[Fwd: OT - freecycle item]
Saw this on anther group, and it's not so OT he
******************** wrote: I know all the cat-lovers on this group will understand and appreciate this item which has just appeared on the Orkney freecycle email list: Wanted: Miniature Zen Garden and/or accessories Mainland Posted by: xxxxxxx Hi All A few years ago miniature Zen gardens were all the rage but seem to have almost completely disappeared now. Does anybody have a spare/unwanted one gathering dust they would be happy to part with? A friend of ours is very keen to replace hers, her kitten having mistaken it for something entirely different. Could collect from anywhere on the Mainland and am in Kirkwall most days in the daytime. |

Dunno about over there, but I made a Zen garden out of a a large black baking tray, some white sand from the local gardening shop, a bag of black decorative rocks from the local discount store, and one of theose old 'afro' combs cut down to size. It does the job, even though its not necessarily 'authentic' (although, sure, a Zen garden is - by the teachings of Zen - whatever you wish it to be) |

It does the job, even though its not necessarily 'authentic' (although, sure, a Zen garden is - by the teachings of Zen - whatever you wish it to be) I wanted to try worm composting, and was put in touch with a nice old gentleman who would put together and deliver the bin some soil/compost and some worms as a starter kit. When he dropped it off, as soon as he noticed the then-resident cats, he warned me that although you could leave the cover off, especially if you wanted to dry it out a bit or encourage the worms to dig deep, it was best not to do so if there was a cat in the house, as cats tended to view containers of soil as useful for one purpose only! (I'd have added 'as insecure support for bits of vegetation that can be eaten and/or have a tendency to fall over on the floor as a cat walks by' as purpose #2 that cats have for containers of soil.)
