For Caturday, Enzo wants to know when we are putting the decorations on the tree so he can play with them.....

Caturday!
A neighbour cat in the chickens dust bath.

This dust basth area is underneath an old window. A dry spot in the run filled up with sand and a little DE every now and then.

This is Cobweb.
She is broody.

She has been sitting on 4 eggs for nearly 3 weeks.​

This is Alpia.
Now Cobweb has done all the work & the eggs are getting close to hatching she's decided the eggs are hers. Cobweb is a junior hen so I keep finding Alpia on her eggs.
I swear my girls are batty as!​

CATURDAY.
Last week Kirby was very, very sick. He stopped eating & drinking. He was hiding away. He didn't come to sleep beside me or follow me to the bathroom.
I thought he was dying.
As he's 18, going on 19, [88~92 in cat years] that was not an unreasonable thought.
I was devastated. He is one of the few things from my old life that I managed to keep & he has always been inordinately affectionate, more so as he's aged.
Thankfully he came good but with our temps hovering round the 40's all the cats are congregating in the only air conditioned room. Kirby does have one or two health issues which can't be addressed as he has a dicky heart.
I suspect my boarder gave him a little too many treats as he's very fond of Kirby [the only cat who will speak to him] & kirby can be very beguiling when he likes.​
