Well, this didn’t happen at Cabin Creek Acres itself, but the Web Guy has to share.

Cajun is Web Guy’s black cat, and she’s spoiled rotten. She turns up her nose to lots of things, so it’s up to WG to keep the cupboards stocked with only the best. And, she has a schedule. If you’re not up at 5:30am to feed her, she’ll wake you up. And dinner is at 5:00pm. On the dot.

So, WG was on a mission over the last few days to get Cajun a special treat - some Great Live Catnip, especially since she turns up her nose at the dried.

Long story short - WG finds the only mostly-live catnip plant at the local nursery (who was selling half-dead plants for just 30% off). Seven dollars and a pumpkin coffee from Dunkin Donuts later, Cajun had her treat. Yum!

She purred, she chewed, she drooled and eventually rolled over into a stupor.



After she had her fill, WG, following the advice of the lady who sells the dying plants, the catnip was planted beside nine other plants in the pitiful garden, 4 pretty dead sticks, and five droopy ones sticking out of the ground. Cajun was sure to have plenty of catnip for the rest of the season.

The next day, Cajun wanted to be let outside. Answering her call, WG opened the door and she ran out onto the patio. Ah, a snap of catnip would make the perfect day for this kitty.

Across the yard, the sticks drooped in the pitiful garden. They weeped over a bare bundle of twigs. It was all that remained of the catnip plant.

We can only imagine that the neighborhood strays made their way into the yard and partied hearty all night long, meowing “Dude, don’t harsh my buzz.”

As for Cajun? She hasn’t noticed. Yet.

Mork the goat left Cabin Creek Acres recently for a new home.

Turns out, some fans of our little farm decided to build their own farm and they needed some special friends to be the first to inhabit the specially built log barn. So, some of our friends hit the road, and now live with them!

The new farm has chickens, a little dog, a cat or two, Mork the goat, his girlfriend Mindy, and a batch o’ bunnies. Here’s a note from the new farm:

We are just loving Mork! He’s really a great little guy! He’s adjusted pretty well to his new home and is now comfortable enough to let everyone rub his head & pet him, he especially loves Paul.. SO cute! He’s the perfect addition to our family. We even found him a year old Nigerian dwarf doe named Mindy! They love each other, they just follow each other around all day and it was adorable to watch them snuggle last night! We've attached some pictures so you can see his new house and girlfriend. We also added some of the bunnies! We named the orange one Chewy and the white one Star. They love their new sisters Sara and Carrot!
 
Again thank you so much!
