What hoe!
In a burst of Spring-ish enthusiasm, I bought a hoe today and have already cleared the path of unwanted plants as far as Kuan Yin. I also planted a scabious in the long narrow border and am planning to restart my gardening notes so I stop repeating mistakes.
Whilst clearing the patio, I also found one of Sébastian's kills which had been left. Lovely. So, Sébastian's new kill count is:
- Rodents:
Rats - 1
Mice -3739
Voles - 11 - Birds:
Sparrows - 5
Dunnocks - 1
Robin - 1
Wood-pigeon - 1
Uncertain - 8 - Other:
Frogs - 1
Unidentifiable remains - 3
I'm actually very glad to be getting presents again. He's been being fussy about food, drinking more water than he used to and losing weight, so I naturally worried. Despite him being overweight by any definition. Two weeks on vet-prescribed "sensitive" cat food and he's back to normal, and the weight is slinking back on. A couple of kills is rather reassuring.
