So, I just moved to a new place. The first time in a house.
Today, a furry tabby cat is sitting on the front porch. Gannicus and Spartacus are curious through the window but don't seem frightened or threatened by this cat. . . . I think maybe I saw this cat walking in the neighborhood a few days ago. Perhaps it's a neighbors cat? (but I haven't met any neighbors yet, very quiet street)
Anyway, this cat is like "sleeping", it's not very interested in my cats, but just sitting there,... looking away, closing it's eyes.
So, I decided to see what would happen if I went out onto the front porch. The cat stayed where it was but then started meowing... like a low, I would stay distressed meow you hear at the vet sometimes.. not a growl, but more of one that would make me think one of my guys was upset (like wants out of a room or a door to open, type meow).
Anyway, I went back inside because I didn't want to upset the cat. A few minutes after that he/she went away.
Thoughts? It's my first time with neighborhood cats while having my own. Why do you think it meowed like that? It seemed very content and fine, looking and seeing my cats at the window but didn't really want me outside near it.
