I really hope you petted the kitty when you found it.
She's a fairly regular visitor, and she demands regular cuddles. Usually by pretend "falling" over right in front of me, and if I ignore it she'll do it again until I take the hint.
This is excellent news.
She's trained you well. I'd be a little frightened if our little fuzzballs had opposable thumbs as that'd be one step closer to them being able to take over the world entirely.
That angle makes it look like "Attack Of The 50 Foot Kitty"
Hmmm. You don’t have carrots in that garden?
My neighbor’s cat likes to break in and steal them.
Don’t ask, nobody but Sykes knows what he does with them. He gets in through the greenhouse vent. Caught him when I replaced the latch with one he couldn’t just bat open (and left it open;)
I had a cat years ago that would lose her shit over carrots. To the point when putting my groceries away after shopping, I'd catch her trying to chew and claw through the plastic grocery bag to get to them. I can only imagine they made her happy like catnip because she'd play and chew on them if I gave her one.
Interesting; maybe that's it. But then Sykes tidyied up after himself since there was no sign of the carrots after, lol.
She looks mischievous..
Aww, look at the paws and the curious eyes! How cute!
Do you live in a windy area? I want to put up a shade sail but am worried about anchoring it well.
Reasonably so. I had to bolt down my gazebo and attach sandbags to the legs because it'd have blown away, metal frame and all, if I didn't.
Note that a couple of decent sized hooks bolted to the wall can hold a lot compared to trying to weight something down to the ground without firmly attaching it. If you need to attach it to a pole or a post, then you probably want to make sure that side is weighed down quite a bit.
The wind is also the main reason why I have the carabiner hooks so that it's reasonably easy to unhook and fold it up when it gets extra windy without having to try to untie ropes etc..
Thanks for all the tips! I built a post using galvanized pipe secured into about 2 feet of concrete (12" diameter) and then put that in whiskey barrel planters with bricks surrounding it. The other side would be attached to my house. I'm still hesitant to install it so I decided to wait until spring lol
That sounds like it'll be more than solid enough.
Very cute invader
