Hazel


The second smallest cat of Apifera, the ever lovely but ever shy, Hazel Nut, aka Hazel. And what better way to spend a day, I ask, but sitting in a compost pile?

Hazel was from the first feral litter when we moved in. She has calico hints, reminding us of her mother, Mama Kitty. Ever shy, she is going on 5 now, and has taken a real shining to Samuelle Noel. She allows me to pet her, and is very sweet. But if you come to Apifera, it is doubtful you will see her. She prefers her mates, and me.
