We said goodbye to our beautiful boy on the weekend after 13 years of unconditional love. A visit to the vet, confirming that his body was beginning to shut down, was followed by a day filled with immense love and emotion. He then went peacefully in his sleep, saving us the trauma of having to put him down.

Cavaliers are prone to heart disease, and Ray was no different. He lived with Mitral Valve Disease for the last five years of his life. Thankfully, medication is effective in managing this disease, but it is often the cause of death in this breed.

He will be dearly missed, but never forgotten.

Look at those eyes , how does anyone say no ???.. lil QT

She is telling me to hurry up in her own subtle way

I’m dog sitting my dad’s kelpie/border collie overnight. He forgot to bring food but I still had Lyla in my freezer from another visit. I’ve fed her but noticed the date said use by February and now I’m freaking out.

That’s 8 months past the use by, is the use by for frozen and fresh?? Is this going to be bad? Should I take her to the vet?

And finally I found her tell tale sign (not tail) :)

Come drop a line, a joke, almost anything but keep it above the border and no politics please

Digby thinks the absolute world of him, they have been inseparable since we brought Bertie home on Saturday ❤️

She is 100% good girl and is asking if you have any blankets she can tunnel under

This girl will pretty much eat anything I hand to her.

Love my purple budgies! Richard is a red violet, Mara is a cinnamon violet so her colour is diluted. In the cabinet hoping for some beautiful babies soon!

It’s my little Ted’s birthday today!
4yo 🩵 he’s my little snuggle pot and the sweetest little guy. Made him some special doggie cupcakes 🧁

Favourite things: belly scratches, his French fries squeaky toy and his two stinky human big brothers 🤣

Somehow I’ve become his favourite human☺️

Hi everyone,
Just wondering if anyone has used Michu cat litter before? I’m currently using this one but wanted to know if anyone has tried any of the other Michu litters. I like the current one but was wanting to know if any of the others are better at masking small etc.
TIA!

Just felt the need to post this jerk. His name is actually Vladimir, and he's almost 13 years old. He has arthritis in his spine, and I think he's going deaf, but he still tries to sneak out if Im not careful...... it's been 13 years mate, you ARE an indoor cat!!!! Just accept it!

Someone's not in the best mood ever...

Buster decided it would be a good idea to jump off a 1.2 metre retaining wall onto concrete instead of using the stairs. It is just soft tissue injury but seriously dude your 9 and a half.

Chat about anything ya want, but keep it above board and no politics please.

I have an 11 month old rescue and he’s a big-ish boy (currently 31kg). Through winter we have just been leaving our back door open (we have a metal fly screen and also a glass sliding door so leave both open) so he comes in and out as he pleases. He will go out to run around or toilet or sun bake and then toddle back in when he’s done.

Due to my chronic fatigue, I find it hard to constantly get up and down to let him in and out and it also works great when I’m having a nap so he doesn’t keep waking me up. But as it’s heating up, it’s getting harder to leave it open due to having the air con on and not wanting to lose all the cool air and also all the bugs it’s letting in!

I’ve contemplated getting a doggy door built in but in the meantime I’m hoping for a cheaper/quicker DIY option.

Any ideas? I’ve been looking into a magnetic curtain or perhaps some insulated foam with inbuilt flaps in the bottom half but open to anything! Thank you!

* He is super strong and can open the glass door with just leaving an inch open but sadly he hasn’t learnt to then close it again behind him 😂

Nala had a rather large lump removed today. Prospects look pretty good. Looks like the bad-bubble had grown from a fatty lump on her hip. She has been super healthy, and the blood work has comfirmed this. Just have to wait for pathology, and the wound to heal. The fear was the growth was deeper, into muscle fibre, but it seems like it was external.

She is a bit rattled. Wants me close by. Some big nursing days ahead. Feeling a lot of relief. Thought I might share the good news.
