You Can’t Catch Miri!

Kitten Miri can be hard to catch when it’s time for toothbrushing. Later, she and Hana get their backyard back after days of rain.

Teddy in the Garden

When Teddy first moved in I was protective of him to a fault. He’d been diagnosed with FIV and the vet lectured me how he should be an indoor cat.

A cat walks outdoors among ferns, wearing a leash.

But that’s not who he was at heart, so at first I let him out on a leash and harness. Later I let him roam free but would carry him home if he wandered too far.

Finally we reached an understanding. He went where he wanted, which was mainly to visit nearby neighbors and score snacks. The leash still hangs by the door, untouched all these years.
