I am so pleased to hear that Doggie is doing well. She looks like just the sweetest dog ever, and it is wonderful that she has turned into such a good watch dog.

My goodness, she likes turtles for breakfast, huh? I know it's hard to watch the reality of 'survival of the fittest' playing out in nature, and I have to remind myself that it is God's plan and keeps nature in balance. But it is hard to see....and NO predators better come near my scrub jays, not now that they have names and are eating out of my hand. Kitty, just don't name the turtles. It's so much easier that way. :-(

LOL
Living in the country I see nature at work everyday.
Yesterday we watched Mr Mittens catch, play with and eat a field mouse.
I could not watch him steal baby birds last spring. tho.
It didn't seem very fair that he stole them from their nests. :(
I know he took several but anytime I saw him with one, I took it away from him.

After she Caught and Ate one of the Squirrels, we put an Extra Name Tag on her Collar, so Now she Jingles with Every Step she takes. Hopefully that will Give Warning to whatever she has her Eye on that she is Approaching!
