rooster tilly looks adorable, what a lovely picture

[hilaryfrances]

:Dplease please stop missing your cats so much and give a home to another. Lots of pudds are desperate for new mums and dads, you cannot replace an animal but you can get to love another as much. Just think that cat shaped hole in your life can soon be filled with a purring ball of love

[Mungypup]

Aww, I like the rat in bed. Soooo cute.

[mazbck]

You're not wrong there Hils... when Vienna (1) was killed I was devastated and it seemed to take forever to get used to her not being around.. but as soon a Vienna (2) and Penny came on the scene it took some of the hurt away.. Vi (2) is nothing like Vi (1) who was what I would call a sophisticated cat... Vi (2) is noisy, daft and totally lacking in animal cunning... some would say SEN Penny is like the older sister who puts up with the young ones mistakes and looks after her.

 

In fact they are so like my daughters it's incredible..

DX they are soooooo cute!

 

I want to get a few once George has gone to ratty heaven. Not for a while though, he is only 1 1/2, we want more but I dont think you can add more this long after he was bought.

I have always had males as they seem more docile, and easier to handle. George has the run of the house, comes to you when you call him. I would love him to have a friend, but would be scared of him hurting another one, and we want NO babies lol

Rooster... are they all as placid as they look?..

[pompeyfaith]

Here is another off Ella as you can see she is a Pompey fan too

 

 

[pompeyfaith]

And as a wee pup

 

[pompeyfaith]

And a worn out pup lol

Rooster... are they all as placid as they look?..

All except the Yorkie. He's a right little sod! He has a fervent dislike of the Staffy, and growls and threatens the Staffy. Problem is that he hasn't got the muscle of the Staffy. The last encounter resulted in the Yorkie bleeding profusely from the neck. We thought we were going to lose him.

 

Big, Big vet's bill!

[pompeyfaith]

Big, Big vet's bill!

 

But im sure you will agree it was worth every penny.

oooh I really want another dog after seeing all these pictures ... I can't get one as I work full time so have to settle for walking and minding mums.

 

My dog had to be put down about 10 year ago, aged 17. He was some sort of spanielish cross and was really cute - looked like Bambi. His best mate was my brother's rottweiler - that was a big soft thing but did manage to knock me unconscious once when the two dogs were playing chase on their walk and my dog run through my legs and the rottweiler tried to follow but instead ran headfirst into my legs and I flew over the dog and managed to land on the 5 ft wide concrete path on the field. Came round to hear my brother panicking.

 

Ached for days, must have been the impact of the splat!

 

Rottweilers need lots of braking distance - the HGV's of the dog world I think.

[Rooster-UK]

But im sure you will agree it was worth every penny.

Yes, but as I'm out of work and my Wife is retired, we could have done without that bill.

Ouch... perhaps whilst you're unemployed you could study to be a vet..

[Jan4a]

Is there a PDSA in your area? There is one in Manchester that just ask for donations from pensioners and people on benefits. They helped a lady who lives near me when her Yorkie was injured by another dog. It is quite a distance from us though (don't actually live in manchester).

 

It is a shame they can't take on paying clients - their equipment/expertise is better than a lot of vets' practices and I'd rather they made a profit out of me/my insurance when the cats are ill than the vet.

[mazbck]

The Blue Cross also do a scheme that they will pay part of a vet's bills if you are on certain benefits if your pet needs emergency treatment.

[pompeyfaith]

I have a policy with petplan worth every penny too

 

PF

[hilaryfrances]

yes I think petplan is one of the better ones, a relation of my son in laws has Direct Line, they have just had to pay £600 because the problem their dog had with its ear was an illness it had had previously, many years previously

[pompeyfaith]

ouch, touch wood i have not had to use the policy in the 5 yrs ive been paying it but i will still renew every yr because u never know what is around the corner

[hilaryfrances]

yes you are right, my previous dog was not insured and had everything a dog can get!

 

Present dog been insured from the begining, never made a claim in elven and a half years!
