Kitties!
The Baby here.
Daddy built a new raised garden last summer, and this year he's gonna put KATNIP plants in it!
The nip in the yard gets heat stress, but this corner is shaded from the hot afternoon sun.
There's all kinds of wonderful soil and compost and amendments in the garden.
Daddy even got worms for it!
When it rained so much last month we had some fat juicy suicide worms crawl into the Catio.
Good Times.
Johnny is looking forward to the fresh nip.
His face is healing up very nicely, he has two little scabs and his fur is growing in already.
And Felix would like y'all to purr and purr for his Gal, Annie the Crabby Tabby from Fuzzy Tales.
She's been very ill and had to spend the night at the vet.
We are all quite worried and purring in shifts for her to get better.
Get well soon, my Special Girl!
My Evil Nemesis, the HummerBird, is HERE today!

Dis is good news, catnip is a wunnerful plant all by itself but yoo already knew dat. When our beans bawt dis house da naybor gave mom a cutting from her nip plant and mom rooted it and put it down by da fence below da hill. IT'S GONE NUTS! Der is nip growing down der and all mom does is cut it three times a year and dries it in da garage and we haf fresh nip and dried nip and...oops, sorry, we were getting carried away.
ReplyDeleteOh yes, we have been purring out hearts out for Annie and we won't stop.
ReplyDeleteNip Plants? You know how you have 13 of us there? Well, move over, we're moving in! Long live the nip! We LURVEEEE it! Just thinking about it is making me drool. Can we come there tonight? (Don't tell Mom about this, ok?)

NIp plants are fantastic - ours are under 15cm of snow but Äiti says she will start some off inside this spring. So they only ever get one growing season here unfortunately. But they are very popular :) We hope you can resist the temptation and leave to grow and grow and then they get even nicer :)
ReplyDeleteWe're really worried about Annie too and are sending her purrs and purrs. Paws are crossed.
Sounds like it's gonna be an awesome garden! I'm glad Johnny's face is healing up! Poor guy.
ReplyDeleteThat is a beautiful photo of you The Baby! Your garden sounds like it's going to be pawesome! We're so glad Johnny is healing up so quickly. We're sending lots of purrs to Annie so she gets better soon too.
ReplyDeleteWe just love how your mom and dad paint with bright cheerful colors. The nip plants are going to be so happy in their garden bed.
ReplyDeleteWe are purring hard for Annie!
We grow catnip in a hanging planter so that the neighborhood cats don't chow down on it before we do!
ReplyDeleteYour Dad built a great looking bed! Hope we get updates on the nip regularly!
Your male human is so talented! When it comes to any sort of gardening duties, my human is beyond clueless. Really wishing I could move into the Catio just about now!

ReplyDeleteBaby, I really love that first photo. The sunshine put patterns on your ears, and it looks so cute. We love nip too, but our nip plants are buried under lots of snow, so we have to wait a while to get some fresh stuff. We are also purring for Annie.

Wow! you are getting a whole bed full of nip! Mum grew nip plants for us for this year but it looks like the cold has killed them all.
ReplyDeleteeverything about where you live is simply AMAZING!
ReplyDeleteAll of the vibrant colors, the catio, nip....so much time, work and love go into what you do......you are incredible!
Aren't you afraid that ALIEN CATS will get in and bite on your nip plants? I wouldn't be able to sleep!
ReplyDeleteThe catio keeps getting better and better! We're figuring out a way to get out to Las Vegas so we can hang out on the catio!!
ReplyDeleteYou're very pretty!
ReplyDeleteIt sounds like a great nip plot. We'll go to visit your friend/
Nubbin wiggles,
Oskar
These are lovely photos! Your garden sounds like it's going to be awesome! I'm so glad Johnny is healing up so quickly.
ReplyDeleteHi Baby, your garden looks like it will be fantastic this summer, the raised bed is very nice! Since you are the only one of the lounge kitties who goes outside, you will have to harvest the nip and bring it in for the others and not eat it all yourself - LOL!
ReplyDeleteYou kitties sure have it made with a catio and a pawsome garden.
ReplyDeleteWe are purring for Annie too....
--JB
The fresh Nip will be GREAT!
ReplyDeleteWe've never eaten a worm before. Do they taste like chicken?
