Society of Feline Gardeners- Thursday in the Garden with Jonesie

::Meowwww::

Welcome back my garden!  I am so grateful for my wonderful yard.  The weather this past week has been purrfect, so my mom and dad have been spending more time outdoors with me.  I make sure that I show my appreciation by making a fuss over them.  Humans like that.

My sedums are starting to turn pink! 

The hollyhock is blooming and is gorgeous.

Grete woofie likes to run around the yard and stay close to me.  She never trips over me.  She's nice that way. 

Grete and I just like to sit together and watch over the yard.  I feel safe when she is around.
Figaro was busy snoopervising the grapes.  Mom and I think this photo is funny because it looks like he has a grape plant growing out the top of his furry little head!

Our tomatoes are starting to ripen...and the one in this photo that is nice and red?  Well...it has already been eaten by mom and dad!

Dad was busy working on the garden and he built a new arbor for the clematis plant.  It had overgrown it's last trellis so dad built something more solid.  I'm hoping they put a bench underneath it because it will be a pawsome place to take a nap.

Figgy and I approve!

You have a lovely garden and your parents work hard at it. Good job!

Spring is here and the weather is quite warm and pleasant. So the flowers are coming out sooner than expected. SS need to work at fertilizing the budding plants this weekend.

I am always so impressed by your garden, Jonesie! You do such a great job supervising! I hope your humans are properly grateful.

The Figaro-plant pic is reaaly cute ~ it made me larf!

PS: An' I adore that new arbor for the clematis plant ~ it needs a lovely cat bench on it (maybe wiv a name plaque for your beloved cats at the Bridge)

Your yard is looking great! A wonderful spot for you and your furry friends to hang out! That hollyhock looks beautiful! The PM just has some regular dark red/black ones. She is going to plant some different coloured seeds this Fall.

Andrea and the Celestial Kitties said...

Aw, I have a kitty who toe rubs too! My Star will lean off the edge of things to find toes, it's adorable. As is your guard puppy, I'm sure he makes you very safe out there.
You have a wonderful garden!
Today was the first time I was able to participate in Thursdays in the Garden, but because I have no garden of my own and my kitties are indoor only, I 'borrowed' my mother's gardening kitty! I hope that qualifies..

Alasandra, The Cats and Dogs said...

The hollyhock is lovely, we had never seen one.

Hi Grete!!!! Fenris wants to come play with you.

Just Ducky said...

Yeah it was a good week of us too, or at least mum and Virginger out in the garden. We have some new outside kitties too.

The Island Cats said...
