Was in my local today and a couple who sometimes turn up in there had the most adorable Labrador retriever with them. 8 months old called Max- utter sweetheart. They then left minus Max.....turns out he was a Xmas present for someone in the family without checking person had time for a dog or even...

I haven't seen any posts from Christina for a week, anyone know if she is ok? Sharon

Boyfie insisted on going out. I should have have said no as I am now up at 4 a.m waiting for him to come in. Lucky I dont have to go to work. Sometimes he really pushes his luck. If he isn't in half an hour he'll have to sleep in the conservatory, which is cold. 4.30 am is enough to stay up.I...

I was home yesterday. I'm at our store Tues - Sat. Samwsie and Lucy were acting strange this weekend. They knew something was wrong. Cinnamon wasn't there. Yesterday they got extra attention from me. By last night they were more like themselves. I had been trying to keep them from bothering...

I just got off the phone with the vet. We are going the make the best decision for Cinnamon and send her to the bridge. We will go this afternoon to say goodbye to her. Ann

Tommorrow, January 6th, marks 12 years since this beautiful, persistent, insistent cat *demanded* I let her inside. Most of you know the tale. It was a bitterly cold winter afternoon when this grey cat started crying at my back door. And yes, I tried to shoo her away. (Silly me! But I'd...

Well, had to do a reasonably decent clean up, in preparation of the exterminators being here tomorrow (Who, me, putting it off until nearly the last minute?). This did involve some vacuuming. Now, Apache has been with us nearly a whole year. The reason I mention this, is that when I started up...

I've got my debit card back in 2 days and in 3 the first of my credit cards surfaced but Dave hasn't seen his new debit card so decided to call the bank (and also complain about the guy) Guess what? His bank have no record of any request to stop the card as far as they are concerned it's still...

While at the store yesterday (not my regular grocery store) I saw a bag of large frozen prawns/shrimp. Turned the bag over, sure enough, "Product of Thailand". Needless to say I didn't buy them. Jill

Peter took her to the vet this morning. They are keeping her for a few days. One thing they found is she is dehydrated and they are giving her fluids. They are also running some tests. The vet will call us this afternoon. The thing I like about this vet's office is it is also an emergency...

The cat santuary on Parliament Hill is going to close as the remaining cats have all been adopted. This is good news. http://ottawa.ctvnews.ca/cats-on-the-hill-heading-to-new-homes-1.1101159

Cinnamon hasn't been feeling well the past few days. She did vomit some and not eating much. She is almost 18 years old and has other medical issues. Even tho she does not go out the winters are hard for her. This morning she did come to DH for a treat as he was getting his lunch ready before...

Amber has a step stool next to my bed so she can get up there easily. This morning she got off the bed and then decided she wanted to get back up. She was at the other end from the stool. For a minute, she stood there and I told her "you can't jump up". Then SHE DID - with no apparent...
