    Purring or Growling?

    Yolko is getting picked on by the rest of the flock while she’s molting, she has neuropathy according to the vet and can’t get around very easily.

    Created in 3D software first. Then the real work began. Zero carpentry experience. Made some mistakes, but overall pretty happy with the end results. The ladies love it!
