I got to see all the cats this morning. They are all doing fine. 

The sunrise was sure pretty. A new beginning is always a good thing. 

The donkeys and cows were all eating no that hay bale. They seem to be getting along good, it’s still early in the day. 

The pigs were ready for food. Athena was liking the pigs for some reason. I do not know what that is all about. I am sure she does it more than I realize. I also gave the pigs some hay for a treat. 

Ted does not seem to be feeling well. I am hoping it is just the weather change and all the hot weather. He did not seem to want to eat. But, I am hoping it is nothing. 

Lucky was the only goat to come see me this evening. It is too hot for all that. He did get a little treat of some corn for coming over to see me. 

Well, we have weeds everywhere right now. We do not usually have green grass at all at this time of year. I looked over and saw a black widow in the weeds who had a nest of eggs. I got rid of all of that. At least I think I did. I did not really want to get too close. 

The chicks were all over me again. They are so funny. And honestly, the chicks are all so beautiful. 

Ted did eat this evening. So, maybe it was nothing. 

It sure was a hot day.

I was able to see all the cats this morning first thing. It was not as hot in the morning. The animals are happy about that. Onyx was drinking water from the little goat's water trough. She was really all over the place. 

The donkeys were out an about in the pasture. 

The pigs were all doing well. So were all the other animals. 

The sun rise was pretty this morning. 

Fred is still looking out of sorts. 

The chicks were all over me. Every day more of them decide that is an acceptable thing to do. It is so funny to me. I love it. I have wished for this. I have heard to be careful what you wish for. This was a good thing for me though. The chicks are getting bigger and will not be in the coop much longer, so I have to soak it all in. 

The horses were getting along and eating. Saverine had separated herself for a while from them, but she came back around and went to eat with the others. 

I was able to spray the horses later in the day. It was so hot outside. 

I could not find Noma, so I went on the hunt for her. She was in a small little shelter staying out of the sun. She looked comfortable. Mattie was in the next one over in front of the fan. Silly animals. 

The pigs were all in the water as I went out. It really was hot. 

Ned was in the barn with the goats staying out of the sun. If someone ever tells you animals are not smart, do not believe them. They are all smart. 

Pedro wanted my attention. He followed me around for a while. 

The chicks were all over me again in the afternoon. It is too hot for all that in the afternoon. They make me laugh though. I cannot get mad at them. 

Jasper was acting like he was having difficulty with swallowing food today. I watched food pouring out of his mouth. I hate that. He has swelling in his jaw and throat again. Later he acted fine with eating. I just do not know. 

May needed to sit in front of the fan for a bit. I am glad she is hanging in there, but it is so hot out. 

Takua and Saverine are not happy with Spots for some reason, and they would not allow her to eat with them, so she went over to eat with Jeb.
