Elliott

Matt and I have made a decision to become foster parents to a furry boy named Elliott the koala. He unfortunately doesn't get to come live with us. He stays in the Ballarat Wildlife Sanctuary where Matt and I first met him a year ago. In fact my first post on this blog was about meeting Elliott. He is a lovely little fellow who loves to cuddle and eat eucalyptus. The foster program isn't as much about taking care of Elliott, he is well taken care of in his home, but helping save his wild koala cousins and their habitat. You can read about the koalas at https://www.savethekoala.com/. There is also lots of info about Logan aka "Frankie" who was born with fantastic blue eyes. This is a rarity in the koala world and he has become quite a popular sight at his home in Dreamworld on the Gold Coast. I am looking forward to going back to Ballarat to visit Elliott soon.
