Name: My name is Starlight.
Where do you live? I live on a chook farm at Mount Cotton. I’m glad I live here as I get absolutely spoilt from all the customers who visit me!
How long have you lived on the farm? I’ve lived on the farm for 16 years. When I first moved here, there were about 10 other horses.
What’s your favourite local walk? Well, now that it’s only me, I like exploring and finding other horsey friends to spend time with. So, my favourite local walk is the one that makes my owner wonder where I am!
Your most treasured toy? I don’t have a most treasured toy, but,
being an Arab, I certainly love prancing around with my tail in the air
and snorting so loudly that everyone can hear me! Everyone thinks
I’m really cute when I do this.
What is your favourite food? Ab-so-lute-ly everything! A friend of mine, Klaus, loves sharing his carrots with me. My owner, Rebecca, recently bought me turmeric and coconut horse treats.
Do you have any funny or embarrassing stories you’d like to share with us? I’d say that one of my funny stories is about when Rebecca and I used to run around the paddock together! I’d run and kick my feet up in the air, farting along the way, hehe. Rebecca made sure to stay clear of me when I did this.
What are you up to today? Well, as I’ve been an escape artist one too many times, I’m currently banished to Rebecca’s aunt’s place…it’s okay though, I’m making friends with the resident horses and goats here.
What do people love most about you? People love me for many reasons, but the most popular one is how friendly I am. My farrier keeps reminding Rebecca how great I am as he doesn’t need a halter to trim my hooves – he can just walk up to me and I’ll stand still.
Thank you for letting me experience my one minute of fame. I hope you’ve enjoyed learning about me.
Lots of neighs,
Starlight
