    Ragdollcatlady's Just a Little Patch of Weeds Farm journal

    So this was 3 nights ago... Had a 5 am wake up from Karma giving some light "woofs" indicating something was off (not her "I'll kill em-there's a human nearby", just a "something isnt right" kind of sound). She was sleeping in her kennel in the front room so sometimes she will tell us of...

    Anyone in need of a trio of obnoxious kittens? Very cute, healthy and full of spunk. All 3 have honed their special skills as follows: Most competent at knocking the power cord to the internet router completely out of the wall at the most critical of times, namely in the middle of an important...

    Well.... maybe Im not a spring chicken, but I am not old enough to have rigor mortis yet either! :old LOL! (The swelling around me knee had been minimal that day so I was able to swing it if I held my breath for each brush stroke ;) )

    Finally, the time I spent training Beaux Jangles 10 years ago, to pick up and fetch items and trash, is paying off. He brought me the PS controller from the TV stand, picked up the TV remote 3 times after I dropped it and couldnt reach it (I havent used the remote for 7-8 years, but we...

    Thanks for the welcome back. So I made it to the specialist and he discussed the options for surgery vs cast. The bone was displaced 1.6 mm, 2.0 is the mandatory surgery threshold. He showed me that all the other bones appear to be in the correct locations, and appropriately aligned. So I opted...

    So sorry I have been gone for a bit..... My, supposed to be calm and boring life, has decided to spice things up again. Yesterday at work things started rough with us losing 2 emergencies that rushed in, both on deaths door, one cat and one puppy.... then one of my best techs got clawed up by a...

    So, I currently have 3 kittens in my care. The first one, Scribbles, I accidentally caught in a trap I set for the evil feral toms that attack Ladybug (my resident rodent hunting cat). The next one was brought into my job by a coworker on her day off. Her dog was going nuts jumping at...

    Been gone awhile... just busy, got a few stories to share.... where to start? How about another embarrassing one? Those are usually good right? K, so Dusty Roads (my mostly trusty, 20 year old Dodge Durango) was acting up and needed to see the doc. Great news is that my shop from the town...

    Advice needed on keeping dairy and meat goats together

    That would be easiest. But try whatever makes the most sense and adjust from there. I dont seem to keep the same pens or systems in place for any given year. I am always changing to make things easier for me, easier for the goats... you might try a "creep feed" area. Make an adjacent pen to your...

    Advice needed on keeping dairy and meat goats together

    I have both, mostly raised together. I started with dairy goats (nigerians) and feel like I have the management for dairy goats down pretty well. It has taken me some time to realize that my meat goats do have drastically different needs as far as feeding and maintenance. I am looking to...

    Raised goats for years. No idea what this is??

    I had an issue this year with one of my babies. He was maybe in the 5 month old range when I noticed he was holding cud in his mouth for extended periods. He wasn't gaining weight like his brother or others in the same pen. His cud was fresh, and he was always willing to eat, but he obviously...

    Custom designed just for me.... Its a fenceline feeder for my goats! I am so excited! I probably need about 3 more... but I get to try it out tomorrow. I got it installed in the part of the fence that needed to be cut out due to rusting through the cattle panel. And he gave me this as a...
