Civet cats in the kitchen

We occasionally get visits from civet cats, (the local variety is the Asian Palm Civet, aka Paradoxurus hermaphroditus). Normally it comes by itself and eats some of the stuff we have in the bowl where we leave material for the compost bin, but one morning there were three little ones (kittens?) in a corner of the roof of the wet kitchen.

They stayed there for more than an hour. I suppose they had been parked in a corner by their mother. They didn't move from the corner and just looked curiously at us, looking back at them :)

(P.S. This is the first post in ages, as I have finally submitted my thesis!! Will try to post more regularly in future.)

I am interested in gardening and what a pleasant surprise when I stumbled into yours. New in blogging here, too. At the moment, I am crazy about planting asparagus.

Do you plant asparagus?

Gives me an idea that I should have a gardening blog in addition to the present one.

I just found your blog. I live in Malaysia and do a little bit of gardening, so am happy to learn from your experiences! I don't have much yard space, so am mostly planting in pots. I don't have any room for composting, but am looking into getting a worm box.
