The Life of Winnie Mae

Three Years Old!!!

Happy Birthday, Winnie Mae.

Hare Today Order!

Yipee!

I love it when Mom buys me yummy things from Hare Today!

First of all, I'm sorry for not writing in a while. I've been busy with my new sisfur, Pearl Irene! We've had a lot of fun together, but sometimes she drives me nuts.

But back to the FOOD, FOOD, FOOD!!!!

Mom bought pig ears, whole sardines, a guinea pig, eight adult quail, quail feet, duck necks, mice (for my kitty sisfur, Verlaine), rabbit heads, and rabbit organs.

Here's Mom now, taking over the typing, to tell you about each of the things:

Well, it's true, Winnie and Pearl are going NUTS over the new stuff!

Here's a rundown.

Pig Ears: Haven't opened the bag yet, but my first impression is . . . BUY AGAIN! Just under $1/ear, they're pretty good sized. I'm excited to try these out.

Whole Sardines: MUCH bigger than I expected! I was thinking three-four inches, but no--these are at least six! I'm very excited to try them though, and providing the girls like them, I will be purchasing them again. They do smell, however.

Guinea Pig: So C-U-T-E! I'm really looking forward to feeding this. Seven dollars a pig means I won't be feeding it very often, but it's adds nice variety.

Adult Quail: These are bigger than I expected! Definitely purchasing these again; they're cheaper than they are at the Asian markets!

Quail Feet: The girls LOVE these. They are REALLY, REALLY small though. I'm not going to buy them again, because they're just too expensive. I chose quail feet over chicken feet, because Winnie is allergic to chicken; however, it is a light allergy, and the chicken is so much cheaper, I will be buying that instead next time.

Duck Necks: Will feed these tonight. I'll update the journal and let y'all know how it goes. But first impression? I like it.

Adult Mice: Again, these are for the cat. My aunt is paying for them, but maybe, just maybe, she'll let me try one! They're pretty small, but just about perfectly sized for one meal for Pearl, Winnie, or Verlaine. If they're on sale again the next time I order, I might grab a package.

Rabbit Hears: Bigger than I expected. But how can you go wrong? Ten heads for seven bucks, providing a unique organ (brain) and some tasty rabbit.

Rabbit Organs: Again, how can you go wrong? BOL! I'm glad I got these! Pearl won't be getting any (oh, boo hoo) because she isn't allergic to the cheaper organ sources like Winnie is.

Overall, the only thing I regretted at all was the quail feet, and I'm not horribly depressed over it or anything. And I'm really excited about all the whole prey, which is freaking my parents out! :))

Woofs and Wags,

Winnie Mae

Sleepovers!

Oh my gracious!

Mommy had a sleepover last night with her sister and five of her friends. They sat down at the piano and played music and sang for THREE HOURS (including a medley of Les Miserables, some Kanon of Praise, Pachabel's Kanon, Wir Eilen, Pie Jesu, Blue Skies, Poor Man Lazarus, and many, many, many hymns!) All of the humans had a hard time talking after that--they had been singing for too long!

THEN they played some games, laughed a LOT, and screamed once when one of the girls scared the others. Finally, they watched "How to Train Your Dragon" and went to bed at one o'clock.

In the morning, they played Wii, sang some more, and took me for a WALK!!! That was the only good part about the sleepover. Well, that, and sleeping on the couch :-O

Now everyone is tired. My Mom actually took a nap! I am napping too--it feels good.
