Offsetting the two meeping month-olds and During's impending next litter any time now, one of the September littermates, Equinox, died of unknown but not apparently traumatic causes last night (I found her under the bushes this morning when she didn't respond to the sound of breakfast being poured). She will join Tuxedo and Drake by the WWII headstone in the corner of my yard.
While I would be astonished if all the cats that have passed through my yard were still around, there's been a fairly low known mortality rate - two car strikes and four from natural causes (illness or presumed predation) in nearly nine years, a period in which there have been more than thirty individuals.
Bear and Panda remain active and mouthy and extremely keen for my attention; I hope this continues, though, goddamn, are they loud in the confines of my garage.
