Renigade,
No, they are actually not that harmful to the garden, unlike their loathsome kissing cousins, the gophers. ;-)

And now it will thank you by eating your whole garden! ; - )

Jemmie,
It was no small feat, that's for sure!

Coming between a cat and its prey

Kudos to you!  Not for saving the mole, but for not getting maimed by your cats in the process.  I've tried keeping my three cats away from Narci (my lovebird) when she got loose, and let me tell ya, I came away with battle scars!

hmmm, let me see...okay...yeah, a bunch of people have! But this post was the whole truth and nothing but, even the mole-speak!

No Spitfire,
The headline wasn't "I killed a life yesterday"--so why'd ya think I'd do something like that??

Quirky,
anyone ever told you that you have a very vivid imagination?  As short as it was, I enjoyed reading this post, particular the 'moley speaks'.

Well, Quirky,
yeah! LOL!

Witchflower,
why thanks. Not everyone is versed in mole-speak...it's a learned art, hehe.

Symphony and Tanoo, thank you!
(Gotta love the way that sounds!).

Ca88,
Believe me, it was much harder to fight off the cats than it was to capture "their" mole.

Merry,
Why, cuz I might inadvertently squish one under my big foot??

loanlady,
that is EXACTLY what I told them--I said, "Now get yer butts outside and get yerself a gopher!" lol. I have a self-service pet window, a good idea gone wrong, hehe.

I especially love your mole-speak.  It added a lot.

I've never seen a mole. I think you are very brave fighting off the cats like that!

I'm sure there will be a
special spot for you in mole Heaven (but you had better watch your step there... :)

My cat would go and hunt something else down, she gets her feelings hurt when we don't appreciate the dead mice and things she proudly carries in. Now I check her mouth before she trots in the door.

Ariala,
well, your spelling works okay but I think it would be Holy Moley!

Goddess,
It better have or next time I'll let the cats have it! lol.

Mystic,
They were mad, but I gave them extra-large portions for dinner, so they have conveniently forgotten all about it.

posted by Julia. on March 7, 2005 at 10:56 AM | link to this | reply

Wasn't sure how to spell that?

Ariala,

Haha--I was actually going to use that in my title! Great minds....
