Three of them visited around 3 this morning. I called the feed store, and it is just called 'deer feed' and is made by Nutrena.<BR/>K, I can't bear it. I thought there were laws saying animals had to have a shelter.Nanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15547916206007733970noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6049626897935912366.post-85695761653978884392009-01-14T02:02:00.000-05:002009-01-14T02:02:00.000-05:00I love feeding birds and animals when I can during...I love feeding birds and animals when I can during the winter. I even have a bag full of dry bread crusts in the car for if I find along my route horses and donkeys left out in the fields in winter without shelter or hay. This happens too often and is heartbreaking to see.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11868517816392318853noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6049626897935912366.post-86879726102018458452009-01-13T19:39:00.000-05:002009-01-13T19:39:00.000-05:00They are really hungry here with cold and snow and...They are really hungry here with cold and snow and all covered up.

That is what I think is wrong!!Stacihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07600979915661464945noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6049626897935912366.post-26437463428642140562009-01-13T16:59:00.000-05:002009-01-13T16:59:00.000-05:00Cait, you've sure got just the right space for...Cait, you've sure got just the right space for them! I can picture them down by the caravan, waiting for handouts from any guests staying there. :<) When we were in Ireland, almost 17 years ago, we visited the Dysart Donkey Sanctuary in County Clare. It was then run by Colleen and Peter Jay. Have you ever heard of it? I can't seem to find it online. And those donkeys I mentioned in the link are now taken care of by an English one in Devon- http://www.minackchronicles.com/derekandjeannie.html<BR/><BR/>They are the most wonderful creatures - cheerful, friendly, loving toward children.Nanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15547916206007733970noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6049626897935912366.post-55462711661057081672009-01-13T16:39:00.000-05:002009-01-13T16:39:00.000-05:00I admire your independence, you New Englanders.
