Around the Farm #2 – O’Malley

Hey friends! I told you all that I would make a post next week…and I’ve been a bit longer than that. So I apologize for that. BUT I am here now!

To continue catching you up on all that has happened this year, I’m back to talk about the next topic!

O’Malley!

Now you may not know who O’Malley is… so I will tell you. He’s fluffy, cuddly, and meows. 😉 This is a post about my fluffy lil kitty boi!

Here’s the story about him…

Back in June of 2019, I was taking care of someone’s place while they were gone. I did their chores (bottle-feeding, giving out grain, feeding dogs and cats, etc.) and took care of the place for a weekend. This particular week when I was there, they had about 12 kittens that had been born.

They were small, fluffy, and all around ADORABLE. Shortly before this my cat who you all know about, Meow, had disappeared. 😦 I was disappointed and not sure if he would ever come back.

So I asked my dad if my cat didn’t return and if it was okay with the owners of the kittens, if I could claim one as my own and take it home. He said that would be ok

ay (as long as it was ONLY ONE). Sweet Meow never came back, so my dad asked the owner if they would be okay with me taking one. He was more than happy to give us as many as we wanted, so the next day that I went out there I got to pick one to keep as my own!

So me and my dad brought a little carrier full of some hay out to their place. When we got over to the barn that was home to the kitties, I looked them over as they ran to get their food I had just poured. There were short-haired, long-haired, orange, black, striped, tabby, and more. I had decided by then that I wanted a fluffy little boy. Now, keep in mind, these kittens had NEVER been touched before by a human.

So I found some leather gloves and walked up behind them while they were eating. I grabbed two of them (one in each hand), and picked them up. Freaking out, they clawed, and hissed, and scratched at me. After looking them over, we realized they were both girls, so I put them down. After going through this process for four more kittens, I found the one. 🙂 He was one of the craziest that I had grabbed so far, but definitely one of the cutest.. AND it was a boy. I looked at dad and told him, “This is the one I want.”

We got him home and left him alone in his carrier until he settled down. The next day, I put on more gloves so that I could hold him without worrying about getting scratched up. As I pulled him gently out of the carrier, I saw that he wasn’t scratching or hissing anymore. He was as calm as a tamed cat. My sister reached out quickly with her bare hands and arms, saying that she wanted to hold him. I quickly told her that that wasn’t a good idea, as he had been the most wild cat ever only a day earlier. She didn’t seem to care much, and grabbed him anyways. He acted the exact same, seeming to almost enjoy being held.

A few days go by, and he was the sweetest cat I’d ever met. Rubbing all over me, wanting pet, and purring more than even Meow did.

I still miss Meow, but he lived a good long life, and O’Malley has brought so many blessings to me. He’s the fluffiest, most adorable, cute lil fella EVER.

He has earned many nicknames by now.. such as

Mr. Moostache
Smallz
Shmallz
Furball
O’Mall
Kitty Boi
Fluff head
etc

Here are some more pictures!

This is what I call his “squirrel pose”, which he does almost on command now

Hope you enjoyed hearing about my (not so) new lil kitty!!!

Around the Farm #1 – BABY GOATS

*jumps into room*

HELLOOOOO MY FRIENDS! I AM ALIIIIIIIIIVE! First off, I want to apologize for being absent for so long… secondly I want to introduce a new SERIEEEEEES!

Around the Farm

Around the Farm will be a series to catch you up on new animals, crazy stories, and more! And I will also have tons of pictures!!!!
Guys…. like… SO MUCH HAS HAPPENED!

So

You will NEVER believe what I got this winter/spring!!!!!!!

BABY GOATS!!!!!!!

It’s a sweet and endearing story that melted my heart as in unfolded and I hope will melt yours as well. (in the best way possible)

It was a cold February day when I went to go do chores… stepping into the barn, I spotted two BRAND new BABY GOATS lying in the hay. They were wet and shivering, and their mother wasn’t taking care of them…  she was a new mother and not friendly at all… so I sadly this isn’t too rare of a situation if you live on a farm… but with two wet newborn baby goats out in the below freezing cold, I had to take action. So I brought them inside and warmed them by the fire, using a towel to dry them as good as I could. One of them was more energetic in little time, but the other one was too weak to even lift it’s head.

first time bringing them inside

After they were dry, warm, and moving around on their own, I attempted multiple times to repair them with the mother… but she wouldn’t take care of them… and every time I checked on them they were worse off than before.

So that left only one option….. Be their mother myself!

So that’s exactly what I did! They wore diapers, lived in a playpen in my room, and got fed a bottle (BY ME) every four hours…then every six… eventually only twice a day.

