Before things started to stay below freezing, I was able to give the bird bath a thorough scrubbing and add a bit of water. Which froze overnight, so I added more in the morning. The cats just can't get enough of that. Here, the top layer has frozen, so there are bubbles moving underneath that … Continue reading Photo(s) of the Day: water cats

Our new toy
First off, many thanks to Elfidd for mentioning using a snow rake in the comments of my last post. How did I not know about such a tool? After doing some searches and discovering not only what it was, but how affordable it was, I left early to pick up my daughter, so I could … Continue reading Our new toy
Cat Routine
What a day it is turning out to be, today! It's supposed to be the last colder day, today (which has since been extended another day). Though it's supposed to warm up to -9C this afternoon, high winds are expected to make things chillier. Which has translated to a day with sunny skies and calm … Continue reading Cat Routine
Morning cats (videos)
The outside cats have been quite entertaining, the last couple of days. Before heading out to do my rounds yesterday morning, I saw Beep Beep going up one of the trees outside my window - soon followed by Slick. I figured they were heading for the roof again. When I got to the feeding station, … Continue reading Morning cats (videos)
They’re BaaaAAAaack!
We've had ourselves an afternoon of kittens and cows! 😀 My daughter and I had to head into town this afternoon, but as we left the house, we got distracted by a Doom Guy. Who is starting to get used to this whole "being held" thing, and enjoying head scritches. Oh, was he purring up … Continue reading They’re BaaaAAAaack!
Kitten Heaven!
The kittens have been tearing around all over the place! Last night, I spent some time outside with them, tossing out cat treats in various directions. The tuxedo was once again the only kitten that would come near me, and even allowed me to pet him. This afternoon, while heading out to go pick up … Continue reading Kitten Heaven!
More Kittens, and hot stuff!
Butterscotch's kittens came out to play again this morning.  Which, unfortunately, happened to also be at prime reflections-on-the-window time, so getting any decent photos as all was a challenge! But, I did get a few. 😀 No sign of any cats at all right now, in the early evening. I suspect they have all found … Continue reading More Kittens, and hot stuff!
Strange Fruits!
Looking out the master bedroom window this morning, we discovered a strange fruit in the trees! It is a Rolando Moon fruit! Our own cats were very, very interested in this strange fruit, and desperately wanted to jump up to the window. This is the one window that did not get replaced last summer. Though … Continue reading Strange Fruits!
Morning Mystery!
As expected, as the snow melted, I found the cats' missing food bowl. ... Now I'm wondering, how on earth did it get there? It's not like it got shoveled up there by accident. It's under the newest snowfall, and a bowl full of frozen water woud have fallen right off the size of the … Continue reading Morning Mystery!
