RustyRoo

 Tonight we said good-bye to our beautiful RustyRoo - tomorrow morning he will be traveling to his new home at Rikki's Refuge in Virginia where he will have much more space to enjoy being a rooster!

We will miss his morning efforts to call up the sun, but we still have his brother SilverRoo, so Sanctuary House will not be without rooster crowing. Someday SilverRoo may move to Rikki's Refuge as well, but with limited travel space, there was only room for one rooster.

And no worries, the brothers will not miss each other - they have been separated (from each other and from our hens) for safety's sake for many, many months now! SilverRoo actually lives with our two Pekin ducks, Penn and Kelly.

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?

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 . . .
