Kicsi update and other news from the ridge......



Kicsi and her kittens appear to be doing just fine. I moved them into a
box that I had fixed up as a birthing box, and they stayed there. For
now, all seems to be well.

I am still feeding Tony from a bottle two times a day. I just go outside and yell to him that is it time to eat, and he comes trotting up to the gate. He eats vigorously and then wishes he could have more. He also appears to be doing well.

Scooter is continuing to be a very good companion. He seems to have gotten over
his "car phobia". Since Jake put him onto the seat of the golf cart
alongside me, Scooter has no fear of the moving vehicle. He loved
riding in the golf cart and has been good in the car so far. We haven't
gonetoooooo far, but all is well at short range.

The lambs are all growing so quickly. The triplets are quite friendly, especially Fluffer. I still have no idea what I will do with those four boys. Sugar has a home here since she is a ewe lamb.

We are still waiting to see if there will be any more calves this summer.
Two cows who had calves last year have not calved. It is just a waiting
game.

No more animal news. In house news, we have moved my shop
upstairs and turned the shop into our living room. It is wonderful. I
have never had a living room of that size. The former living room is
now the dining room. I feel like a real person now. My furniture looks
so beautiful where it is now. I have really missed having my house look
like this.

I have been somewhat busy with freezing strawberries that I bought at the produce auction. They are wonderful.

Hi,

And what about the new kittens' names?! And do not forget about mentioning those who named them...
