When did the @*!#%%!!! Cats take over?????

In the olden days, about 30 years ago, the cats ruled Boca Grande. They were part of the landscape at restaurants and shops. That all changed about 10 years later. (The word was that it was due to lawsuits)

 BUT everything old is new again…This kitty, Sissy (though he's a boy) has an ultra-sweet setup here at Sisters Restaurant. He has been supplied with his own chair or two, a selection of toys and an always-full bowl of food.  Below, he's got his eye on poor old Fred, who is just praying and hoping for just the tiniest morsel of dropped food.

 Fred thinks the whole situation stinks. Especially since he is afraid of cats. 

 Sissy decided to taunt Fred from another vantage point

 Really. What is the world coming to???

Back to the Boca LIfe

The Innlet at the Outlet

We only discovered this little gem a few years ago when they added the outdoor patio. Things are still mighty quiet here- we were the only patrons 

 Well, other than the Heron

 who evidently feels right at home here

 This must be a shortcut

 Don't know where he planned on going 

 Just circled around us and the other other patron

 Hey. Take a picture. It will last longer.

 And Back to the original spot. 

They tell me that the heron and this cat are old pals. Not so much the other restaurant/dock cats.

 Just noticed this place on the way home. It was on Damifiwill Street.

I wonder where I can get one of those signs?
