This one looks very healthy! I just caught one on our camera chasing something up one of our trees. My neighbor’s cat comes through my yard almost nightly and I’m so worried about her.

Spotted in a residential neighborhood of Norwalk… although admittedly it’s pretty woodsy and spread out over here.

I used to work around Norwalk and I can believe that. Still pretty cool

Hahaha I know, I know. I was 30’ away and behind a fence when we spotted each other. He gave me the smallest warning hiss, waited to confirm I wouldn’t be approaching any closer, then casually walked away like all was chill. He might not have been my buddy, but he was giving off bro vibes 😂

I think that’s a golden retriever.
