How are ya? I've been away from the forum for the summer. Just started teaching up in Pineville, MO which means I'm not gallivanting all over the country anymore.

The wonderful plants you brought me are some alive and some dead, sorry. But, 2/19 during that last big snow we got, 5 kittens decided to be born in my garage where I was over wintering the fig, butterfly bush, hibiscus, and brugs. The Momma kitty died during her spaying a month later so I ended up hand raising 5 kitties. What a barrel of monkies!

At any rate, they ate just about everything in my garage except the brugs. Dead hibiscus, banana, butterfly bush as well as my philodendrums, poinsettias, ferns and such. Fig lost all leaves and some stems, but rallied when I got it away from them. I have a picture of the largest brug for ya. But, I don't know how to attach it to my message. How do I do that?

It put out leaves (they had to growback from the kittens chewing it). It hasn't bloomed, and the leaves are a little yellow. Anything you can suggest for it. The other 2 are the same.

I'm really disappointed at the others being eaten. Those durn kitties even ate roots on some of the plants. Killed all my peppers too.. Glad to say, 3 are now adopted out. Unfortunately, my sons each adopted one of the last 2. hehehe.

Later,
