Our last mangoes are going back to mother nature. We’ve had enough, a whole month of eating mangoes as only fruit two or three times a day and giving away to neighbours and friends.
Pretty thieves
Beautiful weather continues and lots of cats coming in and going away. Too hot to go out on Australia Day we had our sausage sizzle at home with A/C.
Most schools start tomorrow so everyone is back from holidays.
Cautious, Sarah.
Even more cautious, Whetu

Cats featured today Smeegle, Calico, Harry, Millie and Preston, Ram and Pharaoh, Pepper and Lilly and Sasha.
We managed to harvest around 50 mangoes before the cockatoos got them. There was a party going on at the back of the tree where they get more sun see one of the culprits below. All ripening in paper bags now.
Yummy!
We have an excellent group of cats at the moment, changeover time. Today a bit of sunshine for a change.

Busy days
September 17, 2009 by templetons
Cats featured: Chichi, Jasper, Joey, Michael, Rascal and Tiger
School holidays are here and we are full. Cujo left yesterday and we welcomed Chloe a 12 yo British Blue X adopted at 11 at the AWL, how wonderful that there are kind hearted people that adopt older cats.
Minty a black Persian had a brush (not happy) and we got rid of some of her knots. Fifi enjoyed hers but only for a short time, photos soon.
Beautiful weather with warm sunny days and cool nights, we love this time of the year.

Chichi waits for her cuddle time very patiently and helps at the office frequently.
Most adorable and good natured
Joey stayed in while Tiger came out for a walk and looked out through our window. Both doing well, but shy.
I'm staying here, Joey
