Crackle - 8-9-13In this 14-minute video captured by a Lily Fan, Lucky and Holly are back lying on their sides nose to nose as yesterday. Both are out of their beds, lying together in neutral territory. But this time instead of the prolonged gentle, affectionate nips, they got up and entered into a very prolonged play session. It’s in the middle of the night when darkness and the IR light gives the best viewing. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q4ABq0-2avI
This picture of Crackle is one we’re considering for the upper wall to illustrate differences in coat color. Born in 2004 to a non-clan mother (Ginger), he was 9 when this picture was taken on August 9, 2013. He was last seen September 9 this past fall, so we are hopeful he survived the hunting season. We are looking forward to seeing him this year as a 12-year-old.
Thank you for all you do.
