For this week’s article I have chosen my favorite topic – napping - or as I like to call it, ‘the foundation of life’. As a cat, I feel it is important that I achieve maximum productivity, so I usually sleep for about 19 - 20 hours a day. I wish it was more, but … Continue reading Mickey’s Monday Musings – Wisdom of the Cat: On the Topic of Naps

When We Had a House Sheep
Back in the spring of 2016, during our first set of lambs, one of our ewes had twins. These were the first lambs to be born on our farm! We knew that the mother was pregnant, but we didn’t know when the lambs would be born. One day, as we were feeding them, we heard … Continue reading When We Had a House Sheep
Mickey’s Monday Musings – Wisdom of the Cat: On the Topic of the Little Dog
This week, I have chosen one of my favorite animals. I believe the humans call her Sparky, but I know her as Little Dog. Now, Sparky is one of my most devoted disciples. She waits on me paw and tail, obeying my every command. I could not ask for a more devoted servant. I would … Continue reading Mickey’s Monday Musings – Wisdom of the Cat: On the Topic of the Little Dog
Sparky’s Many Friends
Our five year old Chihuahua – Terrier Sparky has made many friends over the years. Most of them were an accident. One day, a few weeks after we had adopted her as a puppy, the mail carrier pulled into our driveway to deliver a package. It was early summer, and we were outside with Sparky … Continue reading Sparky’s Many Friends
Mickey’s Monday Musings – Wisdom of the Cat: On the Topic of Chickens and Chicks
I just noticed that my human appears to have posted an ‘article’ on his ‘blog’ about the recent chicks. In light of this, I feel it is necessary to share MY opinion on the birds. Now, as long as I can remember, the humans have been teasing me with chickens. They place 30 nice, plump … Continue reading Mickey’s Monday Musings – Wisdom of the Cat: On the Topic of Chickens and Chicks
Cheeper by the Dozen
So… Sometime in late November, we started to notice that one of our bantam (small) hens was sitting on a clutch of eggs. Over the years we have hatched many batches of chicks, but they have all been during the warmer months. We figured this hen could not keep the eggs at the necessary temperature … Continue reading Cheeper by the Dozen
Mickey’s Monday Musings – Wisdom of the Cat: On the Topic of Sheep
As King of this farm, I feel that it is necessary to contribute in some way to this ‘blog’ that one of my foolish humans has created. For my first topic, I will discuss the species which humans call ‘sheep’. Or, as I prefer to call them, ‘disciples’. These ‘sheep’ are one of the few … Continue reading Mickey’s Monday Musings – Wisdom of the Cat: On the Topic of Sheep
Introduction to the ‘Farm’
So… we live on a ‘farm’. I use the word farm lightly, as this is more like an all inclusive animal resort. We have chickens that don’t lay eggs, rabbits we don’t eat or sell, horses we don’t ride, and sheep who produce wool we don’t use. And we have the cat. He is King. … Continue reading Introduction to the ‘Farm’
