Maisie recently had a haircut and we took advantage of the lovely day (I think Spring is FINALLY here!) to take some photos. Our friend Pat gave the girls each lovely wool coats for Christmas, and Maisie looks especially adorable in hers!
How in the world did a SKUNK get in the house, you may be wondering.
Well it is a very long and strange story! :) Here is the short version.
The skunk, named Trixie, is not a wild skunk, but a domestic bred pet. She has been "de-scented", so no worries about getting sprayed!
She came to an exotic animal rescue, and was in need of a foster home. As you know, I am a major animal lover, and support various rescues however I can.
I had always thought skunks were such unique animals, so I applied to give her a temporary foster home, and we were approved and she just came home today!
Trixie is just adorable, and couldn't get along better with the dogs. They are all having a great time playing!
And the final photo below!
HAPPY APRIL FOOL'S DAY! ;)
It's Maisie, the skunk impersonator! Did I get'cha?
After having SNOW on Easter, it was lovely to get some sun today! I took advantage of the light to get some of my inventory items photographed. As you probably already know if you are on my newsletter, I unfortunately had to cancel attending a big bird show next month due to a flare up related to my health issues. It was a major disappointment, but I am swamped beyond what I can keep up with as it is with the custom orders from January's opening, so taking the stress of the show off of my mind really was for the best. I have a stash of creations that I had been holding back for the show to now offer for sale. I hope to get a couple of these items photographed every week, so do watch my eBay auctions and Etsy shop for some of these creations to show up shortly!
My shaggy dogs (Maisie at the top and Teddy at the bottom) enjoyed sunning on the porch and overseeing my photo shoot this afternoon. As you can see, my poor babies are quite overdue for haircuts! Anybody want to come over and do the job for me? :)
Hard to believe it is already Easter, especially since we had SNOW yesterday. I managed to get Killian & Kaleena to pose for a few photos, and am sharing them with you in the Smilebox card below. (Thanks so much to my dear friend Pat for turning me onto Smilebox, it is fun!) Well, Killian, Kaleena, and I (and the dogs too) all want to wish you a wonderful holiday and Happy Spring!
I recently got a new camera that also takes videos, so here is a little home movie showing Killian doing his favorite activity: running around (under close supervision) on the floor, exploring any and all nooks and crannies that he can find, along with his beloved doggies, who are thankfully completely trustworthy and "bird-safe"- they just have to be told not to lick him! He really loves the dogs and would spend all of his time as close as possible to them if I let him! Even when he is in his cage, he crawls down to the bottom to be on eye level and talk to them. :) I am really thankful that all of my pets get along so well.
