Found Cat A cat was found in the Country Estates area of Bonny Doon.  It is beige and white with a touch of orange in the ears and tail.  It appears to be a young cat as an older one would not have survived it's two to three month ordeal.  It is medium size and really friendly.  Loves to be petted and held.  It is currently residing at the Scotts Valley Animal control office.

Gardeners September Meeting: Nancy Andreason and Lise Bixler gave an interesting and thought provoking presentation on how our creative style appears in the gardens we develop. It was the comparison of how two creative gardeners think about plants and their arrangement – a right or left-brain style. What contrasts there have been from the beginning until now. How they have responded when Nature did the unexpected. What gives them satisfaction in all stages of their garden's development. It stimulated our thinking about how our gardens relate to our creative style.
