She has super powers
Conservatory border topped up with compost
Cat: Oh look, the weather is warmer today. She has gone out to top up the conservatory border near the house. Look at all that lovely loose compost. I know what I could do with that!
No, this is not a toilet area!
Cat: Damn! She knows me too well.
Halki
Cat: Might as well have a nap instead.

Clever way to keep kitty from using your freshly composted bed as a pottie.
Racquel: I’ve got to keep on my toes at all times!
Outsmarted again! Cute.
We have the same problem with our two – especially when I’d freshly dug over the veg patch and put in the onion sets last year… we covered ours over with netting and then the little b…ers had the nerve to go and use my neighbours veg patch instead… how embarassing when he came to complain… but what can you do when you live in the countryside!? So I gave him another set of netting I had left over…. ways to keep the peace with neighbours eh! Miranda
Miranda: Cats have no sense of propriety! Glad you reached a compromise with your neighbours.
Cute cat – but I was more interested in reading your plant labels Nerines – nice.

Karen: Yes it’s taken years for those Nerines to establish themselves. I’m afraid the other labels are harder to read (lol)
Yes, they do have a way of knowing where the dirt has been nicely prepared, don’t they?! Glad you have a solution, it’s actually kind of elegant too. I used to roll chicken wire over the top of my raised bed after I disturbed soil for that very same reason (after finding one too many “presents”)! Not pretty, but it kept the kitties away.
Karen – A gardener has to be inventive at all times when it comes to animals and wildlife in the garden
My German Shepherd likes loose soil, too!
Tatyana: Mmm…same problem on a much larger scale (lol)
Now that fine looking contraption would come in most useful at my allotment
Anna: It is part of an outdoor run that we used to have for our pet rabbit. I’ve recycled it and it has been very handy over the years!
