House in the Trees

Forums Newsletter Share

Moving around the back of the Jelly Bean Border, you'll get this view of the house from the Ram Paddock. The shrubs have bulked out nicely, and I'm trying to get Stephen to move the fence so I can redefine the Jelly Bean's garden edge. He's ignored me for over ten years. Hmm...

 The trees in the Jelly Bean Border provide good shelter.

The closer of the two gums is a favourite scratching tree for cats. The trunk is on a comfortable lean, so the claws get a great work-out.

 That's an Almomd tree in the foreground.

It's common to see two or three cats climbing the leaning gum at one time. There's lots of high-wire acrobatic showing off, including some risky, languid tummy showing sessions. Cats certainly have strange ways of relating to each other. And it's really scary to watch them.
