What did you do in the garden today?

I do not feed wild birds here as it was a feeding station for our outside cats

Has this chat slowed? I’ve been gone awhile...had some big life changes at the time not really wanted but it was for the best I heartbreakingly had to give up my chickens and ducks I was able to keep my dog and cockatiel Girl dog/ Baby and Andy so that was definitely a plus lol I’d live in my truck before I gave them up ...and I stayed away from here was just a bit too sad...but I’m in a better place once again stable and springs right around the corner ...in the market for another incubator wasn’t able to take one I had before..or I may just purchase some chicks idk yet but I’ll miss incubating ...probably not gonna do ducks this year have to get a chicken coop and run built first...don’t have a huge country acres 18+ in the city now on a somewhat small lot but still on the river so another plus..as I like to kayak ,camp and all that..so everything has to be smaller scale this time...plus I’ll need a brand new garden first year gardens ugg..thinking maybe a chicken tractor so I can move it around which could also benefit my garden at end of season..anyways not sure if any of ya remember me but I’d pop in here time to time as well as a few other of the chat threads...but I’m back and just wanted to say hello!!

Welcome back. Yes, things are slow right now. I live in a snow dome so only planning and prepping for planting. We are fortunate to have a few posters who live in warmer places and send lovely photos of their gardens.

I finished cleaning out the chicken coop and dumping the rest of the shavings in the garden. My garden is around 192 square feet. I'm wanting to make it larger, but didn't do anything about it last year.
I took our sick cat to the vet. She ( the cat) is only around 4 or 4 and a half years old but she lost half her body weight in 2 weeks! She went from being 11+ pounds down to 6.5 pounds. They did blood work, and x-rays as well as a physical check over her. They think she may have cat hepatitis. They are giving her antibiotics, and another pill. They also gave her a broad spectrum wormer, just in case. I take her back on the 18th to see if she has put any weight on or not. If not, I will probably have her put down. I just spent almost $500 and can't afford to spend more than that on a cat. So, hopefully she will do better in the coming week. Her brother is doing just fine.

I had a garden a couple years ago that was about 1500 square feet. Lots of varieties of vegetables. A good amount of potatoes and also lots of blue berries and raspberries. Sometimes I miss it others not so much. Having well water at the time was nice for watering it.
