A great way to build posts is to request photos! Post photos of your pets here. This is my current favorite photo of Magic. He's so adorable! He's a 21 year old Arab and I've had him 19 years. He is my sunshine!

This is Ursala. I got her from the no kill shelter the day after Christmas. We always had a cat when I was growing up, but she's the first cat I've had as a grown up. Black kittehs are the best!

Usually, I try to always have three piggies. A neutered male and two girls. But I just lost one on monday. *sigh*

This is Pepper. And even though we tried everything, cortisone, antibiotics, inhalation, she died of pneumonia monday night...

What got me into guinea pigs?! Well, it seems like I pretty much always had them. One dies, you get another to keep the others company. That circle just goes on and on...

I am so sorry AmityBee. Piggies are so fragile.

Our first piggies (the neopolitan ambassador pictured above) and Belladonna started a long line. Like horses, they are not solo creatures. We've always had pairs, and had 3 for a few years. They're our snuggly, cuddly cat replacement -- two cat people, with one who is terribly allergic to them.

The coolest barn cat, Bronco. He just showed up at the farm one day and we kept him.

Gallie, my old girl. Bought her at 3 months, started and trained her and raised 2 foals out of her. Dam of my big guy Rip and his sister Gaila.

Roger, another road find, picked up at only 9 weeks old. He is my shadow.
https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid ... =3&theater

Leo, another road find. Not quite 2. I really need to rehome him. He loves dogs, not so sure about cats (he runs away from them). Sweet easy going guy.
https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid ... =3&theater


I have one other horse, Gaila that for some reason I don't have picture of. Rip's full sister and one other barn dog Hank who was also a road find. Hank is a hound/lab mix that I tried to rehome, but he will not be contained. Can flat foot jump a 4 ft fence. So he came back to be our farm dog, sweetest dog ever who thinks he is a lap dog but weighs 60 lbs. I have a total of 5 horses, 4 personal dogs, 2 foster dogs and 2 cats. We own our own farm thankfully!

Well, the rabbits I kinda just stumbled on. I went to a small animal swap with a friend of mine where I saw the cutest bunny ever and had to have him. It snowballed from there. Lately I've thought a lot about getting out of them though, to focus more on Phoenix and direct my money one direction.

Some of this years Arapawa lambs from Flock 1 & 2, there are some missing from this lot as their mums were accidentally included in with Flocks 3 & 4 then I got a bit of a surprise when the lambs arrived! :lol: Flock 3 is due in a few weeks to a Pitt Island ram, Flock 4 may produce a few surprises as these are last years hoggets which BountyBar may have helped himself to while I was short of paddocks.

Nearly 50:50 ewes to rams again this year and 9 sets of twins so far, there were a few of the previous years hoggets lambing this time, so these are always a bit risky in the outcome because they are young and inexperienced, we had 2 stillborn ram lambs - both of which were huge, one was a twin and was twice the size of his sister!

yes I got bitten by the bug a year ago when trying to find something to do with my fibre.

I now have 4 wheels [Majacraft Aura, Peacock, Beulah & Ashford Traditional] and about 20 drop and supported spindles, and 7 looms... :lol:

I spend a lot of evenings spinning etc, gives me something to do while I'm not doing horsey stuff.

Favourite fibres to spin are Arapawa [of course], Merino and silk. And mixes of those!
