Teil 758 – Dienstagsrätsel

Yesterday I had the above emergency so our riddle is one day late. Marvi got hold of the little bird that had obviously fallen out of its nest. Luckily (for the bird, not for Marvi) I was standing close by and could rescue the little one. As I am now quite an...

I see you still habour illusions concerning Islay, The Bully. I will probably have to dash to the vet immediately should he miss the chance for a short tussle. So unfortunately you are all wrong and d) a nervous Sander was joined and attacked by Islay and both fell...

Another Monday, another riddle. Did you have a good weekend? Here it was warm and humid, a combination the cats do not really like. Therefore their activity level was not very high but Sander climbed the little maple tree at the pond anyway. Then it looks like he is...

You should never underestimate cats! As you can see, first Joschi tastes a bit of Marvi’s tuft of gras, then the two meet for a cozy tête-à-tête under the shady maple tree at the pond. So I „win“ in both cases. 🙂 PS: This week I am taking the team to...

Like you I am still not sure whether I will shortly find a horde of kitten storming the cat buffet or whether our mystery guest will disappear. There really has been no indication that the cat is/was pregnant – only that it was extremely cautious and –...

Would you believe it that I did not even have the time to look for a photo with Monday Morning Riddle potential? The garden is driving us crazy at the moment. First all that rain and now the warmth, everything is exploding, particularly the weeds! So instead of a...
Happy Birthday, Joschi!

Today we celebrate Joschi’s birthday and for once it is really THE day because he was born on May 15th exactly 12 years ago. Out little dwarf king „Alberich“ dislikes the cold and enjoys more naps than he used to but apart from that „Shawn the...

Teil 748 – Der Garten im April

We knew it! Last April was the coldest in the last 10 years. What began so promising with our blooming magnolia froze off the tender new tips of the camelias and hydrangeas. On the plus side, the tulips lasted longer than expected and we discovered a couple of new...

Happy Birthday, Isfrid und Islay!

In contrast to our Ms we know for sure that the Is were born on May, 1st. Sadly the start formation is no longer intact and we now only have an MI4 (was alledgedly in charge of Aerial Reconnaisance) instead of an MI5 (Domestic Intelligence and Security). I am pretty...

Teil 741 – Da ist doch was?

As all regualars and cat owners know, „meows“ are a form of communication reserved for humans. Between cats body language rules. „Listen“ to the following discussion between Marvi and Islay I witnessed a couple of weeks ago. To make it easier...

Congratulations, Micki and Sabine! You guessed correctly. Answer c) is right. Sander is a little too obvious (and too loud) to go undetected. The bird flies away and all he can do is follow it with his eyes. I don’t know when you are celebrating Arbor Day, but...
