Our other farm friends....
|
Annie came to live with us when she was almost two years old and we have now had her for five years now! She came from Laurie's Fluffy Puppies in Orange Vermont. She didn't bond with her puppies, and we adopted her. She is an 8lb mini Shih-Tzu, and gets dressed up quite often. She is VERY mellow and could be a therapy dog. She likes to watch the family play card games and knows "paw", "down", "speak" and "sit". She has to be watched closely when outside as we have a lot of hawks around! She loves to herd goats, and loves chickens, her kitty friends, her bunny friends, and everyone she meets! She is the star of Valerie's new farm book "The Adventures of Sweet Meadows Farm: Annie the Farm Dog Helps Out."

The Kitties!

Callie
Phoebe |
Callie (aka Garfield), our 7yr old grey tiger kitty, is so silly...this photo sums her up! Much more laid back than Charlie was, they were two polar opposites, which is why we found them such a funny pair. We have always said that Callie is a "therapy" cat and just understood what someone needed and will give love endlessly. She is a bit more aloof though now since her friend Charlie ran away. She is truly the most amazing cat we have ever known, and our kids love and adore her. She is our son's best buddy. She acts like a mama to the three siblings Phoebe, Aslan and Shadow.

Phoebe turned 6yrs old in mid December, and is the smallest of the three siblings. She is very affectionate, but a little shy at times. She rubs up against everything: people, bunnies, goats, chickens - it doesn't matter! She's a love bug!

Shadow
Aslan
|
Shadow is a HUGE black cat and is the most silly and mischievous of all three siblings. He paws at the door to get in, and "talks" to you! He jumps up on door handles to let himself in the house. He weighs about 18lbs (all three siblings are part Maine Coon), and will stand and paw at you when you walk by. Nothing scares this boy! He is very good with his paws and knows how to open doors! 
Aslan (aka Mufasa) is an incredibly sweet boy and brother to Shadow and Phoebe (siblings). He sits by the door, alley cat meowing, until you open it and pick him up. He is extremely MELLOW and loves everyone in sight. He could easily be a therapy cat! One big mush, Azzie is amazing!
