Open Sesame

If he concentrates hard enough the lid may open and the treasure -  the cat mint -  may be revealed.

More Spring

Saxifrage

Wallflowers

Aquilegia

William the Gardener

"This one tastes good.  It can stay."

Must keep his feet clean.

Spring is sort of on its way.

Marsh marigolds

Twilight months

How better to spend your last weeks than with the one you love?

Let's talk about me!

" I'm more interesting than Olly!"

"My tail's longer than that!"

"Focus on ME!"

All in a day's work, by Oliver.

Chinning

Digging

 Thinking about where to go next.

Smells...glorious smells....

"Ah ...carrots?  Shall we share?"

"Will you stop following me?  GO AWAY!"

Oliver

Oliver is enjoying what time he has left as he has a tumour which, at some point in the future, will need hard decisions to be made.  But today he is happy and well.

 Not just happy and well -  also fed up of posing.  "Get me down off here!"

What part of 'GET ME DOWN' are you not understanding?

 

"Oops... fancy seeing you here..."

                                             "I am being ever so careful where I put my paws..."

Twilight

It's amazing what a bit of sun does...

With the sun on your back...

Growing well.

What a set of toesies!

Yes. They are MINE!

Benjamin Bunny has an experience.

"It was huge and it was after ME!"

"Just wanted to play" says the kitten from next door.

A visitor

                                       Cookie is staying while her parents are on holiday.

Getting over a bad night.

"I got locked in the shed overnight" says Archie (who needed sympathy. He has been overcome by tiredness due to the stress).

That's why it's called CAT MINT.

Self service

"Hey Tabs! Did you say it was in here?"  

Penny and Chester

Penny (the Bad)

Chester puts the finishing touches to his girl.

Ever Alert.

Me and My Gal (aka Theo and Sophie)

Just look at the state of those feet.

That's enough! Move along now...Nothing more to see.

It's been a hard day!

A good year for the cowslips.

Go Away! Leave me ALONE.

Tabs has been traumatised by his annual vet visit with jabs and pills. He has refused to let anyone go near him for two days.

But today he is just starting to get back into normal routines -  but still wary.

Mrs McGregor's Garden

This was the bunnies' play area -  but now we have a change of use.  We hope that if they could not get out they now cannot get back in. The hard work in the early part of the year seems to be paying off.

No slugs here...yet.

Radishes are good for us and the tops good for the bunnies.

Keep growing -  right to the top.

As yet, no blackfly.

The herbs.

 

Spring arrived!

A mass of flowers...but where are the bees?

This year the climbers will climb, not go along the ground...

Maytime is Bluebell time.

Grown from seed this last year.