I gave them baths so they wouldn’t stink up my room, I cleaned their play pen, and I was always cleaning up their messes around the house when their diapers fell off. I finally knew a bit of the pain of having kids.

BUT

I absolutely loved it!

“Mommmmm”

If only a picture could capture how fast that tail wagged when she drank her bottle!!!

Milli being a show and tell model at co-op for the kid’s science lesson that mentioned split hooves…. what a surprise for them!

No, I didn’t like rolling over at two am and waking up babies so that they bleated at the top of their lungs til I fed them milk. No, I didn’t like cleaning up diarrhea all over their pen and washing it off of them. No, I didn’t like having to stay out of my room during their “nap time” when they’d finally be quiet at one pm every single day….

BUT… I LOVED the cuddles when they were wrapped in a towel after their baths. I LOVED them jumping around and following me through the house. I LOVED their tiny noises whenever I’d start making their milk. And I LOVED having baby goats inside.

Eventually they got older, and it warmed up outside… and they moved into the barn.

The sad part of the story is that…. I had to sell them. They were a different breed than our other goats and hence were smaller… therefore they wouldn’t have gotten along well … there were other reasons too, but it all boiled down to the fact that they needed a new home. 😦 Thankfully we found a good home for them to some kids who would truly show them the same love and care that I did. And I know they are living a good life now with those kids. I kept them til they were probably four months old.

It was an amazing experience…. and one I will NEVER forget.

Dear little Amelia (Milli)…

And dear little Agnes (Nessi)…

 

But ……that’s not all…

THERE WERE MORE BABIES

CRAZY, RIGHT!??????

So the story behind this is basically…

My friend’s grandpa owned a 250+ goat farm. I’ve helped her out there quite a bit, and knew all of the goats quite well. But her grandpa got in a car accident and it left him unable to walk very well and now he can’t do the chores out there… so he had to sell the farm. Which is super sad.

BUT, while he was in the hospital I helped my friend at the farm a TON. And there were two darling little baby goats born. This is where Gabriella (Gabbi) Ginger and Georgina (Georgi) Rose enter the story… where they entered my life. My two babies. Their mom has CAE (basically a disease of sorts that will turn into arthritis. The babies get it from the milk if they drink it.) so they had to be taken from the mom right after birth. But my friend’s family was too busy at the hospital to feed them every four hours…. SO they asked me if I would take care of them! I gladly said YES (after clearing it with my parents, of course).

These were now my SECOND pair of indoor baby goats. They also lived in a playpen in my room and got fed every four hours. They wore diapers most of the time and I’d let them out to play and have fun… Well…. when it came time to give them back to their rightful family…I didn’t want to say goodbye… And since the family wanted to repay me somehow for helping them with the farm…

THEY GAVE ME THE BABIES!!!!!

They are still with me today and are nearly seven months old!!!! They are beautiful and weigh about 70 pounds each! However, no matter how big they get they will ALWAYS be my babies.

Here are pictures of Gabbi and Georgi:

Four happy friends!

My dear baby Gabbi:

Dear baby Georgi:

This is the most recent picture

They are already finding their place in the world ❤

These baby goats have given me a new and fun experience this year. Although… they are getting older and bigger and I can hardly even call them babies anymore!

Come back next week to see #2 of this series about…. *drumroll*

O’Malley!

Who is O’Malley, you may ask? Well…. come back next week to find out. 😉

Miss you all so much! Please talk to me in the comments and let me know how you’ve been! How was your thanksgiving?

Sincerely,

K.A

Impressive Self Portrait, Laura! I don’t know exactly what you look like, but I sure have a better idea now! 😉 Jk, but that is really good for what I could have done!

Laura taped this funny little face to a door nob in her house! I want to know the reaction when someone first saw this! XD

BIBPC – Category #7 – Invincible

Hey’all! (see what I did there?) XD

Good to be back with you guys and gals again! So, I know I cut it really close again with this, but my picture IS HERE! YAY! So this is the LAST *sighs and sniffs* category for BIBPC! I honestly have mixed feelings over this…because I’m sad it’s over, but I’m also slightly relieved that I’m not like having to run around on the last day to turn it in yelling “I FORGOT I FORGOT” and counting down how long I have til midnight… because – let’s face it – I’m a forgetful person.

Yep.

Even though (thank you Megan) I always HAVE plenty of time to post it… I usually (actually, always) waited until the last second to take one though… sooo… yeah. I’ll stop making excuses now. XD Haha!

