Swamp Guard

I met this creature in a back water park pavilion. After I

took this photo, this cat jumped to attack me. Fortunately

he was attached to a post with a bejeweled collar and

a leash !!! His owner, who was sitting there eating, had warned

me. He said this creature has always been a “Guard” Cat.

The owner and his wife were just traveling through the South

with their Guard Cat and a sweet puppy dog. The owner pointed

towards a white Chevy Van pulling up. It was tinted green

from swamp algae which covers everything eventually.

It was his wife with their other dog. They were getting ready to

spend the night there. Then I realized that this was their

home and their life. Spending the night on the Tolomato

River in Florida. They were happy with it. So was I.

Yes, they were living in van, down by the river.
