fish protecting gnome

The big gnome watches over my dads pond. The mask on the bag of his head is to scare cats, apparently. So they don't get at the fish. Theres a bit of net over it as well to protect them but the gnome is a back up. My dad says it's only scared my brother so far. No cats.

But then cats won't have the same fears as us. Scary faces probably have as much impact as any other face. So he'd have to find something a cat was actually scared of.
