One Year with Cats and Trails and Garden Tales

Has it really been a year since I started this blog with just a few cat stories in mind, along with a lot of fear and trepidation?  Well, yes it has! And a wonderful journey it has been!  I am honestly pleased (and somewhat surprised) to have made it this far and… Continue Reading “One Year with Cats and Trails and Garden Tales”

Still the Handsome Tiger

This is Tiger and I gotta tell you it’s not easy being the oldest cat in the family.  They let that boy run wild and do things I would never have gotten away with.  Times change, I guess. Flying around the house.  Howling at… Continue Reading “Still the Handsome Tiger”

Rainy Days and Mondays

Another cold and rainy day in the Pacific Northwest and a Monday besides.  Though all things are green in the garden, work will have to wait.  We have been promised a day of sunshine this week and are hoping the promise is not vain. Tucked… Continue Reading “Rainy Days and Mondays”

A Harrowing Night in the Shed

This is Tiger and do I have a harrowing tale for you!  It all started out innocently enough yesterday. Benji and I were sporting about in the garden, helping Bob and Sue with various tasks, digging, chasing, and advising on work to be done.  Bob… Continue Reading “A Harrowing Night in the Shed”

Kittie Photo Shoot in the Garden

“Okay boys,” I said.  “Spring is here and it’s a sunny day. I’d like to get a few shots of you two in the garden, okay?” “Fine by me,” says Tiger. “How about this?” “Perfect,” I say. “Alright with me’” says Benji.  “How’s this?”… Continue Reading “Kittie Photo Shoot in the Garden”

Gray skies and post vacation doldrums..

Is it the jet lag, time change or bad weather?  Usually, I’m ready for home after vacation, this time not so much.  I had gotten used to slow mornings, lazy days, and beach walks.  Sunshine, palm trees, and playing in ocean waves. Goodbye Maui… Continue Reading “Gray skies and post vacation doldrums..”

The mouse had no chance

This is Benji and let me just say it up front, right out loud: I am not a vegetarian.  No, not from my youth.  Neither were my ancestors.  Nor my big brother Tiger.  We are all hunters. If this bothers you then read no… Continue Reading “The mouse had no chance”
