Today was the alternative Christmas market at my church. Each year there is a petting area for the kids. This year there were sheep, goats, a snake (!), a skunk (scent gland-less). An adorable long-haired brown bunny named Mufasa and a chinchilla who was about as big as my two closed fists, thumbs together. I got to pet each of them just for a quick moment. The bunny was soooo sweet and the chinchilla was so incredibly soft! I think the bunny might have been a lion head and he sure had a ton of admirers at the Christmas market! Karen, I did ask one of their staff to consider nominating each of them for POTD. The chinchilla was sort of an ivory-cream color and such soft fur. So that was fun!
