Our branches

Kitties, LOOK at this pile of branches from all the tree limbs that came down in our yard! And there is another one a bit smaller too. You can tell how high the pile is by comparing to the mailbox. The pile is taller than Mom!

Our town is sending some strong men and trucks with chipper-uppers round to collect the branches and turn them into mulch. Mom was super excited because they may do our street first! So maybe by the end of today we will have a view of the street again.


*I* just want to be able to go out on the deck again. But Mom says No, not yet. There is a nasty dangly branch over the deck and she doesn't want it to come down a bash a human or a kitty. We still have much work for the tree "surgeons" to do.

Edited at 6 pm: Branches still here. I guess they weren't able to get started as soon as they hoped. Or some people called the town and said they had not had enough time to get their branches lined up at the curb. Maybe tomorrow?

  11. What happened to bring the branches down? Did you have high winds or storms. You all stay inside until it is safe to go outside.

  12. Tree is always grow back quick in spring, May be they cut down the branch just for you to be safe in winter.But it's nice to have a good look before they do it !
    and Simba, after they done the job, I'm sure your mommy will let you out : ) Be patient my friend !

  13. I remember the snow storm now. Of course, the news said more limbs were down for this snow than the hurricane that hit earlier in the year. Hope you didn't lose your power if you did it wasn't for very long.
