We took in another rescue kitten here! This adorable little kitten was found in Baxter near Memorywood Dr. No owners were found and Babinski was full so a friend asked if I could help. Of course I said sure! I am estimating her to be 8-10 weeks old so likely born around the end of June. I have her first vet appointment scheduled for next week. She will be available to go to a new forever home once I get her spayed! Check out my website for more pictures and information! Please consider sharing to help get the word out and find her a great forever home!

After seeing a Facebook post about a pregnant cat in need we decided to take her in. I have lots of experience with pregnancy, labor, delivery and newborn kitten care, so I wanted to help this sweet mama have a safe and comfortable place to deliver and raise her babies. We took her into our vet right away to have her checked over. She is clear of FIV, FeLV, HW and is generally healthy. A f***l sample revealed the presence of hookworms so we treated her for that right away! She is one of the sweets cats I've meet and she loves to be pet and lots attention! We have been loving and spoiling her lots here! We have her all set up in her own quite place in our laundry room. We will be putting her and her kittens up for adoption when they are ready for new homes - likely at the beginning of November. Just like our Bengals we plan to have these kittens and the mom see our vet twice for vaccinations and deworming and be spayed and neutered prior to going to new homes! Stay tuned for updates on our sweet Rescue Cat and the birth of her kittens! It will be any day now!

I found the most adorable little mouse while doing some garden clean up this weekend! It even let me hold it - probably cause I was warm! I wanted to keep it but knew that wasn't a good idea! Ha! I let it go and hope it finds a warm spot for the winter. Even if they aren't garden friendly, I can't help myself - I love all little creatures! This one was so cute! 😍

What a fun weekend we had! We did dog sitting for one of our puppies and we had a blast we him! This is Frank from Cody and Goldie's litter last July! This was actually the second time we have taken care of him! We love having our puppies back at this stage of life too. It's fun looking at him and seeing the various traits that he got from both Cody and Goldie! The kids absolutely adored having him around too!
If you have bought a puppy from us and need dog sitting let us know! We are happy to have them! We make a great alternative to a boarding facility! With us the get to be back with their parents and free to run around our yard and house! At night they can sleep in a kennel or with one of our kids! Our son opted to sleep on the couch with Frank for fun! Because we are not a kennel and keep them in our home we only do this for our customers that have bought a puppy from us and can only take one at a time. If you are in need of dog sitting keep us in mind and reach out for availability!

We got one tiny pear from our tree this year! Not a great year, but it was still exciting to see the first ever piece of fruit in our little orchard!

We found a cute little baby turtle on the driveway and brought it back to the lake before the chickens and ducks noticed and had him as a snack.

The moment of sheer panic when you see red all over the head of your white Pekin duck and wonder what in the world happened all sacred. Then you remembered the watermelon that was cut in half, and they dug their heads into in total delight and breathe a deep sigh of relief.....😳🤣🤯

Personally, Memes are one of my favorite things about social media! I love popping onto my newsfeed and seeing something that makes me laugh or smile! I have saved an extensive amount of memes over the years because I know not everyone loves memes like I do so I try to restrain myself from oversharing them. I decided come up with a way to share the laughter in a limited way - Introducing Meme Monday! Mondays are notoriously not fun so I thought that would be a good day to try to brighten the mood! I’ll share some of the memes I love and would love if you share memes you love with me in the comments! Also feel free to share any or all of these! Happy Monday! I hope these at least gave you a little chuckle!

Saxony Duck in the Bath! #facebookreelschallenge

Who's in the Bathtub? Peek a Boo!

The kids wanted to bring a couple of our baby chicks down to the lake with us. It was fun to let them explore a new area. Their little chirps are so adorable!

We always really enjoy watching storms and cool clouds coming in! We were only on the edge of this storm so we didn't get any rain, but the clouds were very impressive and we got to see a little bit of lightning and hear some thunder! Sound up for all the birds singing in the video!

Our new Sebright Rooster has the most adorable little crow! I love it! 😂 ❤

It is such a fun experience to have chickens hatching in the incubator! The little chirps are just precious!

Are you my mommy? Our Bengal kittens were curious and investigating our newly hatched Rhode Island Red Chicken. Because the baby chick was hatched in an incubator it was looking for a warm, fluffy mommy!

We watched a very impressive Shelf Cloud storm front move in last night! It was hard to take my eyes off of it! It starts with the calm before the storm - you can still hear all the nature sounds. Then it quickly rolls through with strong wind gusts and a downpour of rain. A few minutes after that we lost our power. We even saw two cloud to ground lighting strikes from this! We enjoyed watching this a lot!

I felt so incredibly fortunate to be able to see and hear these birds on the lake today! I was able to sit on the beach and enjoy this Trumpeter Swan Concerto for quite awhile! It was incredible! Sound up for your listening pleasure! The geese make a few sounds and you can hear other bird songs in the background!

Bengals in Love! Coco is so good to the mother of his kittens! 😍🥰

Caption this Bengal kitten! 😂

Spring chicken! Fred hatched her first baby of the year! It's so cute! I'm so excited for the rest of them to hatch! It's a blast having baby chicks running around our little hobby farm! (Yes we have a hen named Fred. We named her before we new her gender and just rolled with it because it fits her anyway. 😉)

Fred has gone Broody again! In less than 3 weeks we'll have baby chicks running around again! I'm so excited! 😁

The Spring melt has begun! The ducks were so excited to play in the water for the first time this year!

I was getting ready to head out the door and I find most of the flock hanging out at the front door! Not sure if they were just looking for their usual afternoon snack or wanted to come in! They are always coming up with new ways to amuse me! I love these chickens and ducks! 🤣❤
