Looks

Marietta
Muscovie ... Do YOU think she's beautiful?
photo compliments of Katie Terrill
We
do !!!! We love out muscovies. Lots of folks point at them and say
uuugggghhhh how ugly ..... it hurts
their feelings. We think they're just
as beautiful as all the other kinds of ducks.

gotz a sadz

Beauty
wants to be the next Spokes Dog ....
but she doesn't think the other animals will approve her as a Refuge
Ambassador ..... they think she does
her job of security very very well ....
sometimes a little too well .....
and she just might not be so friendly to all the new people she'd meet
at schools and other humane educational events she would have to go to as
Spokes Dog.
Pigeons
love roosting up in the rafters in their aviary.

I've
told you how every animal must be checked on twice every day. And that means the one who use high escape
tactics too. Hoomans must climb up and
check on everybody. And even take the
eggs out of the nests up on the rafters.
Nobody is allowed to replicate at Rikki's. Too many animals are in need of homes, it's not right to create
more.

All
the supports in here need to be painted to look like trees .... wouldn't that be awesome??? Willing to give your artistic mind a
try? It doesn't have to be perfect ....
it just has to be fun !!!
Albert
Adventure Monkey came out today for something really cool and special !!!!
photo compliments of Albert Adventure Monkey
It
was Birthday Party time ..... a young
lady opted for a tour of Rikki's Birthday Party and brought her friends and
donations !!!! Albert and Paul were
the Rikkites who assisted them .....
But
uh oh ..... Albert locked his camera
and his keys in the car before leaving .....
and nobody could get it open .....
so he hitched a ride home and will come back tomorrow ..... so I'm sorry .... no birthday pictures today !!!!
Look
Aunt Nora ... Uncle Paul ... you don't have to stop painting when you run out
of fence !!!!
Ron
came out to work today
photo compliments of Ron Herfurth
and
he painted the gate posts and put on new copper toppers !!!! Isn't it purrty?
Look
where we'll be tomorrow !!!
Boomer
will be there explaining why he should Spokes Dog of Rikki's Refuge .... come out and see how he does ... tell me
what you think.
photo compliments of Amy Griffin
Does
he deserve the job? But please, even if
he does get hot on this expected to be cool day ... please don't eat him. Friends don't eat friends.
Love,
Opie
Thank
YOU for making it all possible !
You know the highlights, but do you ever wonder what happens
every day, even ordinary days, at Rikki's Refuge? Have you thought of starting a sanctuary and wonder what it's
REALLY like? Ever wonder what those
with the animals all day every day see and think? Follow my diary as I tell you about daily happenings and show you
a dozen or so photos taken during the day!
You'll see a whole new perspective of the Refuge .... See it ... Live it .... BE a part of the
Rikki's Family .... get to know ALL the animals on a first name basis !!!! Keep up with happenings every day of the
year at RikkisRefuge.BlogSpot.com ...