ANYWAYS, it will also be less of a burden now for Megan! Megan, you will no longer *until the next BIBPC* have to deal with my “five minutes from due date” picture entries! Haha!

Alas though, I did get a picture for the following category of…

…

…

Oh wait… it’s in the title isn’t it…

Yeah, as you probably already read- Category #7 is INVINCIBLE!!!

So my thoughts are, God and the Bible are both invincible! And so is light! ESPECIALLY God’s light!

Jhn 1:5

And the light shineth in darkness; and the darkness comprehended it not.

So I took a picture of light next to God’s word showing that God, light, the Bible, and God’s light are incomprehensible, therefore they are also invincible.

I hope you enjoyed!

Sadly, I didn’t really have time to make a poster, so I will not be turning one in for bonus points. Sorry… Good job, Team Fox! Y’all did a good job!

Farewell to BIBPC … FOR NOW… *wiggles eyebrows* *evil grin*

And farewell and goodnight to you all as well!

Now I have a couple pages of words to write up, a blog to comment on, and a future blog post for YLFC to write!

So…

ADIOS!

~K.A

SO, FOR THIS CATEGORY, the theme is … *drumroll please*

FURRY!

SO, I had only a few days to get this pic before I leave on a mission trip, but here is what I came up with!

Hopefully you find this cute as I did, and not gross because of the milk and… *ahem* slobber…. XD This is the darling little calf again! BTW, it does not yet have a name…although some people want to call it Biscuit… (BUT NOT ME) SO, please PLEASE help me out and give GOOD NAME SUGGESTIONS for it in the comments below! Thanks!

ALSO, the collaboration Blog I am part of (YLFC) is coming up on its two-year blogiversary!!!! So there is going to be some FUN stuff coming up in the next couple months for that! Head on over and check it out!

Thanks, people!

Fun fact: I was looking through my comments and posts and I HAVE BEEN BLOGGING OVER FOUR YEARS!!! Can you believe that? That is crazy! At least… it is to me! Thanks so much for following me in my craziness of blogging! Here are some *painful* snippets from my first ever post, Welcome, published September 23, 2014!

Hi, I’m K.A. and I’m going to tell you what I know about Horses,dogs, Fish,chickens, and Hermit crabs! I hope that by Cuddly critters you can get to know Gadget, Aggie, Fred, Derf, Crabby, Hermy, Nifel, Snipe, Ostrich, Tiker, Chubster, Cutie,  Bobbie, Sammie,Matthew, Mark, Luke, John, Bibbles, and Stuart as well as I do. Well, lets get started!

Not HORRIBLE so far… I read this a couple days ago and my first thought was “Who are Bibbles and Stuart???” After a few more moments of reading I saw that I had two goldfish at that time and was like “OH, I forgot I had goldfish named that!”

Haha!!! Anyways… here’s a bit more…

Recently we have gotten a Rosetta Stone thing and are learning Spanish! I really like it. Los hombres cocinan arroz. The men are cooking rice!!!

I can’t wait to see my Gadget again. He is out to pasture right now. I am missing him alot. But I should be able to see him soon. I really love that big four year old.

If you want to see a youtube of a Hermit Crab eating, search this!

CRINGY!!!!

1, why am I trying to show off my spanish skills, and 2, what is up with the short jumpy sentences? And… Really? A YouTube video link?? What? RANDOM….

All in all, for a ten year old I guess it could have been worse! XD

You’ve probably seen enough cringiness to last you for a while, so I’ll end with a cute picture of my Meow and then leave you to your Christmas evening!

Goodnight, y’all!

~K.A

Hey all! I hope you enjoy this picture! I would love to say more and show more pics, but I can only show two because I have an hour to turn in this picture before the contest! Thanks Megan for dealing with my tardiness! XD

Here is the picture that took over three hours to get! 😀

So in case you don’t know the category, or want to know how it fits in, it had to have words:

Candle, Chesnuts, Celebrate, Chill, Celebrate, Carols, Candy Canes!

So in the picture, Sully is literally the defenition of Chill, and here he is, chillin in the “chill”y weather and so…. chill? And then there are candles next to him, and a rawhide candy cane, and lights plus reindeer antlers equal celebrate (?) and then the picture is on a card and the “carol” beneath it mentions chesnuts AND carols…..?

And I am on Team Fox!

SO PLEASE I HOPE IT COUNTS!

Just so you know, this is NOT an old card! This picture was taken this morning!!! Here is the picture I took without the card!

Thanks guys! I hope you like the picture! ENJOY YOUR WEEKKKK!!!!!!!!!
