We have 3 Yorkies in the house, 7 cats (fixed) in the barns, 23 horses in the paddocks. There are several coyotes, foxes, and deer in the neighbourhood but we seldom see them. There is a skunk in the hay barn and a few mice as well, lots of rabbits and birds ( cardinals, bluejays, chickadees, sparrows and starlings ) in the yard at the feeders. My neighbour has squirrels in his trees, sometimes they come here but not often I'm happy to say.

I love the morning after the first snow, You can really see how the yard comes alive during the night. There are tracks large and small going in every direction. Only when it snowes , you are reminded of the many critters that are around you.

We have lots of BIG birds - including owls and hawks and vultures - and we have snakes, anoles, lizards and alligators. We try to keep ALL of them OUT-side! LOL

I have 9 parrots (2 monk parrots, 1 Congo African Grey, 1 senegal conure, 1 Buffon's Macaw, 1 parakeet, 1 Jardin, (my avatar) and 2 Yellowheaded amazons) and 3 very spoiled dogs. 1 is a lab mix, 1 cocker spaniel mixed with we think is a pit bull or bull mastif, and he is really sweet, but dumb as a rock! and a 15 year old chihuahua. Yes, she is old, but healthy. I give her 2 81mg baby asprins a day for her arthritis.

From experience...beware of the geese when they are breeding in early spring. I used to carry a large purse to threaten them. A goose bite really hurts.

I have 2 yorkies and 2 cats inside.

Outside there is alot of wildlife. My hubby even bought me a game camera for Christmas. My kids thought he was crazy...until I showed them the pictures I was getting.

We have lots of coyotes, skunks, coons and fox. Even see the occasional Javelina.

Everyone loves to come for a drink at night

We now live in a subdivision so see very few wild animals other than birds and an occasional squirrel. Inside we have a 15 pound "Garfield" cat named Maui and two 9 month old Morkies named Tilly and Sawyer. They keep us laughing when we aren't trying to keep them out of trouble. Still tend to chew things up and carry available clothing around. This is a far cry from the animals we owned and saw running wild on our farm of 36 years.
