Animals and pictures

I promised you pictures, but I didn't see a point in posting them on my blog, when they are also on my mother's blog. Our Little Homestead: Our little city homestead has moved to the country. Also I gave my talk yesterday along with my dad. Being the center of attention is not something I enjoy.

Here's an update on the animals, last night Adam brought some comfrey over to put on Chet’s nose. After we washed his face again he didn't seem to mind it. This morning my dad washed it again and put more liquid Band-Aid, this time though, he tried to put it in a small container to put it on, rather than spraying on his nose. Chet still hates it. It doesn't look as bad yesterday, but it still looks gross. Today I believe we are taking him to the vet to see what's wrong. I'll post an update on how it goes. Even though he has a cone on, he is still our happy Chet. I am able to post pictures of his nose but it's rather gross. If you would like me to can, but you'll have to comment so I know.

Yesterday while my dad cleaned the rabbit cage, we let Flynn out in a fenced area to be outside. She didn't really know what to do. This was her second time outside in the Vernon house. In the old house she was able to play in the entire backyard, however, here our backyard is 5 acres and if we let her loose we might never see her again.


We've been walking India around to let her eat some of the unwanted grass or weeds we have. The neighbors have horses as well, and when India is out of her field she likes talk to them as she walks by. Yesterday I had her out for about an hour and when she went back into her field the other horses got out to graze and she had a fit. She was running her fence neighing at them and trying to get them to look at her. Yesterday we had her out to eat the grass in the garden.

My family got back from Wyoming yesterday, and brought back Button. She is the new hunter. We have her mainly for mice and the pocket gophers we have. At the moment she won't go outside. Even though this is the first time she has been in a house in her life. 


She really likes my brother, and will only nap, if you are in his room with her. You don't have to be on the bed or next to her, just in the room. 

Martina will update you on the trip to Wyoming. Have a great day!
