Love Struck

It seems Remington has a girlfriend...

They grow up so fast, doesn't they?!

I recorded this with the intention of capturing him "talking" to her.  When she's out there he climbs to the window and sits there all morning (or as long as she's out there).  He makes these chirping, rooing, chatter noises at her...so stinkin' cute!  You can hear him at the very start but that's all I got, stupid video takes a moment to actually start recording.  Remi, also, always stops when I go over to the window.  So frustrating!!  LOL. 

It took me a few days to realize he was actually in the window with the purpose of seeing HER.  I thought he'd just lost his mind or something.  Maybe pining away with grandeur of playing out in the grassy area in front of the window.  He's far more well behaved on the days he sits in the window staring at her.  I almost wish I could invite her in for a play date, maybe then he'd be a good boy and not torture Parker & Cyrus so much. 

Unfortunately, I have no idea who she is or who her parents are.  I do believe she's a stray but she never lets me get close enough for a good enough look to see if she's all mangy like the other strays or if she's just an elusive house cat.  Since she's outside I'm guessing she's feral.  We have a large group of feral strays in our complex, non of which will let me get remotely friendly with them. 

I find it funny that Remi sits and calls to her.  Parker has always attacked the windows when she's seen another cat outside and growls & hisses at them the whole time.  Cyrus just stairs, never making a move either way.  If they get too close to the window he freaks out and runs away to hide or he freaks & runs away when Parker attacks the window (or it'll eventually be him she attacks).  There's been a few times I was afraid she was going to break the arcadia door she hit it so hard. 

Remington has always been a friendly cat though.  He walked right up to both Parker & Cyrus when we first brought him home like they'd known each other forever.  They didn't appreciate it but I thought it was cute.  I wonder what he would do if he actually encountered another cat face to face now that he is older. 

Um...can I just say that my indoor cat has found a love interest and yet I can't even find someone to have a mild flirtation with.  It's a sad state of affairs my friends.  A sad state.
