Wow, we are glad that February is over, as we got our whole winter in one month. Below zero temperatures. Snow. Ice storms. High winds. We had it all. It became apparent that we really need a tractor to maintain the driveway, so that will be our next project!
The animals are well prepared for the cold temperatures and all snuggled in their straw lined shelters. They love to play in the snow. After the melt came the mud, but they seem to not mind as much as the two footers do.
We have changed foods around a little and added more animals to Taste of The Wild Premium dog food. As our animals age, their nutritional requirements change, and we must adapt accordingly. Also, prices have increased greatly with Diamond Naturals now $28.00 per bag, Chicken Soup changed to a 30 pound bag, leaving us with a loss of 5 pounds per bag. When we are able, we supply marrow bones for vitamins and enrichment, and your donations make that possible.
More than half of our residents are over the age of 10, with several turning 14 or 15 this year. We are thankful to YOU, our supporters for this monumental feat. It is through your support, we can provide nutritious food and supplements to our animals, which is the reason behind their longevity.
Thank you all for your continued support, and we are sending Joyous Howls to you and yours!
Arrrrooooooooo!
