And I always bury them.<br /><br />Did Charlotte's raspy breathing get better? I wonder what happened? You're lucky the other chickens didn't catch it.<br /><br />I love animals, too, and cannot kill anything. I suck at being a farmer. I take bugs outside and set them free. <br /><br />I see so much honesty in the eyes of the raccoon, and see so much happiness in the thoughts of the little deer that play in our yard. I watch the mama deer as they watch over their fawn. I see the hens protecting their chicks, it's amazing to me. Animals never cease to amaze me. Each one of them has thoughts, desires, ideas, even if they are silly little thoughts. When we lose one it always makes me sad...<br /><br />Hugs to you...<br />~Lynn<br /><br />PS - I'm rally confused about hyphens and dashes, en dashes and em dashes now... I never knew these things even existed... I have so much to learn!!!Razzberry Cornerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17644607616585345473noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10685986.post-38965631286026560772011-07-16T16:45:52.771-04:002011-07-16T16:45:52.771-04:00CogDis, they all worm their way into our hearts!

I hate it when we lose our pets.<br /><br />Paula, I'll get stuff done. I hate working to deadline at the last minute and try to plan my time accordingly.

In sickness, she had the best care till the end. She was not just an anonymous chicken, confined to a coop to give eggs. She was known and admired by all of us. And she'll never be forgotten. <br /><br />Time to rest, sweet little bird. You've done good in your life. And you made people happy. Be at peace in your Paradise. And sing a happy song.Claudehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06775039539331403794noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10685986.post-34735872112661820352011-07-13T15:25:45.120-04:002011-07-13T15:25:45.120-04:00RIP Claudia.

Gordon is off giving Claudia a decent burial in our little farm creatures graveyard.<br /><br />TTPT, I really believe we can learn a lot from animals and even insects! And the seniors group is great to work with. They are very enthused, very grateful, and give me no hassles. :) Gordon has done free legal seminars for them too.Knatoleehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03809822081515082096noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10685986.post-65416165110231731472011-07-11T20:45:45.978-04:002011-07-11T20:45:45.978-04:00Poor Claudia.

The only way I can explain it is that I can 'become them' for the moment and feel and understand what they are going through. They are what they are and they are perfect. We have to love that about every animal or there is sadly something lacking in us. May she rest in peace.
