When I took a good look at today’s batch of Friday Felines, I realized Mr. Romeo is missing.

Well, not missing, really. Just missing from these photos. He’s otherwise very much in evidence.

I’m putting Mr. Silverman in the lead role. Here he is putting on his “getting older and endearing” act. For a cat that started out as a wild “visitor” who roamed the neighborhood and showed up only for meals, he’s pretty amazing. He’s now a homebody who enjoys standing on the counter so that it’s easier for a person to come over and kiss his head. That doesn’t sound remarkable, but with Silverman’s history, it is.

Anyway, if you haven’t already zipped past to avoid the cats, please click on Silverman’s photo to see the rest of the Feline Friday crowd.
