Sooner (the surviving gosling) has a turkey poult buddy - named Goose - for company.
Please stay safe everyone, wash your hands and be mindful.
Humans here are all healthy so far, those most community activities are cancelled. The Post Office is open, though, so was very busy today.
I'm curious, Karen... Why did you decide to let Kathmandu and Marigold breed, rather than have them neutered/spayed long ago?
If you wanted some new furry faces around, I'm sure there are dozens, hundreds, more, of homeless cats around in rural Vermont, any of whom would be delighted with the opportunity for safe shelter and food and love.
Here is an extensive listing of cat shelters by county in Vermont: http://cat.rescueshelter.com/Vermont
Since Vermont is a long, narrow, vertical state, I don't know which of these places might be near you, but surely you wouldn't have far to go. And Mr. Google has many more listings under "vermont cat shelters," of course.
Meanwhile, my Girls and I are sending warm wishes for health and safety to the new kitty family and all your family (all species).

Death thought about it.
CATS, he said eventually. CATS ARE NICE.
