When you see something like this, don't you just wish you had some flea powder?
Flea powder would be a great idea if Foxy Fox would let you shake it all over him.
If you could get close enough to shake flea powder on him, he would probably bite you!
Fleas are biting him, and that would inadvertently cause him to bite you?
The weird world of "wild"!!
Tucked safely away in the Sleeping Tub is the cute little girl we call
"Timbit".
She really hasn't found a friend in Barn Cat Mansion yet. Maybe she was too old when we introduced her to the Bumble Butt family. Or, maybe she's just rude and doesn't have a friendly personality. Oh well, when it gets cold enough, she'll find a whole bunch of cool cats slipping into the Sleeping Tub.
September 1st view looking west from the hill above Barn Cat Mansion.
This magnificent scenery never ceases to amaze us. Maybe we'll take a picture at the first of every month, just to see the changing landscape as
summer fades into autumn fades into winter, and so on, and so on.
Peyton and H"C"S ran away from home. H"C"S left because her children are demanding. They should be weaned by now, but refuse to give up. Nursing two BIG kittens is sooooo difficult.
Peyton ran away to keep H"C"S company.
They immediately encountered two problems:
1. Peyton was wearing flip flops, and was forced to turn
back when she hit the thistle patch.
2. H"C"S had to come home with Peyton because she
had the food.
Really, Peyton! Temptations are good, but I don't think you were going to like them!
Socks told us to stop taking so many pictures.
We said "No!"
He snuck into the back seat of the Nissan and parked his body on top of both camera cases.
Too bad, Socks. You forgot to look in the case. We already have the camera! hahaha
Well, the mother cat jumped up in the air and left behind eight kittens, and probably nine, if we could see the bottom of the pile. At least four of them aren't hers.
Do you know who they belong to?
Old Ghost Kitty!! She moved her kittens into the shop, told them to eat "whatever" and weaned them. If they find a free meal, she is DONE with them.
Happens every year!!
Its getting too crowded!! There may be milk on tap, but getting a drink is next to impossible.
The kitten in front is taking a nap while waiting for a spot.
One kitten in the middle came up for air and will continue when he catches his breath.
We can see at least four kittens on this side, but.....
you'll never guess what we found on the other side.
Yes, Orangey Tail!
We know you're out of cat food.
Dragging an empty bag out of the recycling, placing it in the middle of the Mansion floor, and planting your body on top of it really isn't necessary.
Look out town!! Here we come!!
One lonely kitten moved into the luxurious dog bed. The rest chose to go outside and crawl back under the pallet.
We now invite everyone in for breakfast. A special mixture of canned cat food and cream entices even the wildest kitten to belly up to the bar.
Did you notice that blue cat eyes take on a shade of green when placed next to something green? Do green cat eyes take on a shade of blue when placed next to something blue?
Oh don't worry! He's not dead!
Socks waited until the lawn equipment was loaded before he staged a protest. This is the first time he's planted himself in the back of the Nissan. Usually he's on the roof.....or on the hood.....or on the dashboard....but never in the back.
Its not your truck, Socks!
We switched the lawn mower from the trailer to the truck because we only had a few lawns to do and weren't taking the big mower. It looks like we're not taking the truck either, unless we take Socks with us.
