The Canadian Cats
Meezers At Large
Nice day and hardly any smoke.
Our new fence…look ma no pathways through the fence. No introoders can come bouncing through the fence now.
Come have a seat on the railing. *Shoko rubs paws together.*
I gotta admit this guy is tiny.
Ya, this is my new place mat that mom brought me back from Paris. I’m allowed to eat up on the island cause my food is one Kali shouldn’t have.
It’s also The Cat On my Head’s Selfie Sunday. This week Kali has the honour. Pad on over to The Cat on my Head blog and see the furries that have clicked themselves stupid for the bestest selfie. Click on our hostess’s name and drop in. MOL 
What? I just woke up….lemme see,you want me to take my.. *click*…whoops wasn’t quite ready. MOL 
Have a great day my friends.

Tiny bird! What was it? Apart from very brave to venture into your garden…hope you are feeling better too, Kali. 💕😺😺💕xxx

The tiny bird is a hummingbird. We don’t hang a hummingbird feeder anymore because they can be messy and sticky beside that there are lots of kitties looking for prey over here. Funny, I have never shown no interest in hummers. Kali however would catch about 8 during the summer season. She never killed them though and they could be saved.

You have hummingbirds in Canada?? Thought it would be too cold…I know some of our native moths are the size of hummingbirds..I try not to encourage birds because of the girls, although Lily is the biggest hunter. I don’t think Charlie has ever caught a thing in her life! 😸💕xxx 🐟🐭🐤🐰

The fence looks great. It is good that you can share the cost with your neighbor.
LikeLike
Sharing the cost was not to the neighbour’s liking when we said it would be $1,000 each. He hummed and hawed for over 2 months and then hubby found out if the cement was put down on an angle so the water ran off from the fence post, the posts didn’t rot anywhere near as quickly. So he examined them and the posts were put in this way. Then the cost for each became $600….the neighbour liked this. Voila, a new cedar fence.

I can understand that $1000 can be difficult for the average person to come up with. $600 is still a lot but it’s way better.

Are those Cow Kitty’s pawrents next door? The fence looks like cedar, very pretty. I understand about the smoke because of all the fires we had in this area last summer. I’ve never experienced anything like that before, and hope not to again. Much of it was deliberately set by sicko’s. Anyone with respiratory problems suffered. Shoko, you are very special to be able to eat off a French food mat!

Cow Kitty lives on the other side of us. The fence is indeed cedar and we plan to use Thompson’s Waterproofing. The smoke is not bad today and hopefully the firefighters are gaining with the fires.

Cow Kitty lives on the other side of us. He was able to climb the fence when he was 6 months old. He goes where he pleases. Cow Kitty was in a fight last night. He came over here to mellow out and I patted him. We then went to see Bob Dylan and when I got back, his fur was all in place and he looked well….then he went to his own house.

They can be very rude! Imagine starring at you through the window. We found the syrup attracted ants and mom has a phobia about ants so the hummers have to eat or drink the million bell petunias.

Mom and dad are glad the new fence is going in as the other one was pretty disgusting. Us cats wouldn’t walk on the top of it anymore…far too dangerous. You should hit your neighbour up for some eggs, after all they are eating your bugs. MOL

The Hubby swears that he saw a hummingbird in our garden a couple of weeks ago, but I’ve not seen one…wish I could! We don’t do much for the birds in our yard either, because Patty O’Malley and Sweetie may ‘enjoy’ that a little too much. We talk about putting up a fence; The Hubby wants wood and I kind of like the old-fashioned chain linky stuff. When we go out and see old-timey houses with metal fences and gates…now, that’s what I want!

Our neighbour wanted a chain link fence because they are cheaper but it wouldn’t match the other 2 fences. I have no idea how chain link fences last but if we had it on the other 2 sides I’d agree.
