I let everyone out into the Wide World today, and Jezebel immediately took her family and hid behind the house. I guess she's doesn't like the company we keep around here! The kids learned how to climb stairs!
Their first hike...
It was cool and shady behind the house, but perhaps a bit too cool and shady. The ground was still quite muddy from the previous rains, and I was afraid the kids would get damp and cold.
So I brought them back to the sunny side of the house where Jezebel was treated to apple cores and oranges. I guess she thought the move was worth it because she and her kids stayed there all day. In fact, Delilah left her kids with Jezebel and went off with the herd to graze. So much for motherly responsibilities! Jezebel did her duty and stayed with all four, never venturing out to eat anything herself, so I'm glad she at least got the fruit. I'm proud of Jezebel. She's overprotective of her own kids as usual, but she's changed this year in that she's not being mean to Delilah's babies. Jezebel has been known for being unreasonably mean to babies that weren't hers in the past.
