Herd Cat

Snickers is quite the personality. She doesn't seem to be phased by much.
She considers a goat butting a request for a snuggle.
Too much butting by the little ones though, and the paws come out punching.
Civility please.
When we went to the vet to get her stitches out a couple weeks ago, she met two perfectly strange dogs in the waiting area, and didn't raise a fuss at all. Blew the dogs' minds, as well as the owners. How could I tell? Well, the dogs just had that look. Their owners spoke.
Getting along with the house cat Pekoe, though, is still a work in progress.

Today was a Winter Wonderland cold day. Sunny, sparkly and white crusted. Jock's kind of roll in the snow and make snow angels day.
Snickers found her way out to the field to share the goats' food and water and follow them around. I think the kids think she is an odd little goat. She's always been with them, especially since those 14 below days in the warming barrel.


Snickers is like the kid sister that wants to do everything the big brother does. Jock is the embarrassed brother who tries to ignore her.

She wants to be part of the herding thing.

Whatever he does...


or wherever he goes...
is cool.
