Stewart - The Animal Lover

Stewart has recently convinced us to let him keep a bunny, Chewbaka. He has promised to care for him and has contractually signed his agreement. Better a bunny than a parakeet or fish that he wanted. He tends to be the one concerned with the raising of the animals and likes to pretend he is part of the flock. When Stewart is upset, I can usually find him locked inside the coop area, sitting on an upside down bucket, crying to the animals. It makes him feel better, so that is okay with me.  



Stewart and Max. Max doesn't mess with the chickens after they pecked him a couple of times. In the event he is left behind in the coop (after trying to steal food scraps) he is usually wimpering in the corner somewhere. We have had Max for a year now and he is a great little dog.   
Stewart and Java. We have had Java for 11 years now. She was adopted as a kitten from the SPCA. She was a fiesty cat when she was younger but is remarkably calmer around the boys and has spared them pain of being scratched and bitten. 

Stewart wanted me to bring in two of our bunnies, Chewbaka and Peter, for a class show-and-tell.
He likes to visit with our hens. He tries to be the one getting the eggs, but Jason usually beats him to the punch. We have since re-done our coop area as this setup was a pain to get in and out of.
