This is a story about Chauncey the Pig who lives at a Sanctuary in the country on the eastern plains. Now, there are cookies that pigs like a lot.   But when it comes to Chauncey the Pig…HE LOVES NUTTER BUTTERS. How did I find out how much he loves Nutter Butters?   Well,  I will tell you the story. All summer Chauncey would go out to the large front yard area where the Hoop House stands.       Sometimes, he liked to visit Princess Water Lily and Chief Thumper there even though they startled Chauncey with their drumming feet the first time they met .       Chauncey would saunter around the Hoop House garden eating a tomato here and some broccoli there.  Smacking away the day munching on lunch and things.   As fate would have it, Chauncey couldn’t go out into the big yard again because, being a pig, he ate too much of the garden, he scared the roosters and chickens, and he didn’t listen when it was time to go back to his house.    Chauncey missed going out into the big yard.       One day, I had an idea.   I remembered a small … Continue reading →

The leaves go crunch…all in a bunch…the forest’s all aglow..the forest’s all aglow. The leaves go crunch…all in a bunch…and this one thing I know…the forest’s all aglow. Now I see the colors in the leaves that fall beneath me at my feet. Now, I feel the leaves go crunch…all in a bunch.  I hear them crackle each one I meet.   The harvest has come…the garden’s done as we wait for Winter White’s snow.     The stream is slow…the forest’s glow…all show me fall is here.   I’m here… I’m here…I’m here…Autumn Gold is here   The Autumn time is in my hand.  The Clock of Seasons slows the land and catches Autumn’s glow.     The clock slows down across the land…and pleases Autumn Gold … Continue reading →

What a wild ride the last few days here at the Animal Sanctuary… Our Roo’s lost their “Cockadoodle Doo’s”. We spent many hours with lots of hard work waiting to see if our two great roosters…Rhett, and Chicken Man were going to pull through.       Somehow, a strange virus was brought into the little chicken village.  Nothing was the same.   One after another chicken and two roosters became very ill and we had a major crisis on our hands in order to save the ones that got the virus even to the point of dying.   We stayed very busy as we worked with each chicken and the two roosters who had totally lost their “Cockadoodle Doos” due to the virus in their throats. We researched the virus and found out that it was usually fatal especially with the symptoms our two beautiful roosters had.   First, Chicken Man became very ill.  He couldn’t breathe and he was constantly in a state of trying to get air into his lungs.         Then, Rhett came down with the same symptoms as they both had blood flying from their throat and nose still struggling to breathe.   … Continue reading →

WHAT A BEAUTIFUL DAY…SUNSHINE, LOLLIPOPS AND RAINBOWS…THE SONG GOES…         A day for five special little goats to come live in our…     Sunshine, Lollipop, and Rainbow land…       We traveled many miles to bring these special little goats back to their new home.   Heidi       Bambie       Anabelle       Pimbee (front) and Buttercup (back)       Little, Sweet Hearts on a new adventure. We arrived to pick them up in a horse trailer.   We had already anticipated that they would not be willing participants to get in the trailer to travel to their new home so we were ready for anything. We never expected what happened next…     Five little goats all in a line…all loving popcorn as their special treat to eat. We watched as the lady who had raised them carried a big bag of popcorn out to the field where they were playing.  Every goat’s head turned to see that a very special snack was in store from the paper bag. The little goats were in the present moment totally focused on the bag of popcorn…nothing else mattered…nothing else was noticed. We … Continue reading →
