We are ginger and white brothers and enjoy sharing our adventures together walking in the fields. Sadly Eric left for the Rainbow Bridge on 19.03.2013. I joined my brother on 1st May 2017 so now we are together again for all time.

Friday Flashback and Caturday Art.

 This week I have two very short posts that more or less follow on from last week's when their grass had disappeared. Both were from June 2009 and the first was originally an Easy on Sunday

Eric: We do still have some more long grass, it just means I have to go further if I want to sit in it. I hope dad doesn't cut it too soon . He says as soon as the weather is good, it's all going to disappear like our other grass. I'm going to make the most of it and have an easy Sunday sitting in it. I may even nap in it.


Flynn: While Eric is guarding the grass, I am taking it easy on Sunday and stopping to smell the flowers.

The second was posted a day later and was a Mancat Monday

Now there is some new hay in the barn, we have to work very hard on mousie lookout. We make sure mum pays us well with treats.

I am joining Athena the Cat Goddess for Caturday Art.

For Flynn I started with Frida at 60%, then Beauty at 35%

For Eric it was Landscape at 50%, then Abstract at 40%.

They looked very happy in the green grass and the hay, they always had fun. I really like the art too.

A nap in the grass sounds delightful, as does hunting the mousies in fresh hay. Such sweet boys they were.

Just don't be in the grass when the mower is busy out there...

Did you find any mousies?
Petcretary has them in our cellar...and ancient house with cemented rocks for a foundation, and a dirt floor, here we call that a Michigan basement...sigh...
She says UGH, but if she would let us we'd be as good as any kitty helping to evict them...we are terriers afterall, and Dalton isa RAT terrier! LOL!

Those boys loved their grass it seems. I bet they have it over the Rainbow Bridge now. How could they not. Your art shows the boys with beautiful ginger furs.

That grass was pawsome and the hay must have been a pawsome spot for mousie hunting.

Cool artwork and thanks for the puzzles!

I think Flynn was checking to see if something was hiding in the flowers. Hunting in the hay sounds fun!

Boy, looks fun in the long grasses, doesn't it? And certainly a big responsibility keeping an eye out for mousies. I can tell you boys take your jobs very seriously, however Mom's treats also help! Speaking of Mom, her catwork is extra pretty. I hope that Mom and Dad are both well. Until next time...Jean

The tall grass is so great for stalking mousies. We like that Dad considered that before cutting it short (as he sometimes had to). We are glad the boys had those tall fields.

TBT keeps a part of our smaller yard wild, just for us to listen, jump, and grab mousies... There is a never-ending supply of them.

Dear Eric and Flynn and their Meowmy, I live now in FloryDa where I don't have access to grass in my yard. It's a Catio with bwicks. So sad. I miss lying in the grass and pretending I'm a ferocious lioness hunting prey. Of course here I hunt frogs and baby dragons, so maybe I still have it good. Love, Dori
