How to make friends and how not to

So Jessy and Dove left at the end of September which provided the perfect opportunity to get both Sofie and T some new friends.


DJ is a lovely gentle old boy who needs lots of tlc just like Tonto. He used to share with Jessy but now she has gone I thought he would be perfect for keeping T company. Unfortunately T disagreed and bullied him mercilessly. After a week they were separated and t is back in solitary confinement.  He is his own worst enemy.

Sofie however has been far more charming. I put her with Samba, a netoriously feisty mare, known for fighting over food, but like Sof needs to be on a constant diet. I was a little worried for Sof but they have instantly become bbfs. I went down yesterday to find them happily sharing a pile of hay and samba cried when I took Sof away. T was sulking next door. Still it is nice for Sof t have a friend,  particularly given the big deciding with t.

The one downside is Sof seems to have found a conspiritor in rug destruction and her second very expensive snuggy hood rug is in pieces.

She is also in season which is driving the boys crazy, especially T who is a particularly randy old man and spent all of yesterday trying to mount her. Sigh.
