This Foreign Invader—Who Is He?

Some cats are fascinated by novel objects in their homes and spaces, whereas other cats find them confusing. The owner of this cat seemed to have been accustomed to living alone since she was unmarried for an extended period of time. But when he found a girlfriend, she left a bobby pin behind in the home. The cat, to put it mildly, was not impressed.
