Trouble!

When we went for one of our walks I decided I wanted to see if the badgers were home so I went down over the bank.

Mum was shouting to me but I just ignored her.

She was scrabbling down after me still shouting, but I just kept going. Then Flynn decided he was coming too.

I sat down to look in the undergrowth because I know that is where the baby badgers were playing in the summer.

I was watching so closely that I forgot about mum, and do you know what she did? She threw a big lump of mud at me to make me come back up!!!

I don't care though so I showed her my 'tocks to show her a bit of mud won't worry me.

  7. That was brave of you to go after the badgers, but a teeny bit foolish too. I am glad you Mom was on watch and "encouraged" you away.

  9. She threw MUD!?! Why, so she could punish ya after wif a bath too?

  10. Careful, there are lots of vishus animals out there, specially with babies! We had to laff at the mom throwing MUD! Guess there wasn't anything better, and four footed critters aren't the only vishus things around your home. You would have gotten a bath after the mud if you lived here. Our mom had a kitty who, when the mom did something she didn't like, would pooh in the middle of the living room. Just saying...

  14. Eric you might need to not go looking for badgers and go off to far from home you could lose some of your roaming privileges. We would be sad if something happened to you. We think your mom was trying to keep you safe and she wanted you to come back to a safer place. The pictures are very nice. Hugs and nose kisses

  16. We are getting worried that you are going after these BadBoy Badgers. They are NASTY and you have to be careful. For once we are on your Mum's side - but we did like the 'tock photo in your reply to her!

  17. We don't have too many beasties in our backyard, just the rats that live in our trees.

    Glad you had fun explorin.

  18. Sorry, guys, but in this case we think your mom was right! Badgers are pretty scary, we here, and would make short work of you both. Best to listen to your mum, so you don't have your walking privileges taken away!

  19. We hope you didn't get spattered in mud Eric especially with you looking so pristine. Your mum was only looking out for you though cos badgers are very bad tempered.
    We love your tocks of disrespect!
    Luv Hannah and Lucy xx xx

  20. Mom was just trying to keep you from getting hurt. We sure don't want some darn badger hurting you two boys. Our Mom would have done the same thing. One time a long long time ago, Mom saw a rattle snake and she ran around grabbing everyone and shutting us all up. It was scary. Take care.

  21. Oh your poor mum's nerves! Besides being vishus, badgers will fight to the death to protect their young. Better mud than blood! You boys were very naughty! And you put your mum at risk too! Shame!
    Instead of 'tocks -and they are cute 'tocks, by the way- you shoul be showering your mum with your finest kisses and cuddles!
    We are overjoyed that you did NOT find badgers!

  22. Yikes! We've heard badgers are mean - you boys be careful! Nice 'tocks pic though. Very fuzzy! :)

  23. How's a cat to do a proper job of ignoring someone if they get mud thrown at the? Geez Louise!! But, as everyone is saying, your human just loves you and does not need you to get into any trouble with badgers!!

  24. You are NOT gonna believe this but Mommy says your Mum needs a whistle or *gasp* a SQUIRT bottle! Better than a dirt clod, though...kind of.

  25. Nice 'tocks there Eric, a proper pair of pantaloons!! :)

  26. Eric you are in so much trouble showing your tocks to your mom and not listening. Oh my cats she had to knock some sense into you somehow. You might be grounded...and put on bread and water...I'm just sayin'

  33. Your Mom was right to try to keep you away from the badgers. They are MEAN! Nice 'tocks.

  34. Badgers are dangerous. Your mum should have just grabbed you. She was probably worried you might get hurt.
