My blog has moved!

I’ve moved my blog over to sitatungadispatches.blogspot.com where I will continue to blog about living in Botswana, my goats, my new cats, the river, and all that’s lovely here in the Okavango.

I almost have homes lined up for all the kittens. They are super cute but my house is over run with cats and I long for the day when I have just Salty and her sister Pepper.

Night Calls

For the past few nights I’ve been hearing our resident hyaena across the river.  He starts whooping a few hours after sundown and sometimes continues through the night until just before dawn.  I’m not sure what Salty and the goats think, but they never seem too bothered by it.  I enjoy his calling, all the more because a steadily rising river separates us.

I found this in my local supermarket, Shoprite, yesterday. It’s certainly a different Hermès from what I’m used to but at least their target markets don’t cross.

Another cute kitten moment!

More kitten photos. I took them all to Rob the vet today for their shots. They are so cute I can’t stand it!

Salty and her kittens. They are totally cute jumping around my house and chasing each other all over!
