Keep reading to find out why Mom's demerits I'm are mounting up...
Nope it isn't because of these delightful flowers and plants
I like looking at them on my deck
The root of my disgust lies in the demons below.
Mom has become infatuated with a pair of chipmunks
who are living in our yard. (The squirrels just had to get in the picture. I tried to tell them it was NOT about them.... but you know how squirrels can be...)
It is as dry as the Mojave Desert in Raleigh. Mom keeps the regular bird bath full of water for everyone. She began to
worry about the Chip and Dale being thirsty and having no way to
get water in the tall bird bath. She made Chip and Dale a mini watering hole out of the bottom of another birdbath.
She used two bricks to make them steps up to the water.
I wish you could have heard her glee the first time
Chip and Dale discovered their own personal watering hole.
Shhhhhh....I must admit they do look pretty darn cute standing on their hind legs taking a sip. Thus far we haven't seen them use the brick staircase but they come to our yard every day. The watering hole is under a tree and even the smaller birds are using it. We also have a pair of jack rabbits who are welcomed to use this watering hole. FYI: I've decided to forego demerits just this time.

Oh, Madi! Chip is so cute!! or is that Dale?
ReplyDeleteNow Madi, you know squirrels just have to be the center of attention whenever possible. The chipmunk is sooooooo cute!
ReplyDeleteWe are glad you decided to forgo the demerits just this once.
Hugs & Purrs,
J, Cindi Lou and The Krew
I am not laughing at those squirrels, I do not think they are cute, I do not love the watering hole, OH who am I trying to kid?
ReplyDeleteMadi,
ReplyDeleteHappy Summer! Doesn't your mom know dat it should ALWAYS be 'bouts you? I gots dose guys in my backyard too but I chase dem away. Mom and me sure wishes we could send you some of our rain. We is expecting more tomorrow, I will see what I can do. ;)
Woofs and Licks,
Maggie Mae
They sure are furry cute and they must make GREAT watching! Too bad you couldn't go git one...
ReplyDeleteCorrect me if me's wrong, but aren't squirrels in da rat family and rats are in da mouse family and....well you nose......cat + mouse equals disaster. Jus' sayin'!
ReplyDeleteVery sweet of you Mom to take care of the wild critters. We have plenty of Chip and Dales here in MS. They luv to tattle on us when we are deer hunting. Hollering to the deer "beware", "intruder in woods".....
ReplyDeleteThose critters are mighty cute, but not as Beautiful as you Madi!!
ReplyDeleteMadi, you can't give Mom demerits!
ReplyDeleteThe chipmunks & squirrels don't have life as easy as you!
They will never take your place as cutest cat!

oooooh, Madi! Mayhaps C & D would like to come indoors and cool off? Good times!
ReplyDeleteNow, Madi! You know you are queen of the house and that will never change. Let the lowly animals have their thrills too. You are above all.
ReplyDeleteTell mom to get rid of that virus though!!!
Darlin' Mads, we will be purraying your friend's computer will soon be de-virused and they will be back blogging.
ReplyDeleteWe can understand your dry conditions.....we're not sure we can remember when we last had rain...we just know it was several months ago....and we're had almost a week of 3 digit temps....THE GOOD NEWS is that today is supposed to only get up to 96!!!!!!!!
We purray Chip and Dale are staying cool!!!!!
xxxxxxx
We just love the watering hole you made for all your furry visitors!!! We have a birdbath in our yard and our robins are very clean - LOL!!!
ReplyDeleteWhat a creative use for the bottom of that bird bath. I have one like it, and I gave up on it in disgust after trying to get it filled. I'll have to try this for the chipmunks and squirrels around here.
ReplyDeleteThey are so cute!!
ReplyDeleteLicks,
Ruthie
Tell your mom she better remember when she leaves out water for those dang chipmunks that ... they built nests in Gizzy's Mom's gas grill ... TWICE. And ... they've started to eat holes in the gas grill's cover. Cute as they are, Gizzy's Mom wants her chipmunks to move to someone elses yard ... and be quick about it too.
ReplyDeleteYou better hope Puddles isn't reading this ...she might just fly right up in her magic laundry basket and have her way with Chip and Dale!
ReplyDeleteYour pal, Pip
P.S.: They are pretty cute!
Madi, your mom is so wonderful to feed and put out water for those squirrels and the chipmunk!! I love them!! My granddad used to feed all of them and train them and we would have about a hundred in the yard!!! He always called them "bunnies"!! I grew up loving them. It's raining here hard and very bad storms today so I'm trying to catch a break between the lightning to read some blogs. These thunderstorms are bad...if you need water...I have about a foot in the garbage pail right now and I cannot turn the thing over!!! Lots of love, Debbie & Holly

ReplyDeleteYour Mom is so sweet to be concerned about Chip and Dale, and just think they will give you lots of delights in watching them.

Madi, maybe your mom is doing so much for Chip and Dale because they provide such good entertainment to you!!
ReplyDeleteThat chipmunk is very cute. We get squirrels here that try to take over everything too.
ReplyDeleteSweet!!
