Wow - I struggle to tell if my chickens are too fat or too thin - I have no idea how I would know if an emu was slim!

Or short! Maybe that's a very tall human?

I saw one at the zoo not so long ago and it seemed a lot bigger.

Not an Emu...

Another quality educational post. Thanks so much.

I guess we're accustomed to the emus we see in the wild, which are taller and fuller looking.

He was in the wild all winter! Of course probably not a lot of good feed here for him.

They tend to be a fair bit bigger than an average domestic cat. A big one is about 20+ pounds whereas my bigger cats are around 12 pounds (my runt is only 6 pounds).
My guess is @BY Bob's cat Davis is approaching the size of a raccoon.

Size and looks. I call him raccoon all the time.

Her ears in that second picture are fantastic!
It looks like you photoshopped the tufts.

That second picture might be my favorite of her so far. It captures her inquisitive nature for sure.

You read my mind, she's stunning!

Thanks. I agree

I figured I'd end Caturday with Josh and Scooby. ❤

Lovely boys.

At least she hasn’t presented you with just the head and the tail!

If I had not taken it from her, that's what I would have gotten.

Wonderful video.

What amuses me is the Vorwerks still view me with great suspicion ~ but not enough to think any treats are poison!

I think maybe they thrive in their native habitat?
