My friends and I got together last night after I finished with a shift of my new job and hung out for a little while, completely impromptu. It was hot yesterday, and my mom wasn't feeling good so we were in the front yard of my house... we had intended to part ways immediately but didn't really get that far... for several hours :P

Once the sun started going down, I noticed the cats across the street were coming out to play. There's a family of about five or so there, two kittens and three adults. We finished babbling about whatever it was we were talking about and wandered over, slowly to avoid scaring them away. Eventually one of the kittens tottered over to me and I got first dibs on petting them :)

The parents were hanging out nearby, undoubtedly watching us as the kittens swatted at rocks and occasionally visited us... was adorable to watch.

Eventually we saw it was gettin' late, so I shooed my friends off home and went back inside - but it was interesting to see that both the parents and kittens were more amiable toward us from that point on. It was a fun evening :)
