Butcher Day

was yesterday. Always a difficult day for me. I did give nice final meals and said my goodbyes. Leaving us in living forms were Maddie,

Peppa,

and George.

It all went smoothly and now there are less mouths to feed, but it is still hard.

    I’m sure that’s very difficult! I don’t know if I could handle it. I know how hard it is to have a beloved dog put down. And you have cared for these animals lovingly.

    I’ll keep you in my thoughts and prayers.

    Hang in there!

      Thanks Jeanne! It is not like a pet dog but I do care for these animals and some more than others. Maddie was such a beautiful creature and so much fun as a calf. And there is a special place in my heart for George. But they never would have lived if it weren’t for their meat and I think they had good lives other than George didn’t seem happy in the end. We think Peppa was bullying him.
