Make the world a better place...one animal at a time
The Peace of Wild Things
BY WENDELL BERRY
When despair for the world grows in me
and I wake in the night at the least sound
in fear of what my life and my children’s lives may be,
I go and lie down where the wood drake
rests in his beauty on the water, and the great heron feeds.
I come into the peace of wild things
who do not tax their lives with forethought
of grief. I come into the presence of still water.
And I feel above me the day-blind stars
waiting with their light. For a time
I rest in the grace of the world, and am free.

Lol, I'm not kidding, the rats are literally making new openings as fast as I've gone around the perimeter plugging holes!! It's a much bigger house repair project we need to do...
Darn it!! I forgot to video the holes the rats tunneled in the front yard, before I sealed them with that spray foam. Those boogers made some crazy holes that tunneled in!! I saw them run across the front yard and dive in!! Very smart, and very determined to stay here...where there's an endless supply of treats...

Yes Vicki I believe you're fighting a losing battle with those rats...they really are highly intelligent...and adaptable I honestly have no idea what I'd do
But on a brighter note here's some pics of F. Biscuit snuggling and fighting to stay awake....and at the end she gave me a kiss probably to stop me from kissing her
Here's a short video of her during the same time, and if you cut the volume up, you can hear her doing that clicking sound I was talking about on Tumbleweed's thread. She had eaten about 36 mL's of FV an hour before https://youtu.be/wljebLALcYw
Also a short video of her disliking snow https://youtu.be/5RWBD0syauQh

It's so good to be home....and to have so many happy to see you back Fluffy Biscuit is still very sweet....and at about 19 weeks....still taking formula twice a day I was talking about how big and healthy she is at the Gathering....so I decided to weigh her tonight...before her formula....she weighed in at a whopping 590 grams I'm not sure....but that seems pretty big for that age here's a few pics of her...sitting on my shoulder, playing on the flyer cage...and after some hand play...pancaking out for a rest
