Not a single leaf. The god damn squirrels had eaten it all. They did leave the chives, rosemary and thyme. Our cat is a hunter, but evidently it does not hunt squirrels. ohmy 03

But now, Mrs. Heat worries that a dog would upset our cat. I say let them sort it out. Cats are more than able to hold their own. My daughter has a bitch and after its mother died, it was lonely! She bought a kitten, having previously told the dog she would be getting a kitten. When the kitten arrived, the dog was very accepting of it. Now they are inseparable. Only thing is, it seems the cat thinks its a dog!

The squirrels certainly got more of them than I did though. They'd sit in the tree enjoying the feast and laughing at me when they saw me watching.
