Came home from a quick errand after dark last night. As I pulled in, I thought I saw Booger. Got out of the car, walked over toward the kitty with my hand out, leaning down, and kitty came over for pets. It wasn't Booger! It was the grey pregnant cat we've seen around, although she's had her litter. She was rubbing her head on my hand and purring, and I skritched her head and ears and neck. Someone out for a walk came by just then, and she scooted.
Went scrounging around up in the woods behind us - found another burrow nearby that it looks like she might have her nest in. Put food out specially for her hoping she'd come back, which after a bit she did, but was unable to follow her home. BTW, I mis-spoke when I wrote before that she was a tiger grey. She's solid, that very soft blue-grey. Her kitties should be about two weeks old, so in another week or two we'll probably see them scampering around.
In all the males around here, finally found another female. We'll keep them around with food, then get her shots and spayed after the kitties are weaned.
