I'm Buster and I came to Foal Farm in summer 2008. I wasn't there for long before some people came along and begged for me to come home with them. So I said goodbye to my friends at Foal Farm and off I went.
My new family brought me home and introduced me to their cats. To say I didn't get a warm reception is putting it mildly! Honestly, these cats have no manners whatsoever. But being the brave little guy that I am, I took it all in my stride. There are also some chickens in the garden and they look like great fun. I'm desparate to go and play with them but I'm not allowed. Just because I make them squawk and flap about. Some people have no sense of fun.
The children in the family seem to enjoy having me around. They like to play with my toys although they are not good at sharing, because when I try to play with their toys they take them away.
For some odd reason, everybody likes to get up early in the morning and go for a walk. And they make me come too! I'd much rather stay in bed (especially when it's raining) but they always insist.
All in all, my new family aren't doing too badly and they are gradually coming round to my ways of thinking. They just need to learn that I don't need my own special food (what they eat or what they give the cats will be fine with me), that I don't need my own bed (one of theirs will be fine), and that there really is no need to get up quite so early in the morning. I am taking them to training classes this week so fingers crossed these points will be covered there.
I hope to come back and visit you all at Foal Farm soon.
Lots of love to all my friends there!
