When things get really dry on Barbados, all living creatures have to extend their search for water. What that means for us is that things come close to and into the house.
When our cats are outside on the deck, we put out a bowl of water for them, and everything comes to share - lizards, moths, ants and even monkeys.
It’s nice to think that we are helping them in times of drought, but we don’t put water out just for them - don’t want to encourage that, especially with the monkeys. They are very cute, but they are also very smart and inquisitive wild animals and show way too much interest in us and our cats.
Hopefully the rains will be along soon and there will be plenty of water and food for all.
