brightly_litI've gotten so many kind responses to my first Snowflake Challenge post. Thank you all! It's so nice to meet/reconnect with you!!
Challenge #2: Pets of Fandom
Loosely defined! Post about your pets, pets from your canon, anything you want!
Though I had pets as a child, and allll I wanted for my whole youth was a horse, after my much-loved but extremely annoying Krazy Kat went to the great tuna buffet in the sky, I haven't had any more pets as an adult. We've discussed getting various farm animals, but it just doesn't sound appealing -- a lot of responsibility, poop, and fence repair. Plus I'm at least a little allergic to probably every animal with hair.
However, we do live in a pretty remote forested area, so we have a ball with sightings of the many kinds of animals we see on our property who consider it home, at least for a while: a lonely lady turkey, dozens of kinds of birds, a beautiful grey fox, many deer, a skunk who thinks it owns the place, plus a couple of stray cats whose eyes we saw glowing when we went out at night, and have only glimpsed in daylight when they thought no one was watching.
And of course, the giant slug who lives on one wall of our house! We call him Frisky.
