I <3 my animals

Yeah I’m an animal lover=) I’m never happier than when I’m feeding all my animals…I snapped these one evening last week and thought you would all like to see my animals.

I’m in love with my chickens…

This is Nicole, she’s a Rhode Island Red (after Nicole Kidman) naming a chicken after a celebrity…it seriously couldn’t have gotten any worse. Nicole is the nicest chicken ever, loves to be held and is very vocal.IMG_4642-001

Miranda, a Silver-Laced Wyandotte (after Miranda Lambert) I hope she never find’s out=) Miranda is skittish and doesn’t like too much attention, just wants to live life as a chicken. When it’s time to go back in their pin for the night, she’s always a pain to catch. IMG_4644-001

And this is Connie, just plain Connie, not named after anyone. Poor Girl. (she’s an Araucana, better know as the Easter Egg chicken because they lay colored eggs, Connie lays blue eggs) She pretty bossy about every detail in life and roles the chicken house.IMG_4650-001

My cat!

Merry! I love her so much, the perfect cat always. Never to pushy, doesn’t get in your business, only wants her food and water full. I had to beg her to even sleep on my bed when we first got her. And then for the most part she would only sleep there during the day. A very independent cat to say the least. And would rather be outside than in the house any day. Good thing because since we moved she’s been strictly an outdoor cat.IMG_4669-001

Duke such a good ol’dog. He’s at least 13 years old….pretty much completely deaf now, very hard for us to get used to. It happened really fast too. One day he could hear fine and what seemed like overnight he can’t hear anything. (he’s the family dog, not mine, but I couldn’t help but add this one of him) Love his beautiful eyes.IMG_4679-001

So that’s my animals=) What kind of animals do you all have?

  3. Jinx, a wire-haired fox terrier. Named after Halle Berry's part in the Bond movie. She's 10. Check out "The Thin Man" movie from the 30s if you want a great detective comedy with a fox terrier in action!
