So Thursday was like Wild Kingdom at my house. So many animals, so much going on. NO PIGS thank godness and Remus and Tate seem to be fine with the other animals. But at one point my field out front had three geese, one house cat, and a fox. And the fox was having such a good time. I videoed a ton but this is one of the best one.
The fox is hopping with glee. So funny. Then he took off (get it, fox on the run) and skeedaddled.
We also had the neighbor’s white cat fishing at our pond. She was like three feet away from the geese who were three feet away from the fox at times. It was insane.
The cat finally left and the geese never seemed bothered by either the fox or the cat but I was frozen cold, standing out so long taking videos.
Also this morning this was waiting at our dock…..
The wildlife here is remarkable. As long as pigs stay the eff away all is good! Remus and Tate both were interested in me videoing and kept coming up to see if I had cookies (I did not). So sorry guys. Not that either needs cookies!
Anyway, this is most likely Remus’s last weekend home before he goes to get his butt kicked at boot camp.
He will head out either Sunday or Monday (not sure yet) to go to Kentucky. Yep May As Well Event gets to babysit Remus (and take lots of photos and media to send me!!) and watch fat Remus get back into shape. Her trainer was nice enough to take Remus on in her training program since I literally could not find anyone to take him around here that either had space or even an indoor. They also have my permission to make him less feral looking! I am so excited!
I am figuring Remus will be there a month or a bit longer but we shall see how he does. I am really excited and while I wish it was closer I am glad someone I trust is near him to keep an eye on him. Emily may hate me by the time this is all over (sorry in advance for what a pain I am going to be,, I owe you wine or something)! It will be fun to see if Remus enjoys being back in work. Meanwhile Tate is staying here and I hope he can handle being alone or I will have to borrow a horse to keep him company till Remus is back.
The weather is supposed to be in the 70s this weekend (YAY) but rain and storms (BOO). I am glad my horse is going to somewhere where he can be ridden. Doesn’t look optimistic for here anytime soon!
Happy Friday!
Woohoo! Can’t wait to meet Remus… and eventually throw a leg over him when he is less feral. ❤

I was fascinated by that fox. I was out there waiting to fight for the cat if i had to! LOL that cat must have 17 lives. The neighbors leave it outside (It has a cat bed and heat lamp etc but coyotes, foxes, hawks oh my) UGH. and it is pretty brave to be all the way here on my property! (And Remus will have so many regrets I am sure too bad he can’t take over writing my blog)! HA

The Fox was hunting mice. They listen for sounds of movement, then pounce to stun/catch in their paws before snacking. They are excellent mousers. We have some urban foxes here in Madison and they are remarkably blasé around people.
The geese will need to watch their nest because foxes love bird eggs if they can get them.
I can see you adding a mini donkey so Tate can feel like the big guy for a change. Vacay is over, Remus!

That fox is such a cutie. Oh Remus, I have a feeling he’s going to be in for a shock. We’re finally getting warm temps as well – yay!

Squeee!!! Look at that bushy fox tail! So darn cute. We had a black fox at one time but I haven’t seen him in a while.
Yay for Remus boot camp! Exciting that it’s with another blogger so you can get tons of updates.

Ooo, yay for Remus! I don’t think he will agree though. We saw 2 foxes the other day. They are interesting creatures. Vermin here though!
