Often people may wonder at how i can be a wildlife photographer ,live on acreage and maintain a healthy happy balance between wild and domestic.
I can..it has been hard and financially costly but it is possible.
Occasionally Cleo likes to join me on a walk..she is like a dog..she follows me around..and follows me back inside the house..
Dinnermintz prefers the front porch if she goes out.and there she stays..maybe to venture across the driveway and hide under a bush…the driveway being in our front yard and safe.
Pickles likes to go scratch up the garden..then dart back inside.
Marbles likes to go out the back garden and relax.
This is in the cooler months…when the snakes are not around..they spend the warm months in the house or the catio and are inside before dark every day of their lives.
Today is World Cat Day..and i wanted to share my girls …
imagine a world without our feline brothers and sisters… it would be a boring and cold world without a purr and a meow… Happy Cats Day to all purr-things of the world :o)

Thankyou Amy 🙂 the toes rarely get out of boots but when they do ! will keep doing what we do…we can have a mix of all creatures and keep them happily without any dramas..well the occasional snake manages to somehow get through and wreak havoc..but hopefully we have really got that sorted now..two snake bites in the one doggie is more than i can stand!

I have two cats. Hmm, let me rephrase that – my neighbour has two cats! They might get fed over there, but the spend a good deal of their time over here either sleeping in the shadehouse or in the garage – waiting to scare the living daylights out of when I go into the garage. We can always tell when the cats have been in the carport – the paw prints down the windscreen are a dead givaway. Weird thing — if I don’t see them, I miss them. How weird is that?

Hahaahh Edgar yes it is weird..wel not really..they become part of our daily life..the things we see..and when they are not there we do wonder..and they are so stealthy that yes even mine will pop out and scare the daylights out of me 🙂 My sister had a cat who could not stand her children..i did not blame him..he would leave the property (farmland) when they were home from school..and be gone until bed time..one day a chance meeting with her neighbours and Herman walked up..she asked where he had been…the neighbour said is this your cat? she had been feeding Herman and he had his own bed and toys at her house..even got xmas presents..they called him Thomas hahaha seems he was living a dual life that nobody knew of..as my sister went to walk back home Herman followed the neighbour..seems school was out haahaahaha 🙂
