Notes from a parish cat and his author Julie Mackenzie
- Fr. Tom Fish
- I am Father Tom Fish, esteemed member of the religious team at Temptation of Christ Parish in the novels by author Julie Mackenzie. As to my background, I was invited into the rectory as a stray, laid on the charm, and was invited to stay, even honorarily ordained and no less spiritual than my sidekick Father Will. He dotes on me to high heaven and forgives all of my street cat proclivities, whatever the hell that means.

The Mighty Jungle
Does anybody have a tabletop lawnmower?
It's not easy living with greens up the purrtootie. Good intentions have turned into a mighty jungle. Give me a break! I can only eat so much grass!
I think I've been most appreciative. If you look closely, you'll see the jagged edges of my grazing. But, you know what? I came across a packet obviously with seeds left over which only means one thing: more grass later. Oh, gag me!!
I know who would love this grass--anybody have a goat..maybe a cow..or even a horsie???

table top lawn mower, MOL :-D
Have a great week-end Tom. You may have to hire some outside help... how about Mr. Bunny that lives behind the big rock near the bush.
BIG bonks
Father Tom, I'm heading over. I know I can help you with all that grass. YUM!!

I have rabbit sister. She might help!
Your pal, Pip
Hey, Marg has a goat! I hope you have a gag-free weekend pal!
And Marg has Donkeys! They eats grass!!! Enjoy your lawn mower duties this weekend.

Yup we have a goat and even better a couple of donkeys so send that grass right over here Tom. That is what happens when our Mom grows the grass too. Maybe some scissors are in order. Don't know of any other kind of table top lawnmower.
Hey. Do you think our rabbits and guinea pigs would like the grass?
every time I grow it my cats knock it around until all the dirt falls apart and there are grass bits everywhere. So I've stopped growing it :)
Hey, I think that looks like a mighty fine patch of grass! My three kittehs would be in grazing heaven and would have it mowed for you in no time, MOL.
Oh Tom my brother Ping would love to come over and chow down!

yummm, I'll come over and help you chomp pal. I don't have any cat grass at my house. It do look so good too.
We'll come over & eat it! There's never too much for us. We just eat it, yak it up then eat some more! And it gives the Mom something to do too.
Delicious grass! Does it taste better, the same or worse than the grass outside? :)
Ha ha ha it's quite a jungle!! Tabletop lawnmower, LOL!! One of my boys loves to mow cat grass. He prefers mowing to eating and therefore makes a lot of mess :-)
You need a garden for all that lovely grass.
Tom, you're a cat. Finicky is a given, maybe a requirement. If you don't want to eat the grass -- don't. You're beans will survive.
Although it might be safer to keep nibbling on it, just a little. Otherwise they might take it away entirely, and you probably wouldn't get it back.
I think your humans should buy a cow for you, it could help you and also fertilize your (church) yard !
