There is a tree with a deep crevice in our back woods. The neighbor cats like to sit in the crook above the hole and watch, so I’m pretty sure something has made a home in there. I’m just not sure what.

We have some rust issues with the back fence that need to be fixed. However, after we saw a small bird fly into the hole, and Sophie the cat’s interest in the hole, we think a bird has a nest in the bottom. Fixing can wait until after nesting season.
I put batteries back in the trail cam, and left it out where we trap cats to see who might be left to take in to be fixed. The cats aren’t very cooperative with showing their ears to the camera. Mostly I see sides and tails!



It has been a rough few weeks with the weather being uncooperative, then my youngest was sick with Flu A for two weeks (yes, she had a flu shot, but back in September). I’m hoping we can get back to fixing the cat colony soon. There should only be a handful left (famous last words, ya know).
I took the cover off the puzzle, and within two minutes the table sprouted a cat. I feel that she is looking at me thinking “this is my rightful spot, I dare you to move me”.

My suburban princess cat likes to come into the backyard with us. She gets quite sassy about it, but has to be watched carefully that she stays in the fenced part. She did not grow up here, and is no match for the home-grown true country cats in the neighborhood, let alone the raccoons or coyotes or bobcats. Well, I wasn’t watching carefully and she slipped through a gap in the fence.
