I am Mars, without the smallest modicum of antique sense.

The boy next door is a black cat.

 

Hi and WELCOME, Mars!!!! I LOVE your way of 'storytelling'.....you might make quite a writer!!!!! FYI, in case you haven't noticed them, the smiley face above where you type has a load of emojis you can insert when typing or whenever!!! AND just wanted everyone to see your Barnacle in full force!!!!

 

Welcome Mars, I'm a cat man, and I cannot resist to answer at this post.
And for Barnacle, all my regrets to have this Buddha in a so bad place than it fells…

 

What a great introduction. To blend in, I also have a large black cat called Fuji. No idea why. My husband [cat tolerant but they are bringing him around] commented that perhaps that should be spelled Foodji. By the way I think Barnacle was framed.
How about a photo of the goats? This is starting to sound like Facebook. We had goats when I was little. Gorgeous intelligent creatures. Like cats.

 

Comparing cats intelligence with those smelting goats why not with noisy birds, you want to be banned from everywhere…
