Mallika Pichumani made this cute kitty for my cat page.
A Canine,our dog, Bo. When neighbors tried to find a home for a male dog, I said no - I didn't want a male, log-haired adult dog...but some weeks later their friends, the ones who had found him and were looking for a home for him asked if they could drive out and let us meet him...
Ratstocats - Cat cartoon/drawings and poems...
Here is a true story about a "doomed" kitten that was seduced by catnip.
There's also a rather different version of a story with a familiar title, the Owl and the Pussycat.
Here is an article I wrote about Cat-Plants for a
publication called the Wild Foods Forum.
(BTW - Remember the Pied Piper? It is said that he used one of
these so-called cat-plants to rid that town of all those rats.)
Another plant-related story which I wrote for my local Audubon newsletter is "The Tree that was a Murder Witness."
My favorite liverwort :-) I've only seen it once.
ALso see info about Norlyn Bodkin's Plant taxonomy at 60 mph class at James Madison U. in Harrisonburg.
In addition, the Audubon Naturalist Society has lots of short term classes and weekend fieldtrips.
