The cats

Intro of my cats. This is RW GCH Sunstones Heat of The Moment aka Charmer, he is the one that started it all. I raised him and showed him to his Regional Win. I bred 4 cats in this area to him, and was flown to CA and has bred 3 more. All of the breedings have produced Regional and National Winners. This summer I sold Charmer to a judge in CA, as I didn't have the heart to neuter him to keep him a pet.

Here is a shot of the kittens of Charmer and Summer they are a couple of days old


This is one of the kittens at 4 weeks
(OMG Look at those ears)



Here is Hootie the Ocicat, and Lucy the Yorkie
Hootie is the kitten that I kept from the litter, she is a very buzy "helper".
Lucy was found in a ditch three years ago and given to me.
You see who gets to use the fleece.

Welcome to Cormo 24-7


Welcome to my small farm in Three Rivers, Michigan. I have a slice of heaven on 13 acres. I am surrounded by small acreage farmers so it's a tight knit family neighborhood.

I raise Cormo sheep on my small plot. They are wonderful sheep to be around, as they are quite, calm, and produce "lots" of wonderful fiber that has "no itch". Cormo wool is recommended to use for baby garments.
The Cormo are a medium size sheep that makes them easier to handle, and due to their size, they also eat less then many of the fine wool breeds.


On the farm we also have the usual dogs and cats.

Here is the guard dog and the hunting dog

Luke is a rescue that I got from Karen White of Doberman & Rottweiler Rescue in Terre Haute, IN when he was 12 weeks old.
If you are ever looking Karen can be found in Pet Finders.

Moses is my German Shorthair Pointer. He is a Black and White male that was pick pup from Joy Clay's litter.
He used to be my field trial dog, but he is working out at being a wonderful farm dog.

Here is Luke "helping" my sister, Sharon do some spinning.

Sharon just started spinning within the last 2 months and is already making wonderful yarn. I hate when "newbies" skip the "rope" stage :>).
