Cuter Than a Speeding Bullet
Are Magnethe and Mathilde looking pregnant, that is the question?
They certainly look heavy, that’s for sure. But then it’s hard to know whether that’s just the good life at the playground or actual pregnancy. People who don’t know that Mads is a boy often ask “is she going to have a baby soon?”. Mads is a confident goat, I don’t think he minds being mistaken for a girl. But a baby he won’t be having, that’s for sure. I also thought it was for sure that Magnethe and Mathilde would be having kids. But then the other day Kurt and Per were talking and “hoping that there would be kids soon”. I take it that it’s not completely for sure. I do hope it will happen, otherwise I’ll be sorely disappointed. I have set my hopes high for cute little goat kids in the cutest goat family in the world.
I mean how can you fight genes like these:
We’re almost in April so it shouldn’t be too long before we find out either way. I am crossing my fingers.
Magnethe challenging Mads for the bench. She stood her ground for a while but…
Mads likes the bench. Not least when I’m sitting on it.
My buddy.
A nice motif:
It didn’t turn out as well as I had hoped, but maybe you can appreciate the idea? The tree crowning his head and so forth and so on.
And don’t forget the lambs.
They are growing but they are still tiny little cuties. The brothers Fine and Flotte are baahing a lot. While Uldrik is keeping cool. He always seems so serene. I have a fun video of them in a minor hailstorm. Fine and Flotte are sort of moving around, trying to get out of the windside. And Uldrik is just standing still. Chewing and staring off in the distance, not being bothered by the weather at all. Reminded me of a fisherman at the shore in a rainstorm, letting the elements do their thing.
And now a little fun with Moomincat.
He’s such a pretty kitty.
I like picking him up.
I still don’t really know the proper way to pick up a cat, but he suffers my mistakes in a dignified way. And it feels really good to hold him and cuddle him and love him. I wish relations with humans were as easy.
And then he’s off, climbing trees and walking on rooftops. Almost like a superhero.
Thank god for little wonders.
PS. Updated the greetz with a greet from Lindsay. Lindsay the comicbookgiver. It’s been lying on my desktop for a while. The greet, not the comicbook. I procrastinate therefore I am.

omg, the pics are sooo cute, you sugaz look so happy, that’s awesome! thank you for making my day :))) you know, with picking up cats, it’s best you put one arm around the belly and support the behind with another, sorta looks like holding a baby. it’s good you can practise all you want, cause Moomin is such a good kitty. to have a bond with a cat is a pretty special thing, because they have a mind of their own and do exactly as they please, not as they are told. he chose you for a friend :) you have a gift in taming animals, you know! super.
purrrfect! :)

Jeg tror, der er kid på vej, så glæd dig. Læg en flad hånd på maverne og pres forsigtigt. Er du heldig, kan du mærke de små, ny. Og er du rask nu?
