Senior kitties - Olive & Martini

Meet Olive and Martini, our senior kitties of the month!

They like warm blankets, sitting on the screened in porch in the summer, and wet food treats,

They dislike the cold, getting their hair cut, and when their brothers bother them.

Olive fondly remembers her days as an escape artist sneaking out of the house at every opportunity, and Martini was quite the escape artist inside the house- she would sneak into the unfinished basement ceiling!

Nowadays they’re both content lounging around inside in the sunshine where it’s safe and warm.

Puppy of the month - Tdolaah

What Tdolaah likes best is playing with her big brother Django and running through the woods including when responding to "come" game.

Tdolaah does not like be left alone.

Tdolaah wants to be just like her big brother when she grows up - very obedient and a strong swimmer

Exotic Pet - Surfer

He is a 3-year old Abyssinian pig who I adopted, along with his brother, The Dude, as companions for my black and white American pig, Raymond. His friend Boris had passed away and he was a lonely pig. The boys were about 3 months old when I adopted them, so Ray is still "boss hog." The 3 get along pretty well, and also socialize with my rabbits, birds and dogs.

We moved from Petaluma, California, to Minneapolis a year ago. The pigs handled the move well, and they love being outside in their backyard corral during the day. Surfer is a handsome fellow and is the largest of the 3 pigs, but also the most shy. He enjoys eating, of course, especially tender herbs and other greens. He can also be found relaxing in the pigs' hammock, or snoozing in his "pigloo." When held, he is very affectionate-- an excellent piggie pet!
