Musings on cats, travel, gardens and life
A Good Day in the January Garden
One day earlier this month, when the sun was shining and temperatures were approaching sixty degrees, I went outside and found Benji hard at work.
“Whatcha doing there Benji?”
“Getting ready for planting,” he replied. “Looks like spring is here.”
“Thanks Benji,” I said, “But you’ve been fooled by the weather. Spring’s a long way out yet. But I could really use your help over here. We’ve got a mole problem again.”
“Okay Sue! I’m on it,” he replied.
And he was.

Cats and Trails and Garden Tales 
He is so cute! Makes me want a cat, my dog is a bit intimidated by them though. LOL
Yes, we love our Benji! Mr. Personality! I’m a confirmed cat person, but I wouldn’t mind having a dog someday, especially for walking. Only they’re more work, and I don’t think Tiger and Benji would approve! 🙂
Bear is definitely my running buddy but gets a bit wild in the house when it’s too cold to go outside for long.
If I get a cat one day I’ll definitely get a rescue.
Yes! Both are kitties were rescue cats!
He’s definitely hunting, but I suspect it was something smaller than a mole. 🙂
Best wishes, Pete.
Yeah, probably a smaller tunnel dweller like a vole. After this he concentrated on even smaller insects in the grass which made for a nice snack!
I love a cat that can contribute around the house and garden!
Yes indeed! Benji does his share!
So adorable!
Thank you! Benji was very active that day!!
I am especially impressed that you caught that leap.
Benji put on a good show that day and I was happy to be there with my camera. 😊
I admire your photo skills.
Thanks so much. I’m learning. 🙂
It’s inspiring.
Did he catch the mole? That’s too adorable tho probably not for the mole haha
He didn’t catch it in my presence which is a good thing I think! 🙂
😹
Benji, you are adorable. My cat Buddy wouldn’t like you but I think you are gorgeous.
