Blogging Contract - My Pets #4

This time for blogging contract, we had to do a post about our pets. I have about 23 pets (20 being chickens!) so here are my pets!!

Alfred 

Alfred is a dog. He is a collie, with not a lot of hair. He is very cute and is a sit at your feet kind of dog. He can be very timid and was the runt of the litter. When we got him his name was Bruce. His nick names are Alfie, Alf, and Alfredo. He is 1 year old, and is my dog. He sometimes works on the farm but is pretty useless at it!!

Shumba 

Shumba is a black cat. She is very old and thinks she is the queen of the house. She will come and sit on your lap and command you to pat her, if you don't you get some sharp claws in your leg. She is 13 years old. Her name is Shona for lion (Even though she looks nothing like a lion) Our nick names for her are, Shum, and puss.

Nilly

Nilly is a nanny goat. We found her scared at the side of the road with no other goats around. She is a very strong goat and it takes a while to move her. She doesn't like dogs so Alfie can't really go near her. She doesn't like dogs because our past dogs have teased her so she gets a bit grumpy. Nilly is 6 years old. She was named because when we got her she was really silly so we decided to have a name that rhymed with silly, and we got Nilly. 

The rest are chickens, they have no names and have no big story. (Sorry chickens!!!)

Blogging Contract - Visual Mihi #3
