RE: Babies: Cats and Plants

Before our cat, Asia, passed away she really enjoyed our move to the
country.  Having been raised as a house cat in the city, the woods were
a real treat for her.  We loved to watch her catch sight of the deer
that move through here daily.  She'd slink along the ground in the yard
until she reached the tree line and then proceed to stalk them, moving
stealthily from tree to tree as she monitored their progress.  Such a
hoot - our big hunter taking command of her territory.

Good for you taking care of that baby! Sugar would probably chase deer,
she chases any animal no matter how big, that gets near her territory or
her mama. She's fixed but it doesn't seem to matter w/ her.
