    boyfriend is allergic to cats so unfortunately we cannot have them in the house. Though to my

    excitement he surprised me with these two that are going to be apart of our family! Our plan is to get them a whole safe set up in the

    garage so that they can be kept warm and comfortable at night. The orange baby is a little more

    friendly than the grey baby but I will continue to persuade them with more of the squeezable treats.

     They are both boys and we plan to get them neutered when of age!

  • Farm life gives us so much that we can't experience in other settings. There's such a beautiful stillness and staidness to the life of barn life. The rural atmosphere feels like a breath of fresh air, the silence can contain you and calm you in ways you didn't know you needed. Our nervous systems are always in hyperdrive from the constant stimulation we experience on a daily basis. Maybe we weren't supposed to work in front of a screen 8 hours a day, 5 days a week. Maybe we weren't supposed to commute through traffic and people and busy streets and traffic lights. Maybe we weren't supposed to be indulging in screentime in our off time at all hours of the day when we're “resting.” The farm life brings us something vestigial and forgotten, so here's to the barn kittens.
