Double Brook FarmWe thought we should update you on our highly skittish, rarely seen, vampire-like feral cat we adopted a while back. Sir Romeo.

Double Brook FarmHe is a vicious predator, wily mouser and able to fend for himself with just a little help from us throughout the seasons (or shall I say, our continuous new season,: ‘never-ending cold’). But suddenly the dynamic has changed…

Double Brook FarmHe’s taken to us in a big way. Jon says that’s because I feed him hamburger meat from the front doorstep, but I know that it’s because we have a connection. He waits for his treat me at the front door and walks me to my car in the morning.

Double Brook FarmIt’s worth noting that we are not a ‘cat’ family, but this one is pretty darn likeable. And yes, he’s still a supreme mouser, despite the pampering. How long before he comes into the house?

Double Brook FarmIn other news…there are over 250 lambs on the Martin tract and they are happily bonding on the fresh green grass. Sometimes the other animals get a little jealous from all the hubbub. So Brett sent me this picture of the older lambs on pasture near Bayberry Road.
