it's a real zoo around here

This is Barry. He's taken to hanging out on our deck. Isn't he cute? Wyn and I really want to pull on his big fuzzy tail. And Riley? She wants to eat him up. Literally. They tangled last night after Dad took her for a walk (which explains ol' Barry's position in the above photo). Don't be scared, Barry! We'll protect you.
