Hello, y’all! Vivian K. Perry here,
back on Jennifer’s Journal today to tell you how much I love this post.
No, no, no, not this blog post (shakes furry head).
This fence post!
Now that summer is here,
I take time out of every one of my days to prowl around Perry’s Point.
This is my favourite perch – a bird’s-eye view, if you will –
where I can keep a sharp lookout for little creatures in the grass like voles and shrews.
Now that sister Maisie and I will soon be turning nine,
we’ve finally come to terms with our limitations
and admit the birds around here are too smart and swift for us to actually hunt.
Jennifer says that’s a good thing, but we disagree.
I’ve been known to sit and wait here patiently for hours. I kid you not.
Hmm. Unfortunately, not much stirring here this afternoon.
I’ll check back again after sunset.
In the meantime, I think I’ll run out to the end of the point…
…to check on the mink burrows!
Chat soon!

Do you have a cat like me that likes to prowl?
What do you do with your summer days?

Jennifer gorgeous summer by the looks. I have tried putting bells on my cats because they all love to prowl. Catching mice Im happy, catching birds devastates me. A friend said put another bell on their collars and so thats my next step. Get ready for spring.

I know Kath, Paul and I feel the same way. Hate when they catch a bird. Vivian brought home a robins egg once and another time a baby wren. Heartbreaking! She hates collars but I guess I have to get some again.

They are good at losing their collars Jennifer, clever little things.

No, no cat here, I’m afraid, so I have to sit on the post myself (not really, it’s a garden seat with a table big enough for a laptop). I rather wish I had a cat – instead I have a rapacious dog that is the scourge of cats. So much less exhausting!

I love the idea of a garden seat for pleasant weather days. I hope your summer is going well, Frederick! Keep that doggie in line or I’ll have to send Vivian over. 🙂

You’ve got a great landscape to hunt in Vivian, I’m sure you let those birds go deliberately, not quick enough indeed 🙂

I had to do a double take at Vivian’s back legs on the post–how cute is that!? The action shot at the end is adorable. Such little sweethearts they are (even though Maisie is not on the post).

That’s amazing. I guess cats have good balance? My dog favors big broad stretches of land, with his eyes shut tightly.

Terrific balance. She puts her hind legs on the post and her front ones on the rail. Cats are better at some stuff than doggies!
