Prickles on parade

It seems I am not the only one who is seasonally confused. Ms Tiggywinkle put in another appearance today, during daylight. She and Otto have something in common; both seem to be very short sighted. Mercifully for the hedgehog, Otto is too slow (low slung sardine pouch) to catch her, and she most likely sees a large black and white blob on the horizon. So far so good. However, our naughty tortie can smell meat on the move at 500 paces. Sadly this version comes with several hundred built in tooth picks.
She also has a nose which senses liver / beef / and probably gamey hedgehog from under her blanket on the sofa.

I have covered up the wee creature with leaves, in the hope that will throw Cookie off the scent. She wouldn’t be seen dead nosing through vegetables!
