Simon Says… play?

Simon says he is feeling better these days. He finished his antibiotics from whatever was bothering him before, and he has new energy.

Get that toy, Simon!

Simon likes to get the toy and shove it onto the floor.

“Get it?”
Then my job is to fetch it and bring it back to him. Wait a minute… that seems backwards.

And he’s off to chuck it onto the floor again!

It’s good to see Simon feeling better. When he’s not chasing his toys, he hangs out outside with me and catches bugs. Here he is sniffing his paws after coming back inside.
“Smell like spider.”

In other news, Flapper had friends in town this past weekend. Janis & Todd, who adopted Eddie the duck from us a few years ago, came to town to say hello.

O’Malley is still molting, so that means he’s still a crankasaurus, but lovable as well.

Olivia is doing well, and I think she might want to move in with Janet and Olly Astro soon. In the evenings, she sometimes heads into their night pen with them before going over to her own. This would be great if she decided to roost with Olly & Janet. They could keep each other warm in the winter, and it would also free up a night pen for us to use for other rescues as they come and go.

We’ll keep you posted on her decision. Until then, have a great week.
Quacks and clucks,
Tiff, Simon & the flock

Good to see Simon up and about! You looking GOOD, Simon boy!
“Come and go”? C’mon. You mean “come and stay … and stay … and stay.”
Simon as Mary Katherine Gallagher. “Sometimes, when I get nervous, I put my fingers here….”
He’s got you trained to the appropriate level, I think, much as Peepers has done with me in relation to the Pen Game. Birds, cats — they’re all the same in their ability to mold us.
