Thank you everyone for your kind comments. They were greatly appreciated. I actually felt better after I read each of the comments. It's good to know I'm not alone. I've committed to step away from the news, which feels like a good choice.

I spent the summer holiday working on the new raccoon-proof feral feeder. It was the first real day of sunshine we've had in weeks, so spending the day outside was glorious. The new feeder is coming along nicely. Hopefully it will be finished soon, then I can post some pictures. The ferals have been using the it already, which is fun to see. I'll tease you with this photo.




Nahum loves leafy greens. Lettuce, kale, celery, spinach. He rarely gets worked up about food but when he spies some leafy greens, he can barely contain himself.


He especially likes it when it's a large leaf and someone holds it for him.



Theo always turns up his nose at greens. However he can't resist corn. He loves anything corn. Popcorn, corn on the cob, corn chips, cooked corn, World's Best Cat Litter (ground up corn) - he loves it all.

  5. I have a very cute photo of Skootch when he was a youngster with an ear of corn on his placemat. He used to love gnawing on it. He also used to like begging for asparagus bits when I trimmed the stalks. He seems to have lost interest in all that (and food in general!) in his later years. Too bad - it was really funny when he once grabbed an ear of corn off of my dinner plate!
    But Theo ... CAT LITTER????

  6. Nahum and Theo, it's good you have different favorites so you don't have to fight :-) One of my boys loves rice. I don't give it to him but he always tries to steal it!

  8. I am so glad to see that there is a raccoon proof feeding place for the ferals. I cna't stand raccoons any more. They cause so much trouble.

  9. The Human says: I had a tiny female kitty named BooBoo who went INSANE when she smelled or saw asparagus. One night she ate 6 spears (and would've eaten six more but I wouldn't let her for fear she'd literally explode somehow--she wasn't very big, LOL.) Go figure. Spitty could not be less interested in any Human Fudz!

  11. Mom said one of her kitties, Hopping John loved green peas and corn as well. Had a tiny dish of his own whenever mom fixed them for dinner. One of the girl kitties, Robin, had her own dish of scrambled eggs. She loved them and had some once a week. NO one ate greens tho.
