Our Farm

[ahavah]

I've been neglecting this blog. I'm going to try to work on that. I've been sharing most of our pictures and updates on facebook, so a lot of you have probably seen these already. I'm long overdue for a picture post about our new place though, so I thought I would share

Thank you so much! We're all very happy. I can't wait until it's warmer and we can actually start the farming part.

I was pretty disgusted by Biscuit's "owner" as well. I didn't realize he was starving her at first. She had a scavenged turkey leg the first time we saw her, when we test drove the car, and she was scared and ran off with it (obviously feeling like she needed to guard it!). We went to pick her up several days later (almost a week, I'd say), and when Josh went to get her from their back yard, he said that there were no food or water bowls whatsoever. And there were also several cats whom the guy called "strays" that adopted him. Poor Biscuit got car sick on the ride home, and she threw up the turkey we'd seen her with days earlier. She'd had no other food since then. :( I just can't fathom how someone could do that to an animal. We've been feeding her well and giving her table scraps to help get her more nutrients. Poor thing. She's doing so much better, IMO, and she absolutely loves us to death. I think she's grateful to be out of there.

We're still not completely unpacked and we've been here 5 years.

That's extremely reassuring! lol I made a deal with Josh after we cleaned out our "junk room" at the old house. Any boxes that we haven't looked in for a year can be tossed, since we obviously don't need what's in them.

Is there an spca you could call out there to go rescue the poor kitties?

I thought about that. But Josh says that the cats look healthy. They're not stuck in the yard, so they're getting food and water elsewhere.
