I am absolutely obsessed with these things. Any of my followers collect Windstone Editions?

So we were bad today and came home with 2 new babies, bringing our current woozle count to 9 @_@ We stopped by Petco just to look and MAYBE come home with 1, but there were only 2 left and my husband didn't want to leave the other by himself. Happy St. Patricks Day!!

Future lifesize project. Now just gotta save up for the form!

So I was bad, and got this guy. I think I’m on a black coyote streak. This is my 3rd one this year already. Part of me wants to say he’s part dog due to the shape of his head, the look of the tail and the white on the front of his mouth, though it could also be that he was just hung upsidedown for a while, which creates what’s called “waterhead” (all the blood and fluid collects in the head and creates a bloated look). Anyway, I have lifesize plans for this boy.

Finally have my own personal wolf (the huge, darker guy). I think I will attempt a life size on this guy, as huge as he is (86" nose to tail tip). After the black wolf I had been stalking on hide&fur vanished, I decided to buckle down and get this one from a guy. Definitely cheaper, and a lot prettier imo! Second black wolf has already been claimed.

Black/Jet cross mink female #2.

Was hoping for a huge male Jet Cross to life size mount with one of my other 2 smaller black cross females (one normal, one jet) but seems I’m just destined to get the small females lol I do love this girls face tho, so she’s a keeper.

2 Hybrid (Vulpes vulpes X Vulpes lagopus) foxes; Blue Frost and Golden Island

Real pretty female dark silver/black AL coyote I got in today. This girl is actually pretty unique to me. She has a black back, but silvery sides, like if you monochromed a german shepherd. All other black/silver coyotes I’ve gotten have always been pretty uniform in color. She also has a huge white chest patch, white groin and 2 white back feet!

It's a busy day here at the shop. Got in a large shipment of raw furs. Some will be available for sale and a couple are personals.

I can’t believe I forgot to share this girl with you all over here! This is Jo-Jo. She was my Christmas gift this past Christmas. Story time! For about a week I had been looking at a specific cat on Petfinder. Her name was Nubbie, and she was a beautiful 8 month old, calico/tabby, domestic shorthair/manx mix so she had a nub tail. Christmas Eve morning was the day we were going to drive the 2 hour trip to get her from the shelter she was at. Well, I called that morning just to make sure she was still there before we headed out. I was put on hold, and then was told she had been adopted the day before. My heart sank and shattered on the floor. So my husband suggested we look around at the Petsmarts/Petcos and see if any of their shelter cats catch my eye. Reluctantly I agreed, still massively upset that the cat I fell in love with and was willing to travel 2 hours for was gone. So we stop at our nearest Petsmart, and they had quite the kitten/cat selection. I went up to the display window, and saw a few brown/grey tabbys, a black cat, a few tuxedos...then this little 1 year old black and orange tortioseshell girl hunched in the very top corner platform. Now, my heart was still set on finding a Calico at this point... until the volunteer informed me that the little tortie had a nub tail. What are the odds...... So I was led into the back room, where he got her out for me to interact with. Poor girl had JUST been brought to the store that morning from the spca, so needless to say she was a little scared. Once I had her on my lap and started petting her, she’d roll around and purr and love all the attention. There was something about her. I wanted to take her home. I wanted to spoil her. Despite there being a totally cute 4 month old kitten bouncing around in the back room, I wanted this little black and orange mottled creature with piercing gold eyes. So I  made my decision, and we filled out all the paperwork. We got her home and all set up, and for a few days she just wanted to hide under our bed during the daytime and only come out when we turned the lights out. She came around rather quickly, and now she’s FAR from that scared little hunched ball of fur at Petsmart. She’s CONSTANTLY begging for attention, wants to explore and LOVES to play. Beneath the bed is no longer a hangout spot for her. She’s a year old, but she’s still mostly kitten lol Sorry for the long story! I just wanted to share in massive detail (I’m an excited retard, sorry lol)

Another fun day of skinning stuff with the husband <3 Finally skinned my prized fennec fox after having it sit in the freezer for a few years.

[skinnedfawx]

Look who came today! I’m so stoked. He’s so gorgeous in person. I’m so happy to finally have my grail coyote in my hands after 5+ years of trying to snatch one.

[skinnedfawx]

Taught my husband how to skin today so he can start helping me with my work. He was really good about not cutting any holes. He did the calico spotted bunny at the bottom. Stupid me rushed on the black and white and ended up ripping the tail off x.x

Great learning experience for him, and 3 less whole bodies taking up my freezer lol

After over 5 years of looking and missing out on the very few previous ones, I am finally getting my dream coyote!

Beautiful black and tan coyote.

I’m actually unsure if these are coydogs, or if it’s just a mutation where the melanin only affects those color areas of the coyote.

Hoping to get him next week. I will be lifesizing this beauty.
