A walk on the tame side!

Day 2 of January, 2020. If I type it enough, perhaps I will remember!

These go back to last week, Dec. 24th. It was a warmish day, the greens stood out from the browns. There has been so much going on!



This is our 'nanny tree'. The birch grew up in the stump, but the stump is deteriorating.



We're having a bit of a problem with the kittens. I think they are older than previously thought. We're having to separate them. He is constantly grabbing her neck and trying to mount her. Their birthday is June 30th. They aren't scheduled for surgery until Feb. 12th (they are a busy vet service!).

Howling, screaming, jumping on her, bringing Annabelle to the rescue. I keep throwing one of them into the Muskoka Room, with the outer cat door locked. Oh my.

Sounds like it might be a long month with those kittens.
All the best for a new decade.

Haha!!! I have to laugh, as this morning we woke to a stray? cat at our window.Another boy, maybe part siamese, definitely someone's cat, but he has been wandering up and down the street for a few weeks. The joys of boing a cat lover, it brings all sorts of trials and delights. Hope you are keeping warm, we have drizzle and a cold wind.

Lots of good light and shadows in your bush.

She is showing signs of being fertile, John. It's a bit weird.
