Today we had a wild cold blast from Antartica, that reminded us it was only spring and it could still be chilly, and not to rush wearing short sleeves and shorts. Mum braved the wind, rain and hail to go out for dinner with her dad. Gdad was in town for some meetings so mum and him had a tasty dinner, then mum got groceries coz she can't sleep well with only a half a toilet roll in the house.
On her way home, while at the bus stop she watched a largish pigeon wandering up the street looking for food. It was 9.30pm and he should have been at home at the pigeon house, instead of wandering the streets, so mum took a slice of bread from her loaf in her grocery bag and broke it up and let him have a late night feast.
Awww mum you softie, now you are really looking like a mad middle aged women, out on the streets feeding the birds.

Your mum has a good heart, Poppy. That is something that is all too rare on today world. Be very proud of her, dear girl, It seems sad that our mum's have to even think about being branded as middle aged bird feeders when they perform simple acts of kindness. Thank God for a mum that does the right thing.
ReplyDeleteOur mum now wants a gray hairy rug like yours. She says she isn't sure if it isn't just because you look so adorable sitting on it. She's been needing a change and loves what your mum has done with her decorating.
Todays photo of you is one of the most adorable ever!
Beauty and sweetness personified. Love to you
I think that was nice of your human to give the bird something to eat. Not mad at all.
ReplyDeleteThat's an extra-cute photo of you, Poppy!
ReplyDeleteWe think that it was very sweet of your Mum to give that pigeon some bread.

ReplyDeleteLaura cat is living inside & she loves bread, she ripped open a pack yesterday while we were not looking. I hope Poppy you wouldn't do that.
