Family We Have Lost......

Like most llama and animal owners we really love our animals! It is hard to lose any member of our family, but unfortunately they just don't live long enough!

 


5/07
Our very first cat we had ever owned in our lives. Maui was a special girl who could be counted on to never miss a meal or chance to remind you she was hungry. Even non cat people loved Maui, she was unique and a character. We really miss her a lot!

*Espera
Peruvian Import Female
ILR#106590
UKxUK

*Espera was a 1993 import who came in the Vicker's importation. She was purchased by Kay Sharpnack and produced for her for 13 years prior to her arrival here. Several of her offspring had done well showing and the most famous being El Fuente (*El Fuerte x *Espera). El Fuente resides at Hinterland and is an ALSA Halter ROM and Champion recipient. His full brother Escondido (owned by Carlos Mendoza) was part of the ALSA Get of Sire group for *El Fuerte that helped him win his title. *Espera was a kind and quiet female that was a pleasure to own! We had hoped to cross her with our male "Eagle" but she died from colic before we could make that dream happen.

 


Missing/Deceased 1/08
Lucy

With the increased space at the new farm, it quickly became apparant that a cat would be a must for rodent control. Lucy was our second feedstore cat. She had one litter of kittens before we got her, she is now spayed. She had proven herself to be a valuable addition to the family. She had been hunting more and more in the woods around our farm and we fear a coyote got her.  

 


Deceased 12/08
Aslan

Aslan was a purebred Anatolian Shepherd who had extensive guarding experience which he shared with our other guardian dog Cher. He came from Mike and Pam Hruby of Arizona. While they had him, he killed a bobcat and a coyote. Aslan weighed in at 165lbs and was all business when it came to guarding. Most of the time you thought Aslan was asleep, but he came quickly to life when needed. We lost Aslan to Bone Cancer, which we have since heard is very common in the Anatolian breed. He is greatly missed around the farm.

 

Deceased 11/10
Shadow

Shadow was Niki's barn cat. She would stand up on her back feet to be pet and purred when she was sheared like a lion every spring. Our Craig's List kitty is missed.
