Yeah, we have to get our 3 house cats vaccinated for rabies even though they never leave the house ... except to go to the vet. I skip all the other vaccines since there is no way they can come into contact with those diseases. Of course if one of the cats needs to have surgery the vet requires them to get the other vaccines.

Maisy and Mel got bathed and the skunk smell is gone. It was close to 80 degrees out today and it was a good thing since Mel wouldn't fit in the groomers tub so they did him outside.

We worked enough of the garden beds to let us get ready to plant the cool weather vegetables we have started. We have enough covers that they will be good when we get that last spell or two of cold weather we almost always get late.

Whiskey and Grayson are back to normal after their day or so of trauma. Grayson is actually calmer than before and Whiskey is his lovable self. He has figured out how to come in the screen door by staying between your legs somehow but you get inside and look down and there he is.

Tally was indeed pregnant and she and the big male that we named Trouble, haven't been seen since they were let out of their carriers. That's ok as long as the kitten chain is broken with them.

We got the parasite egg count finished on the nine ewes that we pulled fecals from and we are happy to see that none of them need to be wormed.

The seven lambs that we pulled yesterday are adjusting well but I had only seen a couple of them nursing in the last week or so anyway. We usually use a wether or one of the ewes to break them into the routine of where to go but the bottle lamb Babs, comes running every time she sees her people and that's enough to bring the others in. They will be on a little feed until the grass starts growing more and they are taming right down.
