Shetland sheep have changed my life and touched my heart. They have brought me joy, adventure and serenity. Follow along as I live each day influenced by memories of my mighty flock of mini sheep ~ aided and abetted by "Bellamica", the English Shepherd,"Sable", my livestock guardian dog and "Hero" the rescue dog that stole my heart! You'll also meet many of the homeless dogs that I rescue and rehome as part of Bluff Country Canine Rescue.
Love this picture! :-) I don't know what it is about the sheep/cat connection, but my sheepies adore the cats and will practically fall down to get them to love on them. Thanks for sharing. Tammy
That ewe has such expressive eyes! Beautiful! And I think that's funny, my sheep HATE cats...They try to run them into the ground when they're in their pen. Well, I shouldn't say all, some seem a little inquisitive about the cats, but none seem to like them much. Pretty sheepy and kitty though :)
Most of my adult ewes will chase the cats but Daisy in particular (she's the calico) goes way out of her way to make friends with the lambs. So, each year, I'm getting more and more girls who like her and will actually snuggle with her!
Daisy is a very special kitty! Love the look on the ewe's face, too...What a photo--you have GOT to start entering these in contests...have you entered them in the fair, ever?
I so wish we lived in an area like yours where the cats could roam the place. Our busy street is not a good thing for any cat to be near. Nor is the field where the coyotes hunt.
