Sida

Sida is one of around 20 cats who came from a feral colony near Princess Street in Steveston. Others include Prince, Cha Cha, and Maddie (but, ironically, not Princess).

Sida usually hangs out in the tea room and is not interested in making friends with humans. Leslie says she'll occasionally come into the doublewide if she wants to be given a treat, but even then she doesn't really want to be touched. Most of the time she'll just hiss if approached.

I got a chance to photograph her today because she's in a cage after going to the vet to have a couple of teeth extracted. She let me take a photo or two of her behind her drape. And then she me dismissed me with a hiss.
