Pets

We have a few pets! And as the children are getting older they are able to be come more involved with the actual care of them. As a child I grew up dogs and cats and stayed a lot with my grandparents who were farmers. And while we cant yet realise the dream of properly living in the country with land and animals to become self sufficient they learn the importance of animal care and responsibility.

Dogs need walking and feeding, poo needs cleaning up!

Chooks need feeding, cleaning out, raking over and health checked.

Cats need feeding.

And they all need to be wormed. deflea'd or pest controlled in some way or other!

But on the plus side they do love us! And feed us too (although not in this weather) and the children get to see all side of life and death.

For us having pets is a really positive thing, we love em!

P.S. Please can I have Aplacas for christmas, please, please!
