Feathers Appear when Angels are Near

This is Feather, a 20-year-old kitty who lives in Shelley Rockwell's garden in Cleveland Park Washington, DC. Shelley reports that Feather is half-feral, but friendly enough. Her she is enjoying the shade on a hot and humid summer day.

Toasted Bulbs

Sarah O'Neil, also known as Sarah the Gardener, submitted this photo of her cat: Toast.

 

"We live near Waiuku in New Zealand I have a blog: https://gardeningkiwi.wordpress.com/ and a YouTube Channel:  https://www.youtube.com/user/gardeningkiwi/  where Toast is a frequent star (when she chooses to be!) She also appears on my Facebook page from time to time."

"Toast is 12-years-old and she loves to hang out in the garden, and is often not far away from where I'm gardening." 

Shadow Dancer

Laura Livengood of the InterLeafings blogs says, "Haku is a 12-year-old Tabby who, for the last four years, has been an indoor cat and is just getting used to the freedom of being outside again. Since we moved to a 100-year-old farmhouse in Ben Lomond, CA. At his age he's less into chasing squirrels and more into surveying his domain from the porch."

Laura writes on her blog that: "Haku's sister, Zen, has always been good at tucking herself picturesquely into the garden, preferring to observe her domain from the safety of a leafy bower. Evergreen shrubs, trimmed up and well mulched, are natural shelters year-round."
