Nice green tomatos that are lightening up are slowly picked by her, and enjoyed. I come in from watering the garden last night and there she is in the living room with a nice plump one under one paw and a look that said "What?". Sure glad I have lots of plants so we can enjoy some too. Anyone else have critters that enjoy us having a garden in *THEIR* domain? Well, no. But only because we fenced them out of the garden. Our two large dogs would otherwise be very happy to eat tomatoes and lots of other veggies. They wouldn't leave much for us! I tried the fence trick once but she got around it so I figured I simply needed to plant enough for her and us. As for veggies in general, she most think they are meat or something - she harvesyts the garden, he just begs. I've not found a common veggie yet that she or the male do not like. They beg at the counter for any we are cutting. They eat pickles, onions, garlic (in small qtys), potatos, celery, carrots, even green chili (really small qty here). The one thing I've found that both do not like and run from is BEER. If they get a whiff of it, they're history. Oh, and the female loves moths and flies. I've watched her in the past harvest tomatos. She slowly circles the plants, sniffs each tomato, selects the victim of the moment and very delicately plucks it. At least she doesn't ruin the plantG. |
