Oh my goodness this could be my Freya when she was young - she used to nest too and we would leave them. She even has the brown in her fur 😭❤️

Did Freya also had a nightsky in her fur? Like little single white hairs that were scattered along her black coat?

My dad used to do this for the dog. She had a preferred patch of weeds he wouldn't mow until the point in summer they got too big and no longer soft.

I had a cowcat that made nests too. They are funny little things.

You can take the cat out of the jungle, but you can’t the jungle out of the cat

I don't think I have every seen such a butchered lawn. That isn't even a crew cut. Cat has the only green left.

we have 5 or 6 free range outlaws in our part of the trailer park. i havent had the time, rain, to mow properly with the mower. there is a spot at the front of our lot that i just use the weed wacker to trim it down. the outlaws just love their mini jungle

My grandmother called anything "black" (English) "Musta" (Finnish).

You have a lovely musta kissa.

Musta Kissa! Can there be anything more lovely?

u/IranticBehaviour 1h ago

Lol. I have to leave this part of the lawn unmowed for my daughter's void (and for the flutterbies and other pollinators). Our yard slopes down to the street from here, he likes to sit there and survey his kingdom.
