Flowers

The buddleia is going crazy right now. I was quite pleased to have my very first bouquet of fresh cut flowers from my garden.



For Christmas, my husband's parents had given our kitties these cute little pouches of catnip with mice painted on the side. Both cats loved them, and I'd occasionally find them quite chewed and drooled on.

But this was the scene last night, minus Marms, who just wanted her dinner.



See the look of disappointment on her face? "Aww someone destroyed my toy!"

I'm pretty sure our cats didn't do it, however we know for a fact that at least two neighbor cats are helping themselves to the dry food. Makes me wonder if raccoons are affected by catnip...

Time to look seriously into that RFID cat door.

PS- that neon green has an explanation. We got that cute white "dead mouse" pillow at Ikea, but every time the cats step on it, it slid out from under their paws. Voila a veggie drawer liner to be a non-skid surface!

That's an interesting way of advertising...

Our cats thoroughly enjoy their freedom with a cat door, but unfortunately so do the raccoons and neighbor cats. Hence my comment about RFID.
