Every Day is Canada Day!

Sure, I said I'd post them 'tomorrow'...four days ago. And sure, Canada Day was actually almost a week ago. Shouldn't we celebrate our country every day?
Here are the Canada Day photos at last!

This is my absolute favourite, I think. Emily here is our new cockatiel, she is hand trained and super sweet, and co-operative enough to pose for this silly photo.

This was our original set-up, with Snickers posing charmingly in front. However, we decided it wasn't QUITE Canadian enough, so we upgraded...

CANADA! That's Squeak, our skinny pig. I know, a skinny pig! That's the first time we've got one since I started. I believe we sent him over to the Humane Society today.

We had lots of Canadiana (at least, we had lots of cheap Canadiana from a dollar store!). Here's Jenny the guinea pig with a hocky puck (she's sitting on the stick). Jenny was adopted over the weekend!

We also had this 'Canada' bucket and a 'Canada' pencil...because pencils and buckets are very traditional parts of this country. That's Sapphire (one of Ruby's older kids), who was fascinated by the bucket.

Chupa, who's usually a little shy, was one of the most co-operative bunnies. Of course, that was thanks to some apple slices. Ha, usually our bribery isn't so obvious in the photos!

Marigold, one of our babies, was adorable as usual. She's extremely good-natured, considering she was being given away in an underpass.

This isn't the best photo, but it's hilarious. We had this headband with sparkly Canadian flags sticking off it, and we put it on Marie Antoinette. I don't think she was too pleased, but amazingly she stood still for the photo.

And there we go! Happy (very belated) Canada Day!
