Schatzie's Puppies
When I reached the tender age of nineteen I experienced the miracle of birth for the first time. I suppose I could say that it was a beautiful and moving experience, but I’d only be telling half the truth.

Widget has Fun!
As you may remember, I have goats. The bucks and does were supposed to have separate pens, which they did at first--until my bucks started dying at an alarming rate. I suspected that they were being poisoned by something and, to my dismay, I was correct. Part of the thicket in which they enjoyed resting during the day was literally rife with sapling cherry trees. Goats can eat fresh cherry leaves and dried cherry leaves, but wilted ones will kill them in a couple of heartbeats.

My dog Minnie is the cutest yet quirkiest little dog I've met. Of course, I'm a little biased. She loves to spend her time outside in the backyard of my parents' house. When someone comes home, she runs to the door to greet them. And she loves receiving treats and pats like any other dog.

Living Your Third Life
You scared me a lot. I thought you were feral, an absolute danger to my health and wellbeing. As your sharpened claws scratched at toys thrown at you, and as you came back from outside with bloodied paws after a hunt, I was downright frightened.

Pets, they are great
The kids are grown, have families and pets of their own, and are making their own pet stories. The pets of childhood are a pleasant and distant cherished memory. The photo above is from Unsplash, by a lovely lady, named Krista Mangulsone whom I do not know, but admire her taste in photography.

My Guyanese Pup
Floyd. My little friend in the animal world. I loved him the moment I met him and still do wish I could have returned home with him by my side. But because of financial troubles my mum wasn’t able to get his shots or anything so we ended up leaving him in Guyana and it broke my heart that I gave affection to a street dog and two days in from me and my mom going back home he had strayed out from my grandmas yard and to my knowledge was then dead in the street.
