Comments (3)Thy plants are likely with the Blight which is Early afflicted. Hie thee to the market and from the plantmonger procure a potion of copper which fungus kills. Pluck off the offending leaflets daily, and weekly anoint thy plants wholly with the potion. The affliction is obdurate and cannot be vanquished, but its unrelenting progress can be hindered and delayed....See MoreCat behavior . . . requesting your wisdom
Comments (17)It's true, you never know with cats. When my kids were growing up we had many cats and dogs at one time. In addition to those we adopted from the shelter, we took in whatever showed up. Somehow the cats all adjusted to one another. Some paired up and established "best friends" status; others did not. But I don't remember a single cat fight. That changed when Rocky arrived as a stray. Annie, a female we had at the time, gave Rocky a hard time. He took it until he one day he didn't. It was the cat fight of nightmares. Water didn't stop it. Annie ended up with a nasty bite and I ended up with a worse one, thanks to my own stupidity. When they finally separated I was so eager to get Rocky upstairs and away from her that I grabbed him from behind. He, of course thinking that Annie had come at him again, whipped around and opened up my wrist at the base of my thumb with one of his canines. What a mess. That was six years ago, and I still have (and will always have) issues from that injury. So I'm a little gun-shy when it comes to cats not getting along. Peachy and the new cat would be upstairs, out of my sight and possibly out of my hearing. Oy. I shouldn't think about potential difficulties at night, when I'm tired. :-)...See MoreDawn's Wisdom on seed starting.
