Sir Charles update! Yes, he's still with us and going strong!! He is over TEN pounds now -- he came in a skelton, weighing only at four pounds-- and tho deaf and blind and somewhere around 20 years old, he is now as fat and sassy as can be. He loves nothing more than to cuddle and cuddle and cuddle... and eat 😁. He gets around our office like a champ, and lately he's been Grandpa Charles to the two grey kittens, grooming them and sharing his food!

We love you Charles, you old trooper!

Harley update! He's continuing to improve and eat better! We will be rechecking bloodwork next week. The bloodwork from this week indicated liver disease, BUT, that could have been a direct result of him not eating. So let's hope for better answers next week! ❤️❤️❤️

Harley update-- he is slowly coming back around, he started to eat better! This morning he finally ate some alfalfa with more verve. This was his face this morning while we were waiting for the vet... this all displeases him greatly, and he does not appreciate our constant fussing and bothering.

He did deign, however, to kiss me so I know he's on the right track. Keep up the good vibes!!! ❤️❤️❤️❤️

OK so look. I HAD to cut her forlock, I couldn't get the knots out. It was literally one big dread. I tried but Scarlett is not a people horse and she hated me messing with her and this was just easiest. So look, don't laugh.

Stop it!

I can hear you!!

Poor little Summer developed a hoof abscess this week. As if her little feet don't have enough issues! Luckily, it opened quickly and she is feeling better. That's my spiffy wrap, with a diaper and glitter vet wrap and duct tape. We go straight up fancy around here!! 😆

Flynn is keeping a close eye on her. Mr. Lover Lover 😁

Harley is feeling under the weather and could use all the good vibes. Someone tell him to stop worrying his mother. He's off feed and lethargic. He's under great vet care and hopefully he'll be back to his usual kissing self soon!! ❤️

I just thought this pic turned out so cool, with the reflection of the horses on my car!

Sometimes I close the gate at the top of the drive and let the horses out to graze. I had breakfast with my mom this morning and this was coming back home. ❤️

Flynn: Oh cool, this is where the kitchen is at this joint! Let me just get into a little bit of everything...Me: *Sigh*

Harley: Hello. I notice you drove your loud tractor right into our house. Was I not taking a nap?

Me: Oh, gosh. I'm sorry Harley. I just wanted to do some cleaning --

Harley: Indeed. During my most peaceful slumber. Is there not a better time?

Me: Well it's just that I work a lot and then have to take care of all of you and I can't always do things when it's convenient for you--

Harley: (Snorts) I must contact management... this is disgraceful... the help around here is abhorrent... (stalks off)

Should I remind him that I'm the management? And the help? And the indentured servant? And owner and HR??

Penelope and Eloise are still looking for homes! They are now about 8 weeks old, vaccinated, dewormed, and soon to be spayed. While I always love when siblings can get adopted together, these girls are both a little independent and could go separately. Located in Williamsburg, VA. Please share to help find their purrfect family(ies)!

Flynn update! He's also settled in really well here. He adores Juanita (the 30-ish year old pony who's literally old enough to be his grandmother 😆) but he was also super excited when Summer and Scarlett came! So he has his own little herd going. ❤️

I just had to get some pics of his cute little face! And a pic of him cutting his girls away from Lyric 😆

Here's the thing with Flynn. Because of the severity of his condition, there are certain emergency procedures that cannot be performed on him -- nasogastric tubing, to be exact. Which means that if he colics, he will not be able to be tubed. Or if he chokes, like he did a few weeks ago (and luckily cleared it almost immediately on his own). So life with Flynn will be a matter of knowing that one day, something may happen that a normal horse could be treated for, but it will mean something different for him. However, life is never easy! And it is never guaranteed. And every day is a gift with these animals, so we do all we can to give them the best life they can have and then know when to let them go with peace and dignity.

I want to say a word about a very special horse who is important to several people here, not just me. Scooby was the much beloved horse of a wonderful, loving lady who was robbed of the life she should have had by an awful disease. Scooby came here to live out his days.

This year, his health has taken some hits. We started him on treatment for Cushings. We struggled through the winter and spring with bouts of diarrhea, and tried all the things to try and correct it (he is on a forage based diet, gets psyllium, pre and pro biotics, Gut X, fat supplements). Bloodwork showed some anemia last month and along with his other symptoms we decided to treat for ulcers again. A month of Ulcergard (yes, I know there are many generics, but in this case we decided to go with the gold standard) (which costs as much as gold) and his appetite is showing some improvement. Ultrasounds of his intestines showed a bit of intestinal thickening and some free fluid but were not overall alarming.

He just continues to seem unthrifty. He has muscle loss most likely associated with the Cushings. He is thin and his coat is dull. I just wanted to let all his friends know that we are continuing to work to get him back to the fit and happy boy he should be, but he's got me a bit worried. I'll keep updating!!

Um... I was... I was going to sit down with my book... wait, I think I see some space! 😆

Update on Scarlett and Summer! They have settled in very well. Summer has had one hoof trim, and it helped quite a bit with her comfort. The key now will be regular trimming to hopefully get her to a good comfort level; she may always need nsaids on and off and of course her diet has to be carefully controlled. Right now, due to the drought and even with the bit of rain we have had, my pastures are still reduced enough that she can be out grazing with the herd.

