Da weed poleece

Dr Tweety: "Az evfurry cat knowz, Delilah & da Maximilian are da worker catsez around here.

I yam retired so I don'ts party-picipate in da gardun nonsense, but da weed patrollin' iz sumpin' dats da other catsez wants to tellz you about... so I yam lettin' dem takes dis bloggie frum here."

Delilah: "Thanks Uncle Tweety!

I have been feeling a bit blue. Why you ask? Well all I can think about is these darn weeds in MY garden.

Mommy just can't seem to get behind the eight ball, so I have to supervise her every move. At least Daddy has an excuse!"




"There are weeds in the lamb's ears."

"There are weeds in the crocosmia and in the pathway."

There are weeds down the veggie garden border..."

"And weeds up the veggie border."

"I even see weeds in the Joe Pye Weed!
Maybe I better enlist Uncle Maxi's help!"

Maximillian: "What's up Poppet? Yikes! It's pretty bad isn't it... I don't know how we'll ever get them all."

Delilah: "If you think the back garden is bad, wait until you see the front Maxi. I think I better go find Daddy."

"Daddy? Bring that bucket over here quick! Mommy is shirking her duties and you've got to help Uncle Maxi and me fix things up."

"This weed invasion is worse than I first thought... they're taking over the entire place!"

Maximillian: "It's true Daddy... just look around you. I'm beginning to think that weeds are alien creatures from another planet!"

"Just look at 'em all! They're even creeping into the herb garden. Ack!"

"I think I'm just gonna sit this one out Missy D. Too many freakin' weeds!"

Delilah: "Uncle Maxi! If the other cats biggify this picture, they're going to see your shaved buns!"

"Sorry Poppet... I'll have to take that chance. I need to get away from these evil invaders."




Daddy: "That's okay Missy D, I'll help you."

Delilah: "Well it's a good thing Daddy because Mommy is running away too!"

Daddy: "I have a great idea Delilah... I'll cut them to itty bitty pieces. That should do the trick."

Delilah: "At last... I can invite you into my garden. Come on in!"


"Although there a few weeds still left, this is the upper bed where Dr Tweety likes to take a poop."

"And here are the nutritious lettuces that Mommy makes into fabulous salads... although personally I favor BBQ."

"And Mommy got her act together after all... the veggie path looks much better Mommy!"

"Since we're back here, you can see that the perennials are just starting to bloom."

"I think Mommy watered the veggies too. It just takes a little encouragement from us cats."

"And if the sun stays out, the blueberries might even ripen."

"I am so happy that MY garden is in order.
Now try and find me in this last picture.
You can biggify it if you need to."

Oh, horrors! Weeds. But at least you have something growing in your garden. Whatever you do, do NOT -- repeat NOT -- invite Jan over even to take a peek. Everything your mom planted will fall over and die. The only thing we grow here is weeds.

The garden looks very nice after you reminded your dad to weed. Good job!

Weeds or no wees, your garden looks a hundred times better than mine. Yes, you guessed it, the weeds have completely taken over, even in winter. That SS of mine is just a lazy bum.

Daisy said...

I am glad to see that everything is back in order in your fabulous garden!

Memories of Eric and Flynn said...

Your garden looks lovely. Can you come over and sort our mum out because our garden is full of weeds. She says it is because they went wild when they were on holiday for a month. We told her she has been home for nearly two months so that is no excuse.

Cory said...

We have weeds running amuck here too! Dad and mom tried to pull some yesterday, but it's never enough. Sigh. This year is worse than most.

Your garden does look lovely and we can see some of the same plants that we have in our garden!

A garden is hard work for humans, but we're glad to see they put the effort into it so you can patrol it without seeing many weeds. Good going!

The Crew said...

Delilah, your garden looks lovely, weeds and all. Mom got after our weeds & crabgrass this weekend.

We're still twins, dear. I must admit I've put on a few pounds and, if I was allowed out, those pictures of you amongst your flowers could be me!

THATS a serious garden! We are mightily impressed...

Robyn and The (Mostly) Badass Cat said...

You are smart to be retired, Dr. Tweety. I agree that BBQ is better than salads. I do like a little salad once in a while, though. Sanjee says I'm strange. Like she's not?
Anyway, want to go for some ice cream today? It's really, really hot here and some tasty dairy goodness would hit the spot.
