A Welcomed Visitor
Got a bit of a surprise when I went down to close the kitchen doors last
Thursday.... http://www.olifant.co.uk/Olifant/Pub...ks/RSAN-6D8A55 This was a bit of a welcomed find, because in the five years that we've been in Twickenham I've seen a year-on-year increase in the amount of wildlife about. When we first moved here I was rather struck by the singlular lack of birds (other than pigeons) in an area that is, by London standards, covered by a lot of greenery. Other than foxes and the occasional curious rat we hadn't seen any other wildlife, so a hedgehog was a very welcomed resident. It also explains the reduction in snails and slugs that I've noticed over the past couple of weeks. Our cat did what any self-respecting 18 year old cat would do... sit under the table & watch with dismay as the whole sorry spectacle unfolded. Now, to encourage him/her to stick around we'll put out some supplemental food - tinned dog food is normally recommended (and if we can find something that the cat doesn't like then so much the better). I'm sure I've read that fish-based foods must be completely avoided, but the St Tiggiwinkles site didn't say anything on that issue. Anyone know? -- Richard Sampson mail me at richard at olifant d-ot co do-t uk |
