Awaiting the Great Pumpkin

Lisa Steele, author of Gardening with Chickens, in Dixmont, ME, USA, shared these photos of her tuxedo cat:

"We rescued Linus from the local shelter when he was a kitten and he's about 12 years old now. We originally got him as a 'barn cat,' but somehow he has managed to have full access to the house too! He loves being outside though, especially in the nice weather. He's partial to sunbathing, but is a good mouser, keeping rodents out of the chicken coop and barn. "
