| Chica keeping watch in front. |
We are all on introoder later cuz there have been some funny things going on outside our house.
 |
| While Sweetpea keeps an eye out back. |
One morning last week Mom noticed the bird feeder was missing from the branch on the tree in front. She went out and the hook it hung from was pulled down straight. She looked all over the yard and did not see the bird feeder so she headed up into the woods behind us. Not expecting to really find anything, she noticed something shiny under a tree a ways off the path - it was the bird feeder - empty but still OK.

| The woods behind our house. |

| The feeder!!!! |
She took it back to the house to clean it up and refill it, noticing teeth marks on either side of the plastic - one BIG hole and an indentation on the other side.........what do you think it was?
 |
| Sorry about the fuzzies - Mom was so shook up! |
A black bear! Mom never saw it but has had them visit before and this is what they do - either bend the feeder pole down to get the feeder or pull straight down to get it and then take it with them when they leave. The teeth hole was the final clue! No more feeders left out at night from now on!!!
UPDATE - we still have some sick kitties that could use purrs. Yoko had a really rough week last week and we thought we were going to lose her but she is doing much better on different antibiotics. Snowball is better but Only has a UTI! We wonder if it is the litter, water, food or something causing everyone to have this!!!

Holy Cat! That's one big beary scary introoder!
We are purring and praying for Yoko and Snowball
Hi guys!! Just a thought...when I first came to my furrever home here, we did not know but I had a bladder infection. long term...and it was all from HARD ACT FOOD!!! Everything tells that cats stay most healthy on soft food...I can still have hard food, BUT ONLY PRESCRIPTION...if lots of your kitties have UTI it could be hard food...try switching at least to a brand that is only for cats with UTI problems...just a thought...paw pats, Savvy
(oh my CAT. Seriouslies? A ... BEAR? Yipes! )
Purrs for your babies to feel better soon....
BEARS? Wow! We hope you keep safe but can take some pics for us. We're purring for you, Yoko and Snowball.
We have black bears too here in the neighborhood. So far they have only come to 2 yards away. BUT: I hope you don't go into the woods again like that. It's not worth it. I have a similar situation. I live on privately owned greenbelt. Nothing but woods all the way to the city line. It's that way all the way up and down the street. The backs of homes are in the woods.
Your babies will get purrs and prayers from here. I love them and so does mommy. xoxoxox
We're sending healing purrs to Yoko and the others. If you like quotes with original photos you might like our other blog Boomer Muse http://blog.laylamorganwilde.com
ohmigod a bear in your garden, please take care dear friends!I imagine a bear is friendly but this one can be hungry or upset about something and in this case it's better to stay far away from him! :)
I'm sending purrs and love to all kitties!
Luna - WE LOVE LUNA
Wow, a black bear?!
Purrs and Prayers for everyone.
A bear? wow. Glad it was just a little bit of evidence and nothing more serious.
purrs to you and the kitties. Dealing with sick kitties can be hard on everyone
Oh no! I'm sorry to hear that so many kitties at your house are feeling poorly, but we're happy to hear that Yoko is on the upswing.
And the thought of black bears is very scary. I know Nellie of "The Cat from Hell" has the same problem outside her house.
It's a good thing your kitties are all inside.
