Draclvr, I could set Dude's feeder and he'd be fine with it, but Willow just won't use hers. She'd rather wait outside my door until I get up, even if all I do is lead her to the feeder and point. If I don't get up for a while, Dude just goes over and eats her food while she's waiting at my door. The little ratbag is blatant about it, too; he doesn't even try to hide it. At least my hissing and slipper-throwing have resulted in her not bothering me early in the morning.
My neighbour feeds them when I'm not around. She loves the cats, especially now that Dude is her friend. We all look after our neighbour's pets. I'm on cat duty for a week in December for another neighbour's downstairs tenant.
I think I'm quite ready for another adventure.

I take care of a friend's cats while they're away camping several times during the spring, summer and fall. Her cats both use their feeders and she had a slight delay set so the more aggressive one's food drops first. I go in town every other day to clean litter boxes, water plants and give The Boyz some laptime!
Gardens put to bed. Time for more reading and gaming.

Good Morning everyone and Happy Thursday! Hagatha and Draclvr I also take care of my neighbor's cat when they are away...next time in December for 7 days. She is a British short hair...dark grey and very plump! I had a tooth pulled yesterday...not a fun experience. The roots were curved so the extraction was difficult and had to have 3 stitches. My dentist could use a sewing class...not very straight stitching! Glad its over. Soup and liquids for me today and salt water rinses for a couple days too. Coffee, tea and hot chocolate for everyone. Hope you all have a sunny day. Gerry

We're starting to have cold, sunny days with very cold nights now.
Yesterday afternoon a flash of light caught my eye on the water and I realized it was a dolphin. A smallish pod went by at full speed. They're such a joy to see. They always look like they're having fun.
I think I'm quite ready for another adventure.

What a treat, hagatha! Another warm sunny day here today... not normal for November. But I did get 3 daylily plants dug up, separated and replanted in a new spot. I planted some tall Asiatic lily bulbs in their place.

I did no gardening this year, so nothing to bring in. Maybe next year.
I looked out the window a few minutes ago and a Humpback breached, a backflip almost fully out of the water. They'll be leaving soon for warmer waters and the breeding grounds.

Woke up to a blizzard yesterday & just stopped snowing this morning. We got 20c of snow. Winter came in hard & fast.

Judith, I don't think I could stand your cold Alberta winters.
On the other hand, you get way more sun than we do, since it's always raining here in BC. I guess it's a tradeoff; cold and sunny versus warm and wet and dreary.
Drive safely in all that snow!

Hagatha, I do know what the weather is like on the island, my daughter lives in Crofton which is really close to Duncan. She & her husband often rent a cabin in Campbell River for a long weekend on their anniversary. Yes, winter is hear for us, but the older I get, the longer & colder winter seems to get for some reason LOL.

Good Morning Taintedfury so nice to hear you have a lovely Spring day! We are into Fall, but our weather is warmer then normal...we could get up to 70 degrees today. We will enjoy the warmth of the sun while it lasts! Coffee, tea, and hot chocolate are ready to go with Connie's breakfast goodies. Enjoy Friday everyone! Gerry

I was raised in Toronto and the winters there are abominable - extreme cold and wet at the same time, snow and slush and sleet and icy roads and grey skies. When I moved to BC I told my family they would never see me visiting except in the Fall. Toronto's 4 seasons are basically Bug Season, Hot and Humid season, Fall, and Ghastly Winter season.
