Keeper of the quiet
Warm chair. Cold stare. Every squirrel gets documented.

Nothing urgent happens here. That is why the post requires total concentration.
Every bird is noted.
One paw from perfect.
Untouched until further notice.
Begins whenever paperwork appears.
Permanent, despite polite objections.
At sunrise, Cabin Cat takes the chair beside the window and begins a shift nobody assigned. The fire is checked, the mug is ignored, and each suspicious branch receives a long look. By noon, the room is secure enough for a nap. By dusk, the same chair is occupied, the same tail is lit by the stove, and the report remains unwritten.
Nothing enters without a long look.
