Still, you should be able to read those important words "fenced in". That means that my cats stay in my yard. Oddly since that post was written, one cat, my favorite, died in the yard. I heard a weird noice, looked up at the window, heard it again, fainter, and I went to check. I found Espy under the deck, dead. Vet said heart attack. At least he got to die in the yard that he loved so much. And no spinach was hurt in the incident. I do grow tomatoes and string beans back there and it's the bird poop I'm concerned with. |

It's always something, isn't it? The up side to bird poop is that it is rich in phosphates, and definitely good for your garden. -- Welcome to the New America. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hA736oK9FPg or E Pluribus Unum Next time vote Green Party |
