Hi Timetraveller,
that cat sounds really cool. The birds he's pestering are those pet birds or the wild ones in the yard? Lucky that the dogs ignore him, otherwise he'd be in trouble.
The rabbit, well the breeders friend has snaks and she gives her the ones she can't use anymore. Not all of them, lots of them go to people like me.This one has a few toes missing because she was atacked by a dog at some point. She's quite a character though, with a temper.
My horse Misty I met last year after my other horse which was at least 35 and incidentally also called Misty passed away. The other Misty was an ex lesson horse that needed a home. I already knew her when she was still teaching lessons and she would stop teaching and go to the gate for me to get her out with the kid still sitting on her. So when she could not teach anymore I got her.
The new Misty came to the ranch about a month after MistyI passed away. Her owner just dumped her after 22 years and she was really upset. They tried to use her for lessons, but she is too much of a firespitting dragon for that, so I just begged them to give her to me instead. I think we just both needed someone at the time. I don't know much about her apart from that.
