Garden cat gardens.

It's been almost a week since we officially took Relic in and got him all fixed up. He's adapted to the change in circumstance beautifully.

He goes out every morning after breakfast. He does go off on little jaunts, but he really still spends most of his time sleeping on the patio chairs. When he gets hungry, he sits on the back step until I notice him and let him in. At first, he'd just eat and run, but now, more often than not, he has a little cat nap before heading out in the great outdoors.By 9 pm he's usually in for the night, which he spends alternating between snuggles with me and Dave.

And when I'm outside in my gardens, he confident enough to be a full-time snoopervisor - even out front!

I took some time on Sunday to get my spring bulbs planted and Relic followed me right from the back yard to the front. That's something he's never done before. While I dug and planted, he made himself comfortable...

Unfortunately, it was on my kneeling mat, so I ended up with sore, dirty knees... but hey - at least Relic was happy!
