When Wolfgang goes out of town, lucky him, he has a willing person to check on and feed his cat, Maisey. That person would be me.
Maisey is not the most social of cats, but she's figured out that I'm the food person, so I think she likes me. I wish we could just have her stay at our house, but clearly, all hell would break loose if she did. Our cat is not fit to share with other cats - it's how he got booted from his first home and ended up with us.
Bottom line, I go to Wolfgang's every day if he's out of town, which has been the case recently.
It's a pleasant 10-mile bicycle round trip from my house to Maisey's. If I go there after work, it's more like 12 miles, mostly flat. Wolfgang lives in a modern apartment complex downtown. When I go there, I feel like one of those bike messengers, in the elevator with my bicycle, on a mission.
The building has private entrances along interior hallways. Several of them have welcome mats. This one intrigued me back around Halloween.

How fun, right?
Except... I was there again this week. The Ouija board "welcome" is still there. Apparently, it's not a Halloween decoration, but a permanent fixture. Heh, those jokesters... I think
Not far from that is this set up
I have no idea the signifigance, if any, of the white wreath. But the mat reminds me of the illuminati symbol or Eye of Providence, which again, I really don't know its message.
I guess the inhabitants just want to keep their floors clean.
In other news, the college students (and teachers and tutors, for that matter) are dragging butts to make it to fall break. After that, there's one more week and then finals. Meanwhile, I'm planning my schedule for spring semester while students are hoping to not have to retake any classes. This isn't high school. Actual failure is now an option.

Those mats are very cool, The eye is my choice- the spirit board is kind of scary...I summoned a spirit once...not the best idea I ever had.
Maisey lives in a supernatural world! (Maybe all cats do?)
Linda Sue, I've sampled the Ouija. Never again!
Fresca, I'd like to think so!
Okay, you know I'd like either of those Welcome Mats. *LOL* Maisy sounds like our Granddaughter's Cat, Eli, who only likes me becoz I am also the Food Human of his Staff.
Bohemian, "the Food Human of his Staff" - HA, I can relate!
There's definitely something about eyes. I have one in the garden.
It's great that you're a reliable cat sitter.
I think a lot of people are dragging waiting to get to time off for Thanksgiving.
My students are in the throes of their final push to the end too. I empathize; I'm ready for a break myself.
