This is Cactus Flower, a 4 year old Registered Shetland dun and white pinto pony mare. She was part of a herd of 40 (including Shetlands, Minis, Andalusions and crosses) that a woman and her husband owned. They fell on hard times and the horses needed homes quickly. A local rescue helped place a number of them, she kept some and then asked our "supaloma" for help placing several more of them. And that is how little Flower came to live with me. She has supposedly been shown and started being train to drive, but she obviously hadn't been handled in a long time when she came to me. She was very skittish and hard to catch and her feet were a mess. She is now doing much better and is a sassy fat and at times ornery little thing, as all ponies should be. She may be bred to a black and white pony stud. Find out in spring!

Nope, no baby ponies in store for us it would seem, as Miss Cactus has kept her girlish figure and its been nearly a year since I got her.

She is darling. If I had my own place, I'd love something like that in my backyard!

Hahahaha...I was lucky enough to find a landlady who authorized 8-10 cats (I am a rescuer!) Somehow I think she might notice the pony.
