Good morning, Humans. I hereby proclaim the commencent of spring as I have awoken from my winter slumber.
Now get to work, Humans! I have many spring projects in mind to improve my Turtledom.
–Princess Maple Ann
Reserving judgment
You are changing my stream, Humans.
I am reserving judgment.
For now.

Garden Helper
Whatcha doing, Human Daddy?
Ooh, I see! You’re digging a hole!
Please let me help. I don’t mind getting my paws dirty.
–Xena
Reserving Judgment
New landscaping project, Humans?
I’ll reserve judgment.
For now.

Adirondack Chair
What a great purchase, Humans! I love my new Adirondack chair.
No, you may not sit on it, Human Mommy.
It is large but obviously not large enough to accommodate the both of us.
–Darth Vader
Turtledom
Turtledom before:
Turtledom in progress:
Did you have to uproot so many hostas, Humans?
This used to make for a nice hunting blind…er…bird watching spot.
Turtledom after:
I appreciate the juxtaposition of the rocks and the diggable substrate.
The vegetation is quite nice and, if I understand correctly, edible.
My private pool, though, needs a cleaning and the proffered lettuce is not up to my standards.
3.5 stars, at best.
–Finnegan and Princess Turtle
P.S. We servants…er…Humans covered Turtledom with a strong plastic mesh to prevent any unwanted incursions into the Princess’s territory. Human Daddy is hard at work on a latching chicken wire top.
Great Landscaping Projects
Whatcha doing, Human Daddy?
Can’t you tell, Woofies? Human Daddy is creating a garden stream to quench my Feline thirst.

Landscaping
After a long afternoon of supervising your Humans landscaping, feel free to flop down on the sunbaked mulch for a well-deserved nap.
Supervision is exhausting.

Rock Garden
Should your Humans install a rock garden, make sure that the rocks they choose correspond with your fur.
–Quicksilver
Yard Work
Have your Humans abandoned the yard work halfway through? Initiate your eye lazers.
Cats disapprove of an unkempt garden.
