The truth about Ladybugs in your garden life
❓ Q: I have Ladybugs in my garden, I wonder if they are eating my plants? Do I need to get rid of them?
🐞 Ladybug (Harmonia axyridis) is, in fact, one of the best insects you can find in your garden, it is a natural predator that takes care of many bad bugs, including aphids
🐞 Keep Ladybugs happy and bring them to your garden!
🐞 Ladybugs actually are cultivated as natural pest control, and you can even buy them for your yard, instead of chemicals!

Manx -
The Tailless Cats:
Timo and Matilda
Q: I saw your tailless cats. Why they don't have tails?
A: We decided to write a special story about
these special cats. They are rescues who came to us on January 31 this year. The
pictures in the article feature our adorable Manx siblings: Timo
(long-haired) and his sister Matilda (short-haired). They are very different in
personality and looks, but they have at least 2 things in common: lack of tail and
beautiful orange eyes. Timo is a big boy who likes to play with everybody.
Matilda is a shy miniature girl, but she likes to eat a lot... so she is a bit
chubby! She looks almost as big as her big-bone and fluffy brother.
Manx cats are a charming breed known for their lack of tails. Originating
from the Isle of Man, they have a rich history and delightful
personalities.
