My name is Iota McHippus. I am a prisoner on a farm where my time on the gorgeous green grass is limited and I get pushed off the apple bowls by two giant bigs who think they own all fruit. I have a Facebook page where THE best people in the whole world help me laugh at my troubles.
I get manhandled, wrangled and abused by The Lady who thinks equine dentists and veterinarians who wield needles that SUCK MY BLOOD are acceptable forms of annual entertainment.
I have many many friends who are themselves equines. From mules to drafts as well as other minis. Together we form a connected web of concern and care across this land and the globe entirely. I also have a friend who is a sheep who thinks he’s a race horse. That’s cool with me. He’s fast.
