Cats and Tomatoes

Blandine Galbreath shared this cute photo of cats asleep in the tomato and pepper seedling trays. She wrote: "The cats are litter mates and TNR. Born feral and they are now part of the menagerie at Simon Seed in Leesburg, Florida."

"Sometimes snoozing in the shade of the tomatoes is the best thing to do on an extremely hot summer day."

Sarah O'Neil a garden blogger, and on Twitter @SarahtheGarden, shared these photos of Fennel, her cat. Sarah said, "She is just over a year old and apparently is half British Blue, half Bengal. She is a funny wee thing and loves the water! We take her out on our boat and we had to get her a life jacket, because she can get a little close to the edge. She also loves being in the garden and is never far from me when I'm out there. She does get a little possessive of the weeds and pounces on me when I attempt to pull them out. But all is all she is the perfect gardening companion in my garden here in New Zealand.
