    I think it is a Felinus Somnolens

    But I'm sure some of you will have better answers. :dbgrtmb:

      Looks like Cucurbita pumkitus, with a severe infection of Botrysis

      Spay with Bordeaux Mixture, recommended

      It could be some sort of catkin?

      Looks like it's ready to be potted on Shiney :)

          Definitely not a Catcus as it's never been known to swear.

          It`s a greater spotted Catnap.:thumb:
          Which is looking very Catatonic.
