What are you getting your pet for xmas AH's

I'll be getting my dog a postman's leg to chew on for crimbo.

He gets about a fortnights worth of chewtastic pleasure out of one, and they're only about €2.50, but I don't tell him that.

This year I had a proper sit-down talk with my dog and my cat and told them how lucky they are that they have a human eejit like myself who spoils them rotten.
Then I tried to tell them how unlucky many others of their sort are, hungry, with no home and/or treated badly.

Not that they were impressed. But I told them in no unclear words that all the money for Christmas presents would go to an animal rescue. And no back talk!

Still not impressed the selfish basterds.

But telling them that otherwise there won't be any leftovers from the roast duck for them did the trick.

And they toddled off, feeling smug doing a good thing this year - and looking forward to the leftovers, I guess.

Loving reading about the spoilt fur babies!!!

Left- overs!

But, not just any left-overs.

Left-overs from a Marks and Spencer's Christmas dinner.

Left-overs lovingly pawed at by humans.

Left-overs that have been left to cool and stagnate for hours.

Left-overs that have been guffawed over and spittle drenched by humans sharing Christmas cracker jokes.

But, not just any Christmas cracker jokes.

Marks and Spencer's Christmas cracker jokes, the most luxurious and expensive crap jokes money can buy.

All served up in an empty tin.

But, not just any empty tin.

It will be the empty tin from a Marks and Spencer's biscuit selection.

A tin that will last until next Christmas, and which will stand up to whatever slop you throw at rover over the coming year.

It's not just any old slops for rover this year, it will be Marks and Spencer's slops.

Because we care!

I picked up 2 new antlers, they last months and are great. I cannot buy anything with a squeaker in it, terry the terrier rips it out with the precision of a surgeon, only barely breaks the material as little as he has to, then his job is done.

Sammy on the other hand, has to chase the squeaker around and around, it ends up under your chair - you have to move! Then terry finally kills the squeaker.

Sammy loves cushions, so I buy cheap ones, and he spends ages pulling out the stuffing.

I went to a market thing yesterday. There was a pet gift stand. The strange lady asked "are we looking for something for our dog today". I politely told her I was just looking. She kept pointing at things. Then picked up a bag of doggy biscuits and said "these are made with gluten free flour and human grade products so you can share them with your dogs". I replied "I think I'll stick with the custard creams". She did not find it in any way funny

Custard creams! Lucky dogs, ours get rich tea, but if it's a special occasion himself splurges on gold grain for them!
