For all those who love donkeys and for those who asked me for an update on Vera and her newborn daughter : they are both doing great! Vera is still a very protective mother, and the little one is still little enough to be happy with that.
I went there today, even cuddled Vera for a while, but I had the wrong lens with me for a satisfactory shot of them both.
I hope this one will do for now!...

Remember the Dinichi family? They were with us during the last fundraiser and I know they were loved dearly by the whole IBKC community. No surprise -- they were absolutely adorable AND there were a couple of polydactyls in the pack. We love our polys 'round here!
I'm so excited to share updates on three of our four Dinichis today.
First up, handsome Russle "Spud" Dinichi.
Here he is as a young lad.
Here he is now! MY GOODNESS! Look at those giant lobster claws!!
Here's an update from his mama, Lisa!
I have always been intrigued by ginger kitties and it was always my hope to be owned by one, but there was never one available when our family was thinking of adopting a kitten. So, a little over a year ago, a beautiful ginger polydactyl boy popped up on the Itty Bitty Kitty Committee Blog. My family notified me of this and I was strongly encouraged by my hubby and daughter to throw my hat in the ring. I was reluctant, given that we already had a 70-pound dufus dog (Stanley, about 10 years old) and a pair of brother cats (Jack and Louie, about 9 years old) that ruled the roost. I was reluctant to upset the delicate household balance. However, I contacted the IBKC, gave our story, and threw my name into the hat to be potentially owned by this little ginger boy.
I recall with great excitement the email from IBKC saying that we were the chosen family. Russell was tiny (in the neighborhood of 2 pounds), absolutely handsome and charming as could be. The first few days that Russell was home were spent in our “mancave” with hubby who was recovering from surgery. They quickly bonded over the SyFy channel and their mutual love of cuddling on the couch for hours on end. The first meeting between Stanley and Russell resulted in Russell becoming a huge “bottle brush” (it is amazing how big tiny kittens can make themselves!) The first meeting with Jack and Louie didn’t go much better. I truly wondered what we had gotten into. However, Russell grew quickly in confidence and size, and now outweighs one of our older cats by 5 pounds. He is 13 pounds now! Besides his favorite, well-loved sparkle ball, one of our older cats is his best friend. They wrestle and chase each other all over the house. When he’s not playing with Louie, Russell can be found chasing his ball all over the kitchen and living room, using his big mitts to bat the ball away (his soccer skills are just as impressive as you would expect they would be), just so he can pounce on it. When he’s not playing by himself or with the older cats, he can be found suckling on any soft blanket, before finally taking a long, well-deserved nap. Russell’s relationship with Stanley has improved immensely as Russell has matured. While Stanley is still too big for Russell to play with, he will gladly accept any licks that Stanley will give him. Stanley loves his kitten too, and has taught Russell how to beg for food. I have never met a cat so food-motivated, but he will do just about anything for a treat. Thank you, Laurie, for our little ginger baby. We love him!
Next up, we have the adorable Tegan Grace Dinichi. Above is a picture from her adoption day. Below, a nice bunch of pics and an update from her mama, Tanya.
I wanted to share an update on how Zoya (formerly Tegan) is doing. It's hard to believe it's been nearly a year since she has joined our family. She is a little nut and she is the best! She was a very goofy and clumsy kitten and that has not changed - sometimes when she is playing with a toy and trying to kick it with her back legs, she'll kick herself in the head instead. She spends a lot of time doing "the seal" - just laying on her back, looking around. She purrs constantly - just making eye contact with her is enough to get her motor going. She still has the adorable high-pitched squeaky purr she had as a baby.
Her favorite things are playing with us and the older kitties, spending time in the catio, chattering at birds and squirrels, hunting flies (she's very good), and treat time. She doesn't have the best biting manners - in fact her early nickname was Shark Face - but it's getting much better with time and training. She is starting to like snuggling a bit more, with us and the two older kitties. She is very social, and follows us from room to room. Her thumbs have developed well! She still has goofy lobster paws, but we haven't had any issues with the claws, which we keep trimmed. Thank you so much for raising this goofball, we can't imagine life without her!
And last up, we have Cassie Nicole, who now goes by the name "Lucy." Here she is as a tiny thing:
Here she is today!
And an update from her mom, Cathy: Here is the update on Lucy... She is a spunky little (not so little) kitty who has totally adjusted to being a girl. ha ha. Seriously though, she and Holly have fallen into a mutual tolerance and daily "kitties gone wild" chase. Every so often I even find them all curled up together and I consider that GREAT progress. Lucy loves to hang out on the deck and bird watch. She is also quite the foodie and has gotten a bit chunky so we are working on that. She still purrs so loud it sounds like a lawn mower and loves a good tummy rub. I just love having her in my life and I want to thank you for fostering her and socializing her so well. I attached a few photos. The one of kitties in the dryer was well supervised. : O Lucy is in the back, Holly in the front.Dear adopting families, thank you SO much for taking the time from your busy lives to share the stories and photos too! We love your kitties and it is always so wonderful to see your beautiful babies all grown-up and hear how well they are doing. We appreciate you sharing your kittens with us! THANK YOU!

An update on Hetherington. Having scrapped plans for a terminus station, we now have a loop.
Loose track laying to see how it all fits in. On the right is Hetherington station with two through platforms and a bay. A seaside town in the Southeast which has seen better days. On the left is a still unnamed smaller station with two platforms (or one platform and a passing loop) further along the coast. Between them is Hetherington MPD and carriage sidings.

next door neighbour's work progressing down by the river
New gate, gravel surface compressed, concrete in.
I am standing on my ground, this side of the new gate that divides our properties.
Many of the preceding pictures were incidental to walking out to the Euchre Creek overpass replacement project to check on the progress. The Knife River paving crew and it's heavy equipment were gone having repaved from the bridge edges to Highway 101...including (here) the yellow line reflectors. But no yellow line!
I'm making her wing as sturdy as possible, reinforcing with vertical technic beams. It's 6 bricks thick at the base, hopefully I can make a nice and smooth transition as it gets thinner towards the wingtips. I'm in the finish line, I hope she will be done before mid-June.

3 Wochen nach der ersten Aufnahme. Zuerst dachte ich "Sauerei! Diese Schmierfinken haben mein Motiv kaputt gemacht!"
Aber dann...?!

Comments and suggestions or questions are more than welcome
Hey all! I just wanted to let everyone know I am a bit behind with swaps... This week has been quite busy, Mondays are always busy and I had a lot of errands to run, yesterday I spent the entire day with my only girlfriend here in Sweden, and she leaves to England next week, we went browsing for wedding dresses (yay!!!!) so I tried a few on and liked some, but they're all so pricey... it then ended with a lovely double date dinner! =D
Today I had a dentist appointment really early and class at noon. I am going to gather my swaps when I get home from class today (lets hope I dont fall asleep!) and try to mail them out either Thurs. or Friday.
I need to mail out things for:
DeeAnn
Secret Swap Partner
Bel
Ann (penpal)
Also if you read this Vivian, I got your penpal letter! Thank you soo soo much! I will get back to you during this week or next week... maybe longer since writing letters is difficult for me too now, LOL!
Anyways, I want to try and clear out as many swaps as I can before school sets off. Then I only want to focus on like 2-3 swaps per month at a time. Hope this is all okay!!
Anyways, cheers peoples! Message me if you have any questions or issues!
