Hey are you following me?
Time for a break and smell on some flowers
Shhh I'm trying to sleep
Can't you pick them up so I won't get wet?
Old lady who followed with the house so the exact age is not so certain they said she was a kitten back in 1984. Has lived outside year around except when she has had kittens. Lived on her own hunting and food leftovers, no Whiskas ever:-)
Her name P***i sounds totally wrong in English ;-) nothing she cares about.. A master of hunting in her heydays, not only rats and some of them the same size as her self but also squirrels and hard to obtain birds like Magpies. Nowadays she seems to have lost her hearing and spend her days in a quiet pace. She really gets happy when you bring in some fish, no problem for her to pick them up from the water. The other cats thinks it's so annoying to get wet..
Days for kittens is over, she got her last kitten a couple of years ago and that daughter still lives here and is a true copy of her but... a complete gangster who blows by like a whirlwind and can take meat from the barbecue when you just make a little wink. Old lady would never do something like that, she just sit patiently and wait for her bones, knows that she always get the first ones.
(this evening she has picked up one of the Perches and ate it)

Thanks for your comment and why do the barns have that angle???
I noticed many of thenm are shaped in a weird way because they are about to collapse... but not that one... so why the angle???
thanks for the other explaination. It was the same way in germany I learned from some of our B&B-guests, but in DK it's different. Here the fields are usually together and much of the land is sold off...
Our farm has only 10000m2 left, which is only garden...
why do you live in the south of Sweden???
and where? we're on Falster and here because it's practical, but not because we love it. still it is quite nice... but the north coast would be better (barentshavet!).
So why did you move? not possible to work there?
Thanks for the bun-description. but to me that sounds like big savory wheat-buns. right or wrong?
Did you know that the northe-eastern part of Germany had been occupied by the Swedes once? I think you can still tell that from the language and the food! And frankly even the nature is simular in that area...! funny isn't it?!
have you see this post?

I'm so pleased you posted the photos M dear,I like your captions... they are just beautiful cats...I love how their eyes shine and contrast so well with the black fur.
When my Bob Cat sits on the window sill in the sunshine his black fur looks so shiny and takes on a burgundy coloured hue, it is so pretty.
That is a great age for the Mother cat...I hope mine live to a good age. ♡
Sarah Sofia.. Hope the angles have straighten out now:-) you don't find that kind of barns in the south, I call everything below Sundsvall (the middle of Sweden) as south. Maybe people from the very south have other ways of describing where I live. Perhaps they say it's north.. Hmm.. It's in the forest between Småland and Östergötland. I cannot make it more precisely in case the tax man would find me from this blog:-) Reason I moved was adventure, to find out more culture, nature, people and I actually like this region for many reasons not least the vast unpopulated areas and friendly people. Anyway I miss that northen part and mostly the summers.. There is also a special feeling up there, hard to describe sort of blues..
Big wheat-buns, you have them from after Christmas until Easter. Split in two with almond as marzipan and cream inside. On the top lid powder sugar mmmmm....
Baltic sea, many Swedish kings had dreams of conquer enough land so it would become an inland sea. They where rather close in some years and controlled land that now is Germany, Poland and the Baltic states. Riga was even the biggest town in Sweden but they never managed to make the Danish wave the white flag. Denmark has never been under Swedish custody.
There is a lot of interesting history everywhere not least in your own close vicinity.
No I haven't been to Kirkenes only travelled the road from Ivalo, Lakselv to Nordkapp. But hey!! you were standing at a very special crossroad!! I remember old stories of that legendary road next to lake Inari, the one that's marked Ivalo on your picture. Wonder if it still is an unpaved road, some motorcyclists like that kind of roads where you can skid in the bends.. well maybe someday..
Dianne..
You can see that this old lady has a brown hue in her fur when sun is shining. Is your Bob Cat more red?
Has all black cats got this colours?
M dear my Bob Cats fur is black but yes when he is in the sun he has a brownish/burgundy red hue to his fur.
No I dont think all black cats have this, I think it depends on their genetics.
Your 'old lady' as you call her sure looks good for her age. ♡
