New Fascination
One lingering longing from the trip to Prince Edward Island is a glowing attraction I have developed to the miniature horse. We met one at a 4H display I insisted we all visit. For his part, the Felix was most intrigued by some extraordinarily friendly black and white sheep, but my heart was lost to the hearty little horse.
And having studied the New York City Health Code again, I see that my fantasies of snuggling up with one in my living room aren't so wildly impossible. The only mention of horses at all comes up in article 16 of the forbidden list: "All odd-toed ungulates (Perissodactyla) other than domesticated horses (Equus caballus), including, but not limited to, zebra, rhinoceros and tapir."
It is but a dream, of course, but they are beyond adorable, and it would be so much easier to take the Felix to school (if I can ever get it together to make THAT happen) in a little cart than it would to trundle him into the subway every morning. And judging by the little logo at the top of the curious website for miniature horses on Prince Edward Island, little terriers also love these tiny ungulates.
