Neighbor Kitty keeps a watchful eye over her neighborhood. Sometimes she watches the birds she likes to eat, other times she guards her yard against Mr. Angry Kitty Street Cat!

Neighbor the regal
Neighbor likes Mommy’s electric blanket very much. Especially on cold days. Sitting on a warm blanket makes Neighbor very peaceable and, well, queenlike.
Kitty condos
Biff likes boxes. Biff REALLY likes boxes with a blanket or towel.
But when Biff leaves his new favorite box, Neighbor will gladly move in! It was like having a kitty time share!
To stop the fighting over the catominium, the humans saved the weekly kitty treat delivery boxes three weeks in a row. Now each cat has their own box with a blanket – they’re like mini-condos. But if there’s anything Biff likes better than his own condo, it’s visiting Neighbor and hanging out on her veranda while she sleeps in her condo.
The guardian of Mommy’s chair
This is Mommy’s new armchair. Sometimes Mommy is unable to sit in it. She might have to go out the big door in the front the cats are not allowed to use, or go into the small room where she closes the door to keep the kitties out. When she isn’t in her chair, Neighbor Kitty takes care of it for her – keeping it warm and making sure that Cliffy doesn’t get it all dirty and gross. Because he’s dirty and gross.
Too darn hot!
Even though Neighbor and Clifford G. do not usually tolerate each other in the same room, the heat wave has made finding a cool spot very important. Today all three cats are hiding in the sun room by Mommy’s new home office: Clifford under Mommy’s new desk, Biff on his new bed by her shelves, and Neighbor on the couch. It’s too hot to fight!
Neighbor, scaredy-cat
Neighbor is usually the bravest cat in the world. But she is an outdoor cat (mostly) who lived on her own before the humans bought the house. When she wasn’t feeling well and had to go to the veterinarian, she was very scared! Neighbor does not like the doctor’s office.
Neighbor, safari leader
Neighbor is a former feral cat who fed herself when the house was vacant before her current family bought it and moved in. She worries about Biff not being able to fend for himself, and so sometimes tries to teach him how to be an outdoor cat. While Biff is very curious about hunting, he’s not curious enough to try eating what Neighbor catches.
Clifford vs. She Who Must Not Be Allowed In
Cliff: “If I stay here, she can’t come in because our humans don’t like us to fight.”
Neighbor: “I’m coming in. They’re not going to leave me outside when it’s cold.”
Human: “Dogs. We should have gone with dogs.”
2019 – new year, old battles
Neighbor Kitty knows that she and Clifford aren’t allowed in the same room because they fight. So New Year’s morning, she refuses to give up her spot on Mommy’s legs on the couch because as long as she is in the living room, Clifford has to stay in Mommy’s bedroom. “Would you like to go outside, Neighbor?” No, thank you.
Neighbor Kitty
This is Neighbor Kitty, playing on the stairs. Neighbor lived in their house before the humans did! They did not know that Neighbor was their cat when they bought the house – every day when they saw her in the back yard, they’d tell their youngest child, “Look, there’s the neighbor kitty!” Then one day the neighbors told them that this cat came with the house – but by then, she was already named Neighbor. Biff thinks she is the most wonderful creature in the whole world. Cliff hates her and wishes she would go outside and never come back.
