Anyone know ??

Of course animals can see in mirrors and the tv, not sure they can work it all out as it moves from frame to frame, and is possibly a bit quick for them to focus into properly, but both my dogs and the cat sit and watch Animal Hospital, when Tiggy lets them of course, cos he is usually up there in the front pawing at the screen being his usual pain..lol

When Chaz was a pup I put a mirror down on the floor, thinking he'd like another dog to talk to like a budgie in a cage, he shot off howling, then crept back to it and sniffed behind it, couldn't fatham out where the dog kept going off to...lol now they know in their own way and take no notice..

cheers....Cher

oh I've got gnomes and toadstools all around a cherry tree in the garden, I love these fairyland garden ornaments, and all around the garden you will see fairys in various colours, and moles plus a notice between the ponds with a squirrel on it that says, Squirrel Crossing, up amonst the shrubs I have lots of different stone plaques, one of them reads. '' The kiss of the sun for pardon The song of the Bird for Myrth You are closer to God in a Garden Than anywhere else on Earth''

The bird table has all sorts of feeders hanging from it, and a little open flower with a fairyon it for drinking/bathing water, the birds love it.. then spikes of metal with bells on the ends that go down to one spike, which is pushed in the earth, then when the wind blows it tinkles Windmills turn around ... At the other house I had a gnome walk around some trees and through a gap in the hedge and down to the ponds this house garden is all at one level, so I have them dotted around the plants and trees....when the landscaping is down, I will restore my gnome and fairy walk...

She doesn't know. She will just try to pump more oral antibiotics into me again. I have been there too many times to do it again. This is not my usual GP btw. She would know better

Oooh, that sounds lovely!! :o)

I have two large (salt and pepper shakers) ceramic toadstools that I set in the garden with a HUGE green frog sitting between them... usually peeking out from under the rhubarb leaves. I haven't added to my collection yet... but I have every intention of doing so. Whenever I'm in WalMart, or other stores that have gnomes and fairies, etc... I stand looking at them wishing I had all my bills paid off and had some extra money to buy a few. :o)

I also want to get a statue (not terribly large) of St Francis of Assisi to put out there to watch over all the little visitors to the garden. :o)

Peace! Gemini

LOL I can just see Tiggy pawing at the screen with the dogs in the back of him trying to peek around to see what it is he's pawing at.

That's adorable! Casper got a little freaked out the first time he ever saw the fan move back and forth from side to side. He backed up out of the room, all the while barking at it with his hackles up from the scruff of his neck all down his back to his tail. Casper was only little, and my Mom was still with us... she, Matthew and myself were almost falling off our chairs laughing... but of course "Mama" had to go tend to Casper to make him feel better too. LOL Eventually he got used to the fan and stopped even noticing it.

Same thing happened another night (around the same time) when I had gotten a bag of garbage ready to go out to the roadside. It was sitting there in the kitchen full and all tied up. Everything was quiet and I was emailing a friend with Casper laying on the floor beside me, while Matthew and my Mom were watching TV in the other room. Suddenly something shifted inside the garbage bag and it slowly started to move to slide slowly down toward the floor. I thought Casper was going to have kittens... he backed up under the computer table with his hackles up and grrrrr-ing at the bag. I was DYING laughing, but had to pick him up to try to calm him down at the same time. Matthew and my Mom were in the other room wondering what the heck I was laughing at, and I was crying from laughing so much that I had a hard time telling them for a few minutes. Poor little Casper was traumatized by a garbage bag. hehehe Thankfully he got over that too, and doesn't fear garbage bags. ;o)

Peace! Gemini

Oh how funny Gem, my two were just the same with things we take for granted....lol Bit older now but not tht very much wiser, they still do the same with new things that just happen suddenly..and Lucy hates flies, she'll jump up and run for cover if one comes through the house, she goes mad.....thinks it's the buzzing, but she has never been stung by a wasp to make any association at all with anything that buzzes and hurts....and I can't calm her of it....she comes running over to me with her tail between her legs frightened to death...sometimes she'll try and chase them...weird..lol

hugz.....Cher..

Aww, poor little thing. Buffy was stung by a bee once. We didn't know at the time and couldn't figure out why the one side of her face was puffed up like a balloon, until we took her to the vet to have a look. It hasn't stopped her from biting at wasps though.

I haven't actually seen Casper bite at wasps, but if we get a fly in the house you can see him laying there with nothing but his eyes following the fly about the room. When it dares to get close enough, Casper snaps at it. He's only caught one, and the look on his face as he was spitting it out was priceless.... "YUCKY!" LOL He does get annoyed and will chase moths around if they get in the house, and that can be quite amusing watching the acrobatics of him trying to get the moth as it flits out of his reach. hehehe

*hugs* Gem

Now see it must be the buzzing of a fly with Lucy, cos she'll sniff at a moth if it is crawling on the floor, but won't snap at it like she does with flies...gotta be the buzzing noise that flies make that send her daft, Chaz looks up startled if she darts after one or away from one...drives ya nuts ...lol

Sounds wonderful Cher but methinks you need a visit from Mr Titchmarsh and gang to get it all done! Wouldn't that be fun?

Eimear, working on a new garden but it's just big enough for one room :-)
