Cats V. Garden, Round I

[enduringplum]

I didn't think my catnip sprouts would make it as long as they did- the biggest one was actually a three inch tall plant!- and today they all met their end upon Sterling's discovery of the psychedelic kitty corner of my garden (yes, I know catnip is not actually a psychedelic, but it certainly has a powerful effect on my beasties). When I went out to water this morning I discovered nothing but a crater, no doubt carved by Sterling's frenzied writhing in the dirt, where my catnip had briefly grown. The lamb's ears, marigolds, and onions around the crater were completely undamaged, not even a leaf out of place, but my catnip was no more. So I planted some nasturtium seeds there.

We'll be doing our catnip in a hanging basket, since there are so many kitties around here.

Good idea! I don't know why I didn't consider a hanging basket.