Scarlett continues to despise us all and only tolerates me at feeding time. 😆 She would really benefit from a home or foster that has a lot of equine psychology knowledge and the time to work with her. She's going to be hard to adopt out, as she is prone to temper tantrums when anything is asked of her. It's not cute; even a small horse can hurt someone. This is why it is so, so vital to train ALL equines, no matter the size, in proper manners and behaviors around humans.

Fat & Happy Rescue really stepped up to help when we didn't know who to turn to for help with two cows. They are amazing and you all should love them too!! The animals win when we all work together.

Thank you Kim!!!!!!! 💜

This most wonderful non-danger noodle was making her way across the pasture this morning. What a beauty. Did not let the dogs touch her. She went all the way through the barn, out the other side of the pasture and off into the woods. Hoping to see her again!! ❤️❤️❤️

Flynn's freedom run!! Turned him out with the herd this morning 😍

Flynn when he first got here today. He is so little! But too big to be a mini. Look at that little prance!!

Ahhhhh this boy!!! Charles LOVES to go outside (only with supervision of course!!) and feel the sunshine and grass... he was most likely always an outdoor cat before he came to us. My girls at work Rachelle and Amanda take him out and sit with him on pretty days, and you can see how happy he is. ❤️❤️❤️ We love this old guy so much!!!!

Sparkle Pig lets it be known when dinner time is near! And I better put down that phone and start dishing it out if I know what's good for me!! 😆

Sigh.... 🤣

Well, I was going to introduce you all to two newbies to New Hope today, but I can't seem to get a word in edgewise!!! 🤣🤣🤣 More info to come!!

Harley -- ooof -- says to tell you -- ow -- good morning. 🤪🤪😆

But Sara... I just filled that... 🤣😍

Summer time and flies... Or lack thereof! One of the things we do here is we feed Simplifly from February thru October. I used to also use fly predators, but I never really saw a big help from them. My neighbor also uses Simplify, otherwise it wouldn't work. I feed Springtime Garlic to the horses during the same months, and the real benefit that I see from that is a huge reduction of flies on their bodies and heads. Their lower legs are still prone to getting flies, and so I do still fly spray them daily. I have used fly boots in the past (Shoo fly are the best in my opinion!) but this year haven't needed them so far. I have huge fans in the barn (with enclosed motors for safety). So they can go in and out as they chose to the comfort of the fans. So what are you all doing to keep the flies to minimum and your horses comfort to a maximum? Always looking for more options!! Also, nothing that I know of works against horseflies. But at least the small biting flies are being controlled.

It's been a while since I posted Eddie Lizzard! Eddie is a Schneider's Skink. He came to me about 17 years ago. And every single day since he came -- every. single. day. -- he has attempted to eat me 🤣🤣🤣 You gotta love his determination!! Here he was this morning getting some mealworms. He is shedding right now, so yes, there is some shed laying around him. He had just gotten out of a soak in his water; being a desert type fellah, he doesn't soak often. He is far past his natural expiration date but he's still going strong. He took a longer break from eating this past winter than normal, and had me worried, but once he decided spring was here he snapped back into it with gusto!! Love this guy. Glad he stayed so small, or I'd have been breakfast long ago. ❤️❤️❤️ #HopeIneverfallinhistank

This fool Scooby. He does this every day, multiple times a day. He thinks it's hilarious (apparently). What he does is, he gets as close to the gate (or the fence) as possible and starts teasing the dogs. He ENTICES them to charge at him full force, and then he kicks the gate or hits it if they back off. He also sticks his head over and swings it at them!!! Has he been bitten? Yes. Did that stop him? No. #DUFUS

Hey guys! I don't think I ever told you all about this kitten. Her name is Sashay, and she came from a really awful hoarding case. She was born with neurological issues, and one of her eyes never developed. Despite this, Sashay is a super happy, playful girl who can get anywhere she wants... it just takes her a while!! My hope had been to get her into a wonderful home, however, the one thing Sashay can't do is get herself in and out of the litter box. She uses pee pee pads in front of the box for the most part, but not always. So she has stayed with us at work and really just been such a joy to be around. She LOVES the other cats and she makes sure that they play with her on demand! One thing that has come up is that her underdeveloped eye has been getting recurring infections, and so it is time to have it removed. I'm hoping we can raise the funds for this! Can you give us a hand with this little cutie pie? 🥰🥰🥰

This. THIS is the kind of emotional blackmail that those darn folks over at RACC send me. I want you all to see just how that wicked Christie Peters person ropes me in... Just look at this. How can I resist??? How can I POSSIBLY resist those growls?? How can I say no to her catchy little song?? And her promise of carnage to come?? Sigh..... Stay tuned. Perhaps a little challenge is just what I need to help the ache of Murray's loss fade a bit. Somebody send me a new supply of first aid stuff, ok?

Dixie and pals playing this morning at feeding time 😍😍😍

YOU GUYS DIXIE ... IS PLAYING!!!!!! 😍😍😍😃😃😃
