An happy Friday to you all! The Sun is shining on the sky, it's a warm day of Springtime and the weekend is just around the corner, what's better? Later in the afternoon I'll go to the opening of an art exhibition in the center of my city, but waiting that moment I'm working with my colors and brushes in front of the open window. Sitting there I can see my furry friends playing (and sleeping) around in my backyard with their friend Nerone (an old black cat of my neighbor that loves to spend his time here 😻 ). At first, Nanny cleaned her body. She is the mom of the young Bimba (around 1 years old) and she is a quiet cat who loves to sleep more than to hunt insects, while Bimba is full of energy and always ready to hunt everything is flying close to her. ![DSCN9824.JPG](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/silviabeneforti/EoCj5rV7kAH84rrpQdT4iLV7zNfKTo4gfUNk1W5wmVYJUSSMKXdAVwjTJENbtbMuphf.JPG) ![DSCN9825.JPG](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/silviabeneforti/EonjyMLwLJKZ8RseuoRsrHBvaeJzwuoYk1ejyvT4XJHAMXFK3KM4DNiXSrZvaZNTAXA.JPG) Nerone (I call hime Nerone that in italian language means "big black" because the color of the body, but I don't know his real name) uses to come here almost every day from his home not so far from mine. He is the only cat my furry friend appreciate enough to sleep close each other. In the first pic you can see Nerone while he was sleeping in the garden close to mine and, in the second one, while he was sleeping close to my Nanny: ![DSCN9822.JPG](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/silviabeneforti/EogNprBytmNKe5afJWFXECjXC2tf1T47Ea45osTSXskRbXYmTGJxQyDyJXvQNNmCskN.JPG) ![DSCN9831.JPG](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/silviabeneforti/EoK5uhvmLDBDjGpLQkPT4D8iRjwnLnbpEtEyyxM6rjmPajvLuoXGmxp1Lwg28RZEJ7i.JPG) Later, Nanny woke up and I noticed she seemed very interesting on something she was watching in another garden close to mine: ![DSCN9847.JPG](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/silviabeneforti/EoeEzcRPgvUiJoQuEjy2Z7C2nNWoi3JYtN2zgH3BpPQiEJJycHoyfHtWS2DHhU7iF8o.JPG) I was curious and so I tried to understand why Nanny seemed to be not so happy and I understood! There was Tigro, a beautiful cat around 8 years old who came here from time to time, but that she doesn't love so much: ![DSCN9849.JPG](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/silviabeneforti/EoK5qfcLA1RiygcMn86znjX2U48J7Zqabs5JaXMSjb6LdUeiZ7aTL47fX9Qgptid8bv.JPG) ![DSCN9845.JPG](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/silviabeneforti/EogPihcZKLJw25ASHTe1ksu2aULRVBNWjNVxYfizNhGuAixUnjxVdYU9rASg7mrq8QY.JPG) I don't know why Nanny loves Nerone and no Tigro, but at the end I think cats are not so different by humans, they love some of their similar ones and sometimes no. 😁 See ya soon and stay safe, Silvia
