hope your pet sorts it's self, animals are pretty tough, my old cat survived all sorts.
Yeah I didnt really know what to call them, but I could see myself treating them as pets.
What are you going to do with them, eat the poorly one?
Thanks, animals must go through more pain than humans, mainly because they cant tell anyone

your pears might be too exposed, also you need a second pear tree to pollinate each other to get fruit.
thats easier if you have two close to each other. Maybe a second small one near by?

i have celery, broccoli, cauliflower, cabbage, lettuce, silverbeet. ma carrots were overtaken by big weeds & didnt get enough light, they were like baby babys. swedes were in the same predicament. & ma peas never got enough water. have mint & parsley growing in low pro tyres off the side to the main garden. got a peyote aswell but it doesn't like the weather much & grows way slow. i have a mad worm farm in another stack of lows.oop... can't forget the compost heap(always reminds me of the fraggles). moved into this house last august & it has the lowest back fence. so this is the first time i haven't had a 'crop' out the back in like 9years. i even bought some geraniums & have them growing out the back, i suggest ya read up on the effects of the powdered rhizomes before ya laugh!! heres some pics of a crop from a couple years back, just remembered about my icmag account lolz,

i always need a garden in my life. straight organic!! as ya can tell by the type of veges... i live in a cool climate, make do with what ya got!! anyways thats my spiel. CHEA

Nah, I'll give them to this pub down the road that has loads of chickens or maybe snap their neck, but I haven't got the heart to do that. They're much too old to eat, they're 3, be like leather.
I often wonder if cats or dogs get headaches

Cats might have their own type of headaches, I dont think they have enough stress to get proper ones.
The other day I was thinking if cats dream and what they dream about.
I guess they must dream of chicken, milk and being pet continuously.

try a little one. like a crab pear tree.
It wont be as big as a normal pear tree but it will help to get fruit from the big one.

The cat I had used to dream and make little mew noises in it's sleep, it was adorably cute. I always assumed he was dreaming of catching and eating rabbits, sleeping in the sun or rolling in cat mint.
I cut my grass yesterday, but still haven't planted anything in hte garden. Haven't really had time as my dad has been in intensive care, coupled with having a load to do at work lately I can't be arsed. Supposed to do loads of stuff today but I really just want to stay at home and loath.

There's a cherry tree in my garden, but the damn sparrows get at the fruit before I can, every year. Bastards.

We have a pecan tree or two in our yard, and the squirrels eat everything before we get a chance to.
Shit sucks. Kinda.
