2 more ponies find a home


Its a beautiful sunny day today and the animals are really enjoying their time in the sun,There are cats sunning themselves all over the property and the horses are enjoying a lie down in the dry grass.I have just been checking my emails and as usual there are several from animal welfare organisations informing me of the latest atrocities against our sentient friends. One wonders when , if ever it will all stop and why human beings are capable of such evil.There is a great deal to be said for the Buddhist philosophy of living life without causing harm directly or indirectly to any other living being.If only a magic wand could be waved over the whole of society to render everyone incapable of a cruel word or deed!!!!!! If only!!
Back to reality- cats are coming in thick and fast, so many different reasons given, today we have a cat brought in because the owner cant get rid of the fleas, I could have given advice but with a new baby in the house, it was obvious the cat was not a priority anymore so its better to find him a new home.2 other cats arrive due to their owner moving house and a farmer has rung asking if he can bring in 7 kittens.I am pleased when he asks me about neutering the three adult females on the farm! I am more than pleased to be able to offer him help to do so and wish more of the farming community would show the same kind of responsibility.
By the way old Monty Collie appears to have a new lease of life now his tablets have been increased, he and Tara even managed a short walk with me this morning.
Today part of the new fencing has gone up in what is going to be the new pig paddock and it should be finished tomorrow so we may be able to move the pigs very soon.
Sam and Murphy, two of the shetland ponies are going to their new home on Monday, their new carer is now our new Sunday volunteer and we know they will be spoiled by her, Sam is very shy and Murphy is a very odd looking little chap, at one point we wondered if he could be crossed with a donkey, they are both sweet little ponies and we will miss them.

I have tried a lot of different programs and
found "Family Funds" to be one of the best,
They care about your success, It's easy to do
and I make about $50.00 dollars a day but it's
been growing monthly so the extra $1500 dollars
a month has been helpful, give it a try.
