was going frantic trying to get at him from the kitchen

Anyhow, here he is

In case anybody is wondering, the food on the plate was left by Buddy after he spotted this cat thro' the flap and suddenly lost his appetite. The stranger barely nibbled at it before jumping onto the fence in the second pic.

Another candidate for your visitors club! Another character for us to discover and chew over news about.

Hi Joanne,

I doubt it, he was just too friendly to not have a home somewhere nearby, hopefully he was just passing thro' my garden on his way back there. It doesn't really show in the pic, but the amount of grey hairs suggests he's an elderly cat, tho' he's still sprightly enough.

The way Fudge, then Buddy reacted at seeing him (thank God Max wasn't around) means I hope I won't be seeing much more/if any of him tbh.
