Society of Feline Gardeners- Thursday in the Garden with Jonesie


 ::Meowwww::
We're back from our Cat-O-Lympic break!  I spent lots of time resting in the garden this past week.  So much of the work is done and now I sit back and do a little snoopervising while dad pulls weeds and waters my plants.
 I still have to get up on my paws and walk around.  I can't let things slip.  You know how humans are.  But...it's enough to make a garden cat very sleepy.
 I can rest, but I still have to keep my eyes open.  That's the real secret to being a successful master gardener cat.
 Even when I wash, I have to stay alert.
 Here is the basil I have been growing for mom.  She says that pesto is going to happen soon...not that I care about that.  But if it makes her happy it makes me purr.
 The phlox smells wonderful and looks very pretty.
 We have lots of Japanese Anemone blooming too.
 The Dahlia's are starting to pop!

That's all for my garden this week!

We have basil! The Male put some in a pot and it grew! We also have some tomatoes and spinach--but that's it for this year--but I'll say it's a decent harvest for year one at the new house.

Jonesie, You is the prettiest Gardener I efur saw! But I also have to say Bennette's paws were awfully fetching in yesterday's picture. It's an embarrassment of riches today!

We can see how that lovely, relaxing, garden could make you sleepy. Our Mommy is MOST jealous of that good-looking basil! Happy Thursday!

You are ever vigilant, Jonesie, even while bathing. Good job!!

You are so right about having to stay vigilant. We MEOW every time our backs are turned those weeds start taking over.

You work very hard keeping your garden looking lovely Jonesie. The dahlia is a very pretty colour.

You have such nice flowers, we don't have many. We let Virginger have the week off.

Ellen Whyte said...

It's beautiful! We also like your furry tummy. Do you have to care for it yourself or do you get brushed?

Angel Junior, Orion and Sammy said...

Lots of purrties Jonesie! but none to match your beauty!

We especially like the dahlia. TBT is smiling at the basil...

Hiya Jonesie! I have been out of the blog comments for a bit, but trying to catch up. I luvluvluv your garden! I'm gonna have a really nice garden to watch when we move in a month. I live indoors only, but I will be able to see all the pretty flowers from my Bird Watching Tower, Paw pats, Savannah
