Looks she was smart enough to find YOUR neighborhood.  I note that, like our 
late black long-hair, she will be difficult to photograph.

I think cats have a since of opportunity.  We had a neighborhood wanderer 
that I have pictured before. He found a place to sleep under the canvas on a 
neighbor's boat.  On the afternoon after the neighbor disposed of the ashes 
of their dog of many years, while he was sadly reminiscing about the dog, 
the cat eased up behind him and nudged him.  They instantly bonded, 
especially with the wife, and another cat found a lucky home.
