Shameless imitation of Laurie’s cat photo. Well not really. This is a snapshot, not a photo. Bear has been with us for over half a year, after a hard life before he came to us. He’s comfortable enough with everyone that he submits to being dressed up, but I suspect not to happy about it. At least not yet.
He looks pretty good in an elves hat too.
Nothing like making eye contact with an owl. My grandfather once told me he saw a giant owl in Russia on a fence post one night. Apparently it was quite a spooky encounter.
One of our birds, Nemo, a quaker parrot. He’s a little brat (actually we found out he’s a ‘she’ after he layed an egg, but to me she’ll always be a he). He’s molting right now, and looks pretty ugly. Serves him right for being a biter.
Snakes are about as cold as it gets as far as pets are concerned. The only affection they have for people is the warmth of the human body, and will quickly abandon one person for another if the other is warmer. At least cats purr.
Trust me, this is one of the horses pampered by girl scouts all summer long at horse camp, so don’t mistake the look for sadness. It’s just bored.
