i think the fog represents the problems one can have sometimes in their life. Perhaps the problem(s) can creep up you silently like a cat, linger in your life and on your mind and then move on when it feels like it. you can't control it, just like the weather.

I believe that this poem is referring to the difficult situations that we as humans cannot see through, like we cannot see through 'fog'. These situations, sometimes sneak up on us like 'little cat feet'. The situation hangs over our heads, 'it sits looking'. But, eventually, 'moves on'.
