Cody, ready to go to bed?
Having an alpaca in the house...
It's a mess but it's a happy mess.
You're a messy girl.
When Cody was born she was very small.
She was about a third of the size of a normal baby alpaca.
I brought her inside just to keep her safe.
It's kind of like having a big dog.
The vet had suggested she moved inside indefinitely so I could keep an eye on her.
If they'll take the bottle, then I think I've got the fighting spirit.
They have a really good shot at making it.
And as little as Cody was, she took that first time like a champ.
That's when I knew that I had somebody special.
She's 4 years old now, she's still living inside.
There, Cody!
She's loved her bottles ever since.
Get bottles.
They must be warmed.
Kind of like coffee.
It's her coffee.
Not just warm she likes hot coffee, but her own concoction.
She gets a digestive yeast and vitamins and things like that.
Where's the next one?
Is that delicious?
Cody want treats?
We could get treats for Cody.
One of her favorite words is treats.
Where should we put the treats?
Should I move with the treats faster?
She does eat hay now.
Where's the treats?
But her absolute favorite are kitty treats.
Poor Cody.
Where's Cody's treats?
Let's do this.
Basically cat food, dried cat food.
Just a little handful sprinkled into the hay, she goes nuts.
It's her favorite thing ever.
Oh hurray!
Delicious.
Cody, are you a sleepy girl?
Bedtime is a big deal.
Is it bedtime?
Who's a sleepy face?
She just settles right in and she gets the sleepiest eyes.
Her eyes just gets so heavy.
And I tell her night-night.
She loves bedtime, but she fights sleeping.
Did that kitty wake you up?
The special thing she gets at night are her apples.
Should we go put them in your hay?
That's her special treat for bedtime.
You don't even want to wait that long.
Do you?
Maybe Cody's favorite treat is apples.
Cody, are you all snuggled in ready for bed?
She likes being inside.
It's her safe spot and it's her home.
She's a unique, little individual.
Cody's dreaming of bottles.
You going to be a pretty princess in your new coat?
I have a friend of mine making the coat for her.
Cody has become a little sensitive to people she doesn't know.
It'll be interesting to see, doing some fittings on her.
Nobody touches the princess, but Mama.
