A surly unaltered stray tomcat we named McGruff stops by from time to time in order to terrify our cats. I’ve petted him and he purrs, but toms are skittish and he’ll bite or scratch you if he senses anything he doesn’t trust. Erica is afraid to touch him.

He drops around from time to time and during the blizzard Erica gave him some kibble.

This is the view that Erica sees from her desk. McGruff looks a little miffed at something.
