Hi Neil,
Jangers really looks happy and relaxed on the planter.
Such a cutie pie !!!
Hope he has some catmint to enjoy as well.
I have to say I have never heard of catmint.
But after googling it,,, I see that it might be
a good thing to try for our kids too.
Hope I can find it here in the States.
As it is,,, we have lots of catnip growing in our yard.
All our kids love it.
Best Regards,
Gary

Gary - catmint and catnip are the same plant.
You'll notice the bald patch above Jangers' left eye. He had a contretemps with another cat, it would appear. A week of antibiotics and he's fine. Just need the hair to grow back now.

Do they transplant well after being started in a pot?

I'M Glad your baby Jangers is going to be fine and was not hurt
in a bad way from his encounter with the other kitty.
Give him a hug from me and my babies.
Best Regards,
Gary

Cat charging flat out toward the obliterated tree at end of video clip is a point of interest.

I checked out the site mentioned earlier and found a Cockatiel. We had a pair, but since Cher, the female died, Sherlock, the male hasn't quit screeching, (I ought to rename him Judge Judy). I am hoping that putting the fairly realistic paper cockatiel in with him might shut him up for a while. I hope I don't fall over the edge to the dark side of cutsie critters. Hopefully I can keep my cats with the first name Grumman and all my hawks named Curtiss.

Built in an evening, kinda like the 12 yr old me with a plastic kit. Thought I'd let the cats at it before I pit it in with the real bird. Loki just gave ne the "Are you for real" look and Mellow, who is anything but, wanted to play kissy face. The model survived.

Hi SMP,
Love the pictures of your kitty with the bird.
Very cute kitty.
Reminds me of our outside kitty EBONY.
Thanks for sharing them with us.
Best Regards,
Gary

Ya know, if you keep that up it could become a tradition!
