Well, the older kids left after holiday break, and have been replaced by a few canines and one feline...
Welcome the newest additions to our family here in the village:
Penny just had her puppies- 10 total! They are only a week old...so no names yet. Their baby eyes are still closed! Penny is thin, and wants to eat alllll the time, especially meat. But she is being a good mother, feeding the puppies and keeping them safe and warm...and we are doing our best to keep up with her appetite...
Oh, and it's time for some "family planning" for Penny, as my sister Anna, says...
And out of nowhere, this little one showed up on our homestead...
Meme said his name is Kitty, so we now call him Mbishi - which means "cat" in Oshikwanyama.
Yes, my family thinks it's funny that we named the cat, Cat. :)
And as of now, this kitten loves to be held and purr, and isn't too keen on chasing mice...
Not so good for a cat that lives in a village....
And then my brother brought home this cute little thing...who I've named Sam. I'm not sure why he brought him because we will already have many puppies, and this means another mouth to feed, but hey, another cute furball is fine with me!
Sam and Mbishi are slowly becoming friends....
