With eyes like night-vision goggles, a Ringtail Cat displays the striped yardage that gives her a name. A ruff of paper-thin cactus fiber, grama grass, and chuparosa is tied with creosote flowers, while its seeds adorn her wrist. Fairy duster blooms nestled in her ears enhance the aura of sweetness. “I’m not really a cat, or a coon,” she says, “but I do share traits with each. Sometimes I am called ‘tlacomixtle’…well, what’s in a name?”
