Banjo






Hi everyone.  Sorry I haven't been around much lately.  Not only have I been busy, but I accidentally deleted this post when it was supposed to go up last Saturday.  (Sigh.)  

This is a picture of our cat, Banjo.  He showed up about two years ago at one of our family cookouts, trying to steal the food.  He was such a pest that dad jokingly said we should do like the old timers up in the Appalachians used to and turn him into a banjo.  Instead, we started feeding him.  

The picture was taken at our first cookout this year, where the only thing Banjo tried to steal was our camp chair.  As you can tell by his expression, Banjo considers himself supreme ruler of our backyard.

  1. Well, he thinks he's the obvious choice to rule your back yard. After all, who else is better qualified? {BIG SMILE, wink}

    Valentine rules our house, since he's an inside kitty. He'd like to rule the neighborhood, but the neighber's cats don't agree with that idea. {SMILE}

  2. Ooh, turf war! At least he can rule on high from the window ledges.

  3. {LAUGH} Yes, that's just what he does. Valentine rules the neighborhood he can see from the window ledges, complete with glaring at any intruders who dare to come within his view. The cats outside are not as impressed by this as Valentine feels they should be. They tend to either glare back or ignore him. He'd rather they left permanently. {SMILE, wink}
