Garden Thief

December 24, 2015 By: Summer Samba27 Comments

I am very mad today! You won’t believe what was going on in my very own catnip garden this week!

This cat was wantonly enjoying himself — all over my nip!

He knew he got caught, and he ran off right after this.

Of course, I had to go out an inspect my garden to make sure it was not too badly defiled.

I know you are probably thinking that since it is Christmas Eve and all that maybe I should be nicer and share my nip garden with other cats. But this guy had a collar on, and I’m sure his family can give him all the nip he wants! So why did he have to try and steal mine?

    He may have a collar, but if he was outside unattended, he doesn’t have good parents so maybe cut him some slack 🙂

    OMC! Your nip looks furabulous. Mine is looking a little sad since it has been below freezing a few times now. Hope you all have the best Christmas.

    ‘Tis the season for sharing – I’m sure if you shared some of your nip your neighbor would be very happy and cutting back the nip makes it grow better!! Merry Christmas.

    Awww Summer, maybe he got out and was lost and was lured in by the smell of your luscious nip? Or…maybe it is like mistletoe to him and he wanted you to come out so he could give you a big kiss? Hoping that kitty truly does have a home, and if so, hoping Santa brings him some of his OWN nip! I can see by your expression in the first photo that you were QUITE upset! Love, Cody

    As your mom is the best gardener we know, your nip is maybe better than his. Purrs

    At least he didn’t steal all of it the way our neighbor’s cat did once…We think your nip must be way more delicious and superb than what he has access to…but um…he could’ve asked befur stealing any, you are a gracious kitty and would have given him a good lot of it…and then sent him packing, MOL!!

    Maybe he was Santa in disguise? I think he’s rather handsome but now that he knows where the good stuff is, he’ll be back.

    he fact that he has a collar on doesn’t mean his family is as generous as we would all want them to be, Summer. Maybe he really needed that nip?
