Several years ago I made this bird feeder.  The birds rarely went inside, but the squirrels did.  We took it down a couple of years ago to take down a tree and I never put it back up. 

Last week I cleared the part of the yard where it was and leaned it up against the fence standing straight up.  Yesterday I saw Gumbo sitting it and decided it would be the perfect place for it.  So I put it back in the ground right next to the fence so he could get in it.  Crazy Cat!  He was totally asleep right before I shot these pictures.

When you are separated from someone you love all you can remember are the good times you have shared.  These guys were apart for 16 days and I know Luther was very lonely.  He followed me all over the house and yard, rubbing up against my feet and toes.  This was a huge change before Gumbo left.   Today, Gumbo was reunited with his brother Luther and I think they are happy again.   When people separate things can get very complicated, but for cats, all is good.
