The 50 Plus Cafe, Pub, All-Nite Greasy Spoon and Dive Bar

This was still little barn cat Ethyl. Fred was more to the front barn (hay, now cars) and Ethyl was in the back barn with the critters. All 4 horses were still alive and well. Geezer used to eat in a small stall (now the goat stall/maturity ward) at the front of the barn so the other critters wouldn't steal his food. Everyone had eaten and Telly, the red horse you have seen pictures of, and Bully Poodle/Calypso were standing near the front at the outside edge of the stall. The Landlady was there - I wish I had been. Horses have about one way to feel something - with their mouths. No fingers, a massive nail at the end of each leg - they use their lips. I call it snozzling. Telly saw the wee three-color cat and decided to investigate, so he gave her a snozzling, not knowing that this was/is Ethyl. One simply does not just snozzle Ethyl. Ethyl does not wish to be snozzled, as she considers this to be Rude Behavior. Ethyl hates Rude Behavior in a horse and she will not tolerate it. She turned on him, grabbed a bit of lip in each very clawed paw, and bit him on the lip. He jerked his head back, both in a bit of pain and apparently with a bit of emotional hurt, too, and he turned and walked back to the middle of the barn. Ethyl went on about her rounds. Making rounds/going on walkabout is very important to barn cats, it seems.


Ethyl moved inside a very few weeks later and is currently lounging against my travel bag.
Been a long time since I was snozzled! 😅🤣😅
 
Just make sure you plant a bunch of bulbs together. They don’t do well at all singularly so plant in clumps.

Same with Cynthia, they like to bramble so take a bunch of cuttings and put them all close together.

Hell, Mrs wonderer and I would love to come out and help you plant em.
You may need to translate for us 'over the pond'ers
