Growing up, the dog was always outside, we never had s cat and if we did, it would have been outside. The only indoor pet was a hamster. Now all our pets live inside with us.
Lizbeth, the banty, is a direct result of a mirror. The kids had het out, and put a mirror where she could see it. She started making lonely chicken noises, then would fall asleep, only to wake up and make sue the other chicken was still there.

And that's how the chicken in the mirror became s real, live bird, even though the two look totally different.

I'd grump, but I love Lizbeth too much, and I'm glad we have her.
Goodnight to those still up, and good morning to those getting up soon - ish. Take care.
