Last Days of Summer




Well, I woke up this morning and it was freezing. All the windows were opened and there were 20 mile an hour winds blowing through and 40 degrees. Time to move the bunnies back inside the barn. We keep the bunnies in an outside screened in area under a big chestnut tree. With fans blowing, this keeps the bunnies cool for the summer. In winter, we move them back into the barn with just enough heat to keep bottles from freezing. This works out well for the buns but is alot of work for me. All of the cages will be scrubbed down, power washed and disinfected before they go back into the barn. This can take me from 3 days to a full week depending on how my back holds out. Our old cat Munchkin refuses to give up on the idea of Summer and plans on going out on her raft for a few more turns around the pool. We sure do have some crazy animals at our house.
