Something all you country folks can relate too…Andrew found a skunk last night, so did Parker his side-kick. Being short has its advantages, for when Andrew Dane got “hit” full on the chest, little dude only got winged in the ear. We let them out for a before bed romp and they come back smelling like burnt tires. The newly… Read more →
The weather finally broke, we are in the low 90’s today. It was long past time to release our orphan squirrels, only waiting on that weather.Off went the 3 strongest, most dominant, best jumpers, and climbers. Weeee! Fly Be Free, Happy Squirrels! Nona Her Mate, Slunk on top of their house. That is WAY up in the tree, Slunk… Read more →
Some days are harder than others. After an intense week, Jonah left us today soon after Dove. Some might say this is what happens when you mess with the natural order of things. True. Some might say, all we did was delay the inevitable. True again. Some might say, why bother? I disagree. I say, bunnies are hard to keep… Read more →
“Dude!” we say, when Jonah’s head pops up out of his cup. He has only been with us 2 full days and already his coat has thickened, wounds knitting and body looking more rabbitity. I guess we have decided he is both a male and worthy of the “Dude” moniker. Jonah Lebowski. Actually his whole body has been popping out… Read more →

Then in the wee hours, third watch is my turn. Jonah is so active and adorable! New Linens. New Fur coming in. Wounds healing nicely. Attitude also coming… Read more →

When I got to the gully area where our Dear Annika Squirrel lives with her bruiser boyfriend, Red Charlie ( he is very red like a fox) or Chuck I stopped short…there they were. We have been trying to get a… Read more →
Well I think they are pretty cute, obviously. To everything there is a season. Lately its been the time for Spiders and Snakes. A few days back I happened upon a baby Texas Rat Snake ( non-venomous) in the road. Its been cold and wet here but now its warming up. Snake time. The warm pavement is a great place… Read more →
Good Morning Happy Wildlife Lovers! Following the prompt “Place” from Junelle and Christy’s Art of Wild Abandonment workshop I hammered out some little rough sketches. I am getting better at scribbling a sketch like a quick note. I wish I were disciplined enough to sketch everyday like this it really pours out ideas on paper. Often times in digital scrapbooking… Read more →
Pictures by Dillon Cates We’ve got grass to munch, a fence for safety and all our dogs are in at night, paradise for rabbits. Except for the cats, not sure which one in all the commotion brought this baby jackrabbit in. She could have been chased in. Gracie Dane needs the door open a LONG time to get in and… Read more →
http://life.time.com/curiosities/a-squirrels-guide-to-fashion/#1 Thank you Rosie for sending this! I was both giggly enchanted and slightly standoff-ish due to the creep factor. I am still wondering why Tommy The Squirrel dressed in ladies clothes? What made Mrs. Bullis think dresses were the thing? Did she only have mad dress making skills? …were trousers a work of mystery? Either way… Read more →
