What the tube cat saw, or, 

How many goslings had there really been to begin with? A Tube Cat Tale, or, 

Canada Geese Take Over Ravine Cats’ Shipyard, All Remediation Fails!, or, 

What are the cats doing to that guy? 

 

I was on my way to lunch today, still wondering whats become of the many cats that live under the truckbed behind the x and y and z, (behind just about everything up there), and seeing how these cats many human friends have gone to yet further proective measure on their behalf, with ever more reinforced shelter behind the suspended truckbed, when again, no cats, and, the Canada Goose I daydreamed my way right into last week is there instead 

goslings and momI circled round the other way to suss out the situation whole. Surely the cats are busy plotting somewhere, how can they raise their own young with these nerve-wracking giant birds living in the shipyard with them. The geese of course, to support my friend Michael Tweed’s concerns, also’d have every reason to trouble over the presence of a bunch of cats living right where they try to advance their gosling charges.

I suppose it’s all vividly a matter of of your point of view. As the son of a birdwatcher I suppose perhaps there were times when affiliation with cats might have seemed thoughtless. Every cat I ever had killed birds. But I just don’t see how a person can try to make eating life not crisscross thousands of ways. It all starts with eating specs, the process of digestion being possible, at the start of evolution. Once on land lizards et al ate vegetables mostly. Etcetra Etcetra, until you could go into any Korean restaurant and consume the most splendidly whole range of possible food, presented quickly and beautifully, with steam rising therefrom that is like an airborne broth! But this isn’t to distract us with our appetites as we look into this desperate setting for crime!

the one of the gosling lying on the road between the cars, insouciant, leg extended comfortably… Are we all that oblivious to danger? Or are those cars junked, so no danger?

John, what exactly is the location of this particular feral cat group? How many do you think there are in Toronto. Would it be good if vets descended stealthily, spayed and then gently put the cats back in their ravine? Do you think there are others beside you looking after this particular bunch? I am cautious due to what seems to be happening to the feral cat population at the Scarborough Bluffs. June 22, rose p.s. great and telling pics.
