I moved the trail camera, and apparently zeroed in on the neighborhood cat dust bath. I had 200 pictures of cats laying in the dirt. I will spare you the whole collection, and just share the cutest.

Sophie the indoor/outdoor cat, who is leaning more toward indoor everyday, brought me a present. I remembered to take a picture before I investigated, which is the only reason I am posting about it. The lizard was playing dead for the cat, and when I reached for it, it took off like a shot and disappeared. I think this lizard has done this before. With any luck, the lizard will go off and make more cat and human foiling baby lizards.

This is Sophie’s meadow. She likes to hang out there and seems to be the queen of this space since I rarely see other female cats there. Or maybe she is more confident out in the open because she has the best camouflage in the neighborhood. I just had to take her picture as she stood in the cut daisies (yellow), hedge parsley (white), and Indian blankets (red and orange).

Because it has been such a long month, here is a cute cat sitting in a pot to end your April with a smile. No, I didn’t try to plant anything in this pot. I put it back out for the cat when she rejected the woven basket and then the woven basket developed mold. Ok, kitty, you can have the plant pot.

Little stinker. I put up the sunscreens and Sophie thought she can wiggle into the coop like she did last year (she can walk on the fabric, but not the wire). She forgot that I used 2x4s to block her entrance. So she’ll settle for looking over the edge like a gargoyle.
