Thursday in the garden - cat meets chicken

Here we have a little story about two cats, a chicken and a garden.
Madame Hen
We had a car journey down to Somerset.
Darcy eyeballs Madame Hen
When we arrived we were introduced to something remarkable, something we have NEVER seen before.
We stared at IT from inside, and then after some loud MEOWING, we were realeased!... we rolled and ...
...then stalked...
we loved the look of this HUGE birdie ...
... everywhere smelt different and we could even smell other .... C-A-T-S

Darcy loved BIG birdie most ...

Madame Hen is 10 years old and in full charge of her garden. She sleeps in the greenhouse...
No one messes with Madame Hen. Not snail, wasp, dog, OR CAT.
Note: No cat or birdie was hurt in the making of this post.

  1. Oh my Cod, we're seriously in love with Madame Hen. She's the cutest hen ever! Mom recently read an article about dwarf Wyandottes and absolutely fell in love with them. How fun to meet such a cool birdie!

  10. hi, just found your blog. . .not quite sure how!

    Our cat is actually quite wary of the hens, ever since Martina charged at her in full sail- a sight guaranteed to put fear into anyone!

    Love your pics and the cats are gorgeous
