FATCAT--Totally Stoned on Catmint!
As a follow-up to The Cat's Meow...Felines In The Habitat I offer the story of "Fatcat" (Yes, that is his name) who lives across the street from the Habitat. Fatcat got the word from other felines in the 'Hood to check out the catmint.

THE CAT'S MEOW...Felines In The Habitat
"Attracted by the aromatic foliage, especially any that has dried out, cats may push against plant stems, knocking them over. Often they roll about on the fallen plants, crushing tender stems and leaves. While this is not likely with hybrid catmint, should it occur, the only recourse is to construct a round cylinder of turkey wire, or other material that is sturdy, to surround the target catmint plant."

This post is to provide a quick update for those who may be wondering how things went last Sunday during the "lawn conversion" demonstration on Olive Street in Petaluma.

A LAWN TIME AGO...
"The sheet mulching method not only saves work but it rebuilds soil depleted by lawn care practices. I didn't invent it. I don't want credit for it. This information just needs to be out there."

About this blog
Frank Simpson
Frank Simpson is a community observer who comments on scenes or conditions in Petaluma's public areas, streets and neighborhoods. Occasionally, articles are written by (or about the adventures of) The EVEL Twins (Triplets?): Boris--Frank's EVEL Twin and ACE PINS Photographer; Igor--Boris' EVEL Twin & The Real Prince Of Darkness; and Ivan--The Source Before Darkness & Light. The EVEL Twins are sometimes joined by ZELDA--The Real Queen of Mean. Recently, the Twins (two plus one) and Zelda packed their bags and "caught the last train for the coast"...never to be heard from again. However, they do check in from time to time. Fortunately, the Petaluma Fowl & Wildlife Consortium has stepped in to fill the void created by their departure.
