I could even push to have chickens as support animals
Chicken support! Fluffy chickens to the city hall!
Tax:
They still look plenty warm for my feet
They have been keeping me company here in the office - they are in and out from under Mummy frequently; she has been cluck-cluck-clucking to them to eat
You can't save all of them, you are doing a splendid job with your pets, I know if hard, and I hope the stray moves on so that your pets are safe.I'm really bothered by that cat he or she may have just been starving.It seemed too be scratching for scraps, but I couldn't risk princess being hurt and my old cat becomes fierce if anything approaches her, except for my dog and me.
I hope that cat is okay
What lovely markings. She is a stunner
