...Heh... she's a quarter horse. :~) No Arab outbursts from her!

Oooooh, I got her mixed up with the white horse that Becky rode then. Sorry 'bout that. Sounds like she'll be fine then if he just quits feeding her all that high-powered stuff.

Right... We were initially going to borrow Kat for Becky... knowing she’d be more at home on a QH, but Kat hurt her shoulder in some kind of pasture play slip a week before Becky was coming and we borrowed Mia the Arab instead.

Bob thinks Kat’s not been an easy keeper over the winter and kept feeding her more to put weight on her. I think he’s feeding alfalfa and senior feed. I know that’s way more than Tiff ever fed her so I’m not sure what was going on there.

When I was down last time, she did seem to be feeling really good, ripping around the pasture when we brought the new horse over. But I told Bob she didn’t need to gain anything. She’s lean, but she should be kept lean, she has little tiny feet and probably some arthritis, keeping her light is good for her.
