Today is the ninth annual Flying Pig Marathon, and it goes a mere three blocks from my house. This year, my brother-in-law finished his first marathon. Given that, my wife, daughter, Eddy and I went down to that corner to cheer him on. Eddy attracted a lot of attention--there were plenty of dogs on the sidelines, but he was the only feline

"That Cat is on a Leash!!!"

We had been tracking him via the web for most of the morning, so we only had to wait 5-10 minutes for him to run by, stop to say "hi," then continue on. In the second picture, he is circled in red:

It was a great morning for a great event!

It's cool that you got Eddy to wear the leash. I've never heard of a cat that would allow itself to be leashed and walked. My mom tried to leash her cat once and the thing freaked out. To be honest, though, that cat was a little off.

You don't so much walk the cat as suggest which way to go. When I actually needed him in a particular spot on a particular timeline, I had to pick him up (towards the end, much to his dismay). However, he was quite happy to be out smelling grass and flowers, and letting kids pet him.
