Cela | January 2024

January was a quiet month for Cela, which wasn’t such a bad thing with the cold temperatures… But I suspect Cela would have preferred the option of frolicking in all that snow. She was under leash arrest though, as she was spayed in early January. This...

Yarrow | January 2024
