Bon...Sometimes I have a hard time seeing them they are so fast! They have not come back here yet, they are still vacationing in a warm place, probably in your neighborhood and up in her Canyon!

Any progress on your Catio?

Yes, my sister in Colorado says same about hummers - they have all left for warmer climes, most likely mine.

I have Rufous, Anna’s and Ruby Throated hummingbirds in the yard.

Poor kitty still has FIV but her numbers have improved. She’s currently at my son’s home - and indoors only. At the moment, he is afraid to move her back to my home b/c she has little to no immune system. I’m hoping for a visit...

I’d get another cat but I have a lot of travel plans this year to visit relatives all over the country, I do this every other year - so maybe next year. I miss having a cat - the mice are getting brave again.
