The model horse portion of today's blog entry is rather short - it was a straightforward acquisition - so to make it worth the visit, I'll share another picture of Oliver, who is, much to his dismay, still a Donut.
He has managed to extract himself from the donut twice - once on Thursday morning when I was in a work meeting, and once on Saturday morning when I was sitting right next to him on the couch. Both times, he immediately went for his surgery site and got himself all irritated, so back into the donut he went. I'm thinking it'll be another day or two until I'm fully comfortable letting him out of it.
He's handling it pretty well, though his digestive issues are ongoing. His poop still clears the room, it's not as firm as it should be, and he's gulping a lot before and after he eats. I'm sure the stress of the neuter and donut aren't helping, but his problems predate all that. We're going to try switching him to a Limited Ingredient, filler-free, salmon-based kibble, and see if he does better.
And now for the rainbow pony.
I have loved the Wintersong mold since his original release in plastic in 2007. As a mostly Arab and Stock collector, chonky floofy drafty things really aren't my jam, but Wintersong is the exception. He will definitely be featured in an upcoming Do That Conga post; I have seventeen of them (and hopefully I will add both a matte and glossy Oseberg by the conclusion of this year's BreyerFest!)
For now, here’s #1849, Equidae, a regular run from 2021-2022. The coolest thing about this guy is that I couldn't have gotten him in a more appropriate place - I won him in 2023 from the raffle at Rainbow Rave Live, an LGBTQ+ friendly show that benefits the Trevor Project.
