Meet Älg
![]() |
| Älg is Swedish for Moose. I'm a creative genius. |
I
have thoroughly missed living with animals since I moved to Sweden.
Red is having a wonderful time with Jennifer (sister), Holt (her
fiance), Ally (beagle), and Molly (cat). Yet I have moved to the frigid
north without my furry, 70 lb space heater. So, I adopted Älg.
This has been a lesson in expectation vs. reality.
Expectation
Reality
Never the less, Älg has been a wonderful pet. With any luck he and Red will get along beautifully when I return to America.

| "Beautifully" is a relative term. |
**It
was only after much deliberation that I chose to feed the "Älg an
Apple."
I began with "Cookie," but then remembered I already fed that to the mouse.
The Moose, on the other hand, received a Muffin. But, in the spirit of alliteration,
I settled on an Apple for Älg.**
