Oldest and Youngest

It would be hard to know who is the oldest Sanctuary House resident . . . maybe Anastasia the orange kitty, or Buddy or Chrissi the beagles. Buddy and Anastasia have lived at Sanctuary House for many, many years. Chrissi came a few years ago, when her person went into a nursing home. All three of our very senior members sleep most of the day, but when it's time for treats or dinner they are wide awake!



 

The youngest members of Sanctuary House are not so difficult to know. At first beagle Thea was the youngest . . . but she was soon displaced by others: kitten Louie; Chincoteague pony Willow Bay; and then the little flock of ducks and chickens. And now there is another youngest: Possum . . . but Possum is not an opossum as you might imagine from his name. Want to discover who Possum is? . . . just work the puzzle!   Possum

Wish List Wednesday

Yes, here we are to Wednesday again, the best day for wishes, so Sister Mary asked me to write about our  Wish List . Canned cat food is right at the top of things we really need this week, and then paper towels, and horse treats (horse treats are not really a NEED, but the horses think they are, and we like to keep them happy!). Thank you for thinking of us. Love, Gus PS Sister Mary did not give me a puzzle for this message . . . please let us know if you want to have puzzles in the blog - I think they are a fun break to my reading and writing and sleeping and eating and playing, but I wonder if anyone else likes them too?

Good Morning!

Yum, yum - time for breakfast! And the sun is coming up, too! All of us - even the chickens - hope you are having a wonderful day.  

Baby chicks and diamonds in the tree

Our Board member Aimee Lauer brought four little chicks this morning - they were rescued from Craig's List. As far as we can tell, two Easter Eggers and two Legbars. This weekend is a strange mixture of weather - rain, wind, and sometimes moments of sun. The  sunlight in the tree  this morning made the wet leaves and branches look as though they were decorated with diamonds. We are hoping and praying that Hurricane Florence will miraculously weaken, although current maps show East Coast landfall and predictions are that the storm may be a category 4. Stay tuned . . .
