An older man in a green cardigan reaches for an apple on a branch while a calico cat sniffs fallen apples in the grass. 20 / 39

Otis Reached for the Best Apple on the Branch. Clementine Checked the Ground.

AI imagecalico catapple pickingorchard

Otis stands under the apple tree with one hand wrapped around a ripe red fruit, ready to twist it free, a happy glint in his eye behind his glasses. His green cardigan and plaid shirt fit the season perfectly. Around his boots, a wicker basket is already filling with apples, and more lie scattered in the leaves. Clementine is down in the grass with her nose almost touching a fallen one, her calico coat bright against the green, and her ears pricked as she takes in every smell. The orchard feels golden, warm, and busy with the small sounds of autumn.

Apples are fine for people but need a bit of care around cats. Most cats are meat eaters and will not care much for fruit, but the seeds, stems, and leaves contain compounds that are not good for pets, so it is wise to keep them out of her reach. Fallen apples can also attract wasps and bees, and fermenting fruit on the ground is not safe for animals, so it is best to pick up windfalls promptly. A cat exploring an orchard should be supervised, and a harness is helpful for keeping her away from roads and fences. If she eats something unusual or seems unwell, talk to your vet.

Otis twists the apple loose and adds it to the basket, and Clementine finishes her inspection of the ones at her feet. She does not take anything home, but she is happy to have been consulted.
