Black Cat and Level Three

We named this feral "Black Cat", very original.  He's been visiting our place for a number of years, possibly four we think.  When he arrived he was a typical alley cat, young, skinny, bony and very hungry. He was an irregular visitor for a couple of years, but when we saw him we gave milk and anything that was about for him to eat, usually scraps.  But over more recent times like the last year or so he calls most days and I have been buying cat food for him.  No longer is he scrawny, now a very well fed cat.  And as time has passed he has tolerated me from a few metres but nothing closer.  For the last month he now arrives in the morning as well as the evening....here he is licking his chops after a tasty breakfast, sitting on the terrace sunbathing.  He is the lucky one choosing this house, I love cats but since shifting to here seven years ago we have not replaced the two we had previously.
First morning of being on Alert Level 3, Doug and I went into our Medical Centre to get our flu jab .....given through our car windows.  See the extras. 
The roads are really busy again, gone now are walking our rural roads in peace.
