The Guard

There being something new in the garden to climb on, of course the cats have to try it out. In force. Twiglet and Beano are testing the roof of the main coop and run. Mitzi is seeing how much pressure the top of the additional run can take.

They are the new Guard of the Chicken Coop.


Mitzi's done such a good job that she has been promoted to Honorary Chicken.

  2. It looks like a great comfortable place for chickens and kittens! But if Mitzi starts laying eggs I would look into a kitty counselor!

  7. Your cats don't try to eat your hens! They're adorable! Or are they vegetarians?!

  8. The cats are wary of the hens. Don't forget, they are used to large birds - my darling Henry used to go out of his way to peck a tail, so they all knew to scoot when they saw him. Now these hens are even bigger, and the cats are such cowards!

  9. They don't go after the hens? That's awesome! Yes, I guess they would be used to having large birds sharing their space.
