			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>So &#8211; we got a pretty sweet camera for Christmas and one of the first pictures we were able to take was of our cat Logan. Somehow he found the catnip container and decided he really wanted in. Jenny heard this rustling in our bedroom and when she went down the hall to investigate and found the spare bedroom door wide open.  When she went in to our bedroom, she discovered Logan, on his side gripping something with his paws. Here&#8217;s a picture:</p>

<blockquote><p>That baby burro, Henry calls her Burrito, is wonderful. She comes up to us and lets us touch and pat her all over. And Bashful doesn’t mind at all. But Bashful did not like Smokey coming near her baby. She kept herding Crystal away and stomped her foot at Smokey who didn’t even care. No fear! Randy and family were here yesterday and Crystal let them pet her too. She is so precious.&#8221;</p></blockquote>
<p>Sounds like she&#8217;s a keeper!</p>
