My first cat, she adopted me, at the farm would bring various animals to the back porch. Most were gophers, yeah, and she would either have them stunned for the kittens to practice hunting on, or dead for them to eat. She was a real feral cat with her survival skills. She must have had strong instincts. Her domesticated instincts must have told her I could help her. The first time I saw her, she was walking across the yard with a kitten sticking from her.That might not be what kitty is thinking...
A former, late, cat of hours spent about six years watching squirrels on our deck. Tried to get them many a time over those years. Then after years of trying, he got the first one, proudly brought it indoors while doing an odd growl/meow to announce the long sought for success. He must have finally figured something out, because the following morning, we heard the growl/meow, and there he was with the second one. Was he proud? Most cat owners would say so.
I wish these kittens had the same instincts! My yard would love them. The moles here are so prevalent in this area and being organic, they have plenty to eat with all the worms.
ppp
would love to do a 3 drawer base but they only come in 18" or 24". If I took the small cabinet next to the space out I'd have space for a 24" but it'd leave a 3" gap and I don't want to do that either lol. So at this point my options are Replace all of the base cabinets or custom build something to fit that particular space. Hubby wants to do neither and said he could sand and stain the interior of the cavity and we could just leave the regular trash can in there. Ugh, even worse lol. After further pondering I'm thinking perhaps one of those kitchen cart/rolling island/prep table things would be perfect. 15x24x35ish would slide in and fit just right.... of course everything I find is the wrong size
