I’m at our local park usually several times per day and my cavapoo Figgy likes to pay special attention to the squirrels….. we actually saw a fox last night at 800 in one of our local neighborhoods

Her favourites, balls to bat around and the mice to play fetch.

So. I made it up to my father's house on my GS.

Five days, all camping, and *literally* almost died no day one.

(No, seriously-- I was millimeters from death, and I have the hematoma's to prove it and my GS is down a mirror, but that's another story.)

Anyhow, my father's partner has been growing catnip in her herb garden for their two cats.

This was the result.

Stoned out of their **minds**.

My friend made it into a meme within five minutes of me sending her the picture.

Good looking cats. What breed are they? I'll guess... Himalayan?

Close-- Siberians.

My mother talked my father into getting them, and then shortly thereafter she shuffled off this mortal coil due to a glioblastoma.

My dad kept them-- they're litter mates. The big one is Pratt (gorgeous, but dumb as a post) and his sister is Whitney (who always looks like she just did the walk of shame, but has taken out five hummingbirds that we know of).

My dad's a retired military pilot-- hence "Pratt & Whitney" for their names.

Nice...

Yeah, cats aren't the smartest creatures on the planet. I still love 'em.

Won't say it's been easy - but we're slowly getting to a tolerable range between them. Biggest concern is when two of the dogs want to just get in her face. But - 3rd pic is showing how it's been lately.

That’s a cute pic with those big dogs and that tiny little cat. Very nice to see. Anything’s possible.

PS - Never heard of the cheese tax. Had to look it up. Funny. My cat does the same thing but with Doritos, it’s hilarious.

And once you get that song in your head...it never goes away. Kinda like the theme from Sanford and Son...or the Brady Bunch.

That dog in the video is cute. Think it’s a Shiba.

Our 6 yr old rescue...very much a sweetie, she's fitting in nicely (it's been 5 weeks since her arrival). The end of the couch is her preferred spot.
