Donkeys love to play. When Ichabod (the Mammoth Donkey) was growing up, he had other youngsters to play with. He arrived here and expected Burrito to play with him, but Burrito was not interested… at least not at first. Ichabod continued to invite Burrito to play and eventually he gave in. Burrito still never initiatesContinue reading “Donkey Games”

My Wild Backyard
We have a wild backyard! I wish I had a photo of everyone who has stopped by, but some pass through so quickly we never get a chance to snap the photo. Some of the more interesting visitors I have seen but not yet photographed are; coyotes, moose, bobcats, and blue heron. We also haveContinue reading “My Wild Backyard”
How Henry Came to Be “Ours”
Our animal friend’s come to us in so many different ways don’t they? For me, I have inherited a cat, been given a horse, selected animals from shelters, purchased a riding donkey, had a cat walk in as a stray and so on… A few months ago we were ready to get a new catContinue reading “How Henry Came to Be “Ours””

After the first few days, he started settling in and I decided to give him a tour. I walked him on lead around the 7-9 acre pasture. He lookedContinue reading “Ichabod Gets Lost”
Walking to the Bus Stop
My daughter started kindergarten this year and we have come up with a very fun way of getting to the bus stop. The spot where we meet the bus is a 1/4 mile away but we don’t have to go on any roads. We can walk through our horse pasture, duck under the fence, andContinue reading “Walking to the Bus Stop”
Childhood Friendships
My best friend growing up was my cat. His name was Vidal and he was my older “brother”. He put me to bed every night, then after I fell asleep, my mom said he would head out hunting. Me and Vidal about one year before he passed away (when I was 12). I am thrilledContinue reading “Childhood Friendships”
Understand your animal’s thoughts; learn how they are feeling, what they need, and who they really are.
A phone consultation with me is an opportunity to communicate directly with your animal companions by way of telepathy. You can get questions answered about their viewpoints on environment, behaviors, food, health, and how they think. A consultation is an opportunity for you and your animal to better understand each other, creating a deeper bondContinue reading “Understand your animal’s thoughts; learn how they are feeling, what they need, and who they really are.”
