Llamas, Cats, Dogs and Llama Association AGM

Its been a little while.... so we're due for a bit of a catch up.  Unfortunately I forgot to take my camera with me last weekend when I took Ruby back to visit her mother and sister.  She seemed a little reluctant to play at first, but soon decided to get involved.  She had a fun time and totally wore herself out.  She slept all the way home in the car, AND all through my visit with Scarlett Rose, no pics of that either - next week!!

But there are some pics of the Llama Association (NSW/ACT Branch) AGM.  First we had llama play at Glynda's place, where we practised some handlings skills and got some practical advice on training llamas :)  We had a lot of cute crias to play with, as well as some older bigger/trickier animals.

Jennie was attempting to explain to us, and then show us how to help a llama that doesn't want to be handled/around people in a pen full of llamas, when this one decided that far from pretending not to like people she'd show us how very keen she was to interact :)

Afterwards we all went to Gundaroo for a delicious lunch at the pub :)

You know its cold when..... all four animals are on the same mat in front of the fire!!

Seconds later the blissful scene came to an end when Kiki got too close to Fatty and WWIII broke out!!  Winners and custodians of the mat were the dogs!!

One of Ruby's favourite places to sleep is in Kiki's cage!!

Ruby's ears are coming up.... one at a time!!

This is Red Riding Hood - believe it or not!! - although round here she's more commonly known as Ms Hood.  We are very much hoping that this very round belly is because she is going to produce a cria in the next month and a half to 2 months time ... if not, she better spend some time in the Jenny Craig paddock!!

Orchid, always worth a picture :)
