A surprise, just for me! 🐴
I’m afraid I’ve been a bit of a “pill” this morning. I made a pee-pee in Stormy’s stall:
I apologized to Stormy on the way out:
You know I’ve been complaining about my old, worn-out mask. . .
Well, what a pleasant surprise, that has cheered me right up!—a brand new mask!
It’s a special, “small horse” size, which goes snugly around my head. . .
And won’t irritate my nose by hanging too low over it:
Oh!—I forgot!—GOOD MORNING! 🐴
A cat’s eye is also a type of gemstone 😺
Good morning! It’s relatively cool again today. I don’t know why I’m in the shade; it must be force of habit:
My, but your eyes are pretty, Marbles:
Ferdinand is patiently waiting for Paschal to finish her bath:
Little gray kitty wonders why Buttons is drinking stagnant water (when there’s just-drawn water everywhere):
And a just-opened bag of bedding makes Martha a great nest:
“I can lay an egg while keeping a lookout!” 🐔
A wake up from Bart (🐓 video)!
Good morning! It’s actually cool this morning, only 63!
“It was so cool, we spent hardly any time in the stable in front of the fans.”
“You can tell, because there are no poopies to pick up.”
That’s right, Rose. . . . And get out of my feed dish, please, Onslow:
Speaking of dishes, don’t let Betty catch you eating out of hers, baby cat:
But now as I think of it, she’s pretty mellow old girl, and wouldn’t mind:
Anyway, let’s have a good morning crow from Bart:
Cock-a-doodle-doo! 🐓
It’s too hot, again! (and a 😺 and 🐔 video)
Good morning! I suppose I should get up and go to breakfast. If I don’t get up soon, the cat-cops might start to worry about me:
Do you have all that cool dirt under the manure cart to yourself, Frizzle?
“Of course not, Francis, I’m sharing it with the flock (more after video)!”
Finally, let’s have breakfast with the cats:
The baby cats are getting bigger! 😺
If you’ve got an itch. . . (video) 🐴
Good morning! I don’t know if I told you, but I have a fan all to myself!
There’s thunder in the distance; rain is on the way.
Finally, it looks like Stormy has an itchy tail:
You know what they say, “If you’ve got an itch—scratch it!” Don’t worry, Stormy, Management will check you out. 🐎
Stubborn + Spoiled = ME! 🐴 (and a 🐔 video)
Good morning! It’s actually a little cooler this morning, in the 70’s; however, I’m going to whine and cry until my breakfast is brought into the shade with me! Now, you well know I always whine and cry if I have to walk more than 10 feet to my dish...
And you well know I always win!
Little kitty watches Onslow inspect this morning’s cat water, fresh from the dehumidifier:
“Don’t worry, kiddo, I’ll make sure it’s put in a pan where you can reach it.” 😺
Finally, let’s watch the chickens come out of the big coop, and then the little coop. It was cool enough this morning that they could eat breakfast inside...
So the cats could eat their breakfast in peace:
Especially the little cats. 🐱
Lay your egg before it’s too hot 🐔
“Good morning! Time to lay my egg!”
Go to it, Frizzle! Good morning, everyone.
There’s not a cloud in the sky. . .
But there are some geese:
They’re probably flying north early because of the heat. 🐴
Soggy worms (video) 🐔!
Good morning! Our friend, Travis, is doing our hooves today:
It’s time for me to sneak out of the gate and graze until it’s my turn:
It’s hard standing on three legs. . .
But Travis does a good job of steadying us while he files our hooves nice and smooth (don’t fall asleep, Rosie):
Luckily we have two big fans blowing on us to help with the heat. 😿
Anyway, here are the chickens enjoying some of the ducks’ leftover mealworms:
If I were you, birds, I’d be wading in that fresh cold water! 🐴
Come-and-go cats 😿
Good morning, everyone! As you see, it’s another day of blazing sun. Other than that, don’t you think this is a flattering picture of me?:
Please get off Rose’s mask, Greg. Our just-washed masks should only be smelling “springtime fresh,” with no scent of cat:
That’s not a very lady-like pose, Betty:
And Mr. Marbles, where have you been the past three whole days? Don’t look so grumpy—not only did you worry the cat-cops, you showed up for breakfast late!
I see someone gave you more food:
If you ask me, this just spoils him. 🐴
The forecast: Hot and hotter! 😿 (and a 🐴 video)
“Good morning! The first thing we did when we were let out of the coops was run under the manure cart and hunker down in the dirt! I wish you were here, Francis:”
Thanks, Tom Turken. If only I could fit under there.
I woke up with an itchy neck. I know Ann will take care of it with a nice hard brushing, but I need a little relief NOW (more news after video):
Uh-oh, now, play nice, kittens:
“Good morning, everyone! Come and say Good morning, RC.”
“Good idea, Stormy. I haven’t said much, lately. Good morning, friends! Come and say Hello, too, Rose!”
“I’m on my way, RC. . .”
“Good morning! We love YOU!” ❤️
