    In fairness MM terriers are basically a little furry bag of cocaine on legs. How they put up with people I'll never know. :D

    Rejoice in the awareness of feeling stupid, for that’s how you end up learning new things. If you’re not aware you’re stupid, you probably are.

    In order of appearance. Esmae, Mr C & Hermoine and then Ravel who is a neighbourhood pooch that sometimes follows us home. We do have another guinea pig named Bea but she was snoozing elsewhere.

    Sorry about that wrote: »
    The pets are lovely, but the real thrill is getting a peep into people's houses. The full room views are best, but even a couch is worth a look.

    ...and we can judge people here even more from afar.

    The two adopted dogs in post 2 a year later.
    The two girls are now about 14, and on their "holidays" in Co Wexford until tomorrow.

    He's a stunner. He also looks like he should be smoking a pipe.

    Really is gorgeous. And in typical cat fashion is completely immobilising your right arm! Cats are so wonderfully selfish.

    Ok I'm really sorry if I'm spamming this thread, animals are my thing :o

    If any folks are near enough to the botanic gardens and feeling cooped up, we had a fantastic afternoon there today. My daughter was jumped on by a squirrel, son was followed by a couple of ducks for his chocolate chip hobnob, and we spotted one of the two turtles that live in the pond. The greenhouses are closed but it's still a really nice place to visit.

    Crikey Ads by Google, that is one stunning black beauty.

    Male or female? Looks like a female with those Cleopatra eyes but male cats can look feminine too. They sometimes look like they're wearing eyeliner. :D

    Male. Tried twice to have him spayed but they couldn't find his balls. Poor little fella.

    No furry creatures here to cheer me up at the moment unfortunately after my cat Buffy passed away just before Christmas, and now isn't a good time to be introducing a new pet to the home I think. However here is a gorgeous photo of her I took about a year before she passed at the ripe old age of 18. Most people don't believe she was 17 in that photo, she still looks just like she did when she was a kitten.

    Here's Butty, another of our cats, she self isolates every day on her blanket on this bed, and allows nothing else into the room, sleeps all day, and heads out at night to do cat stuff

    Lovely girl and a credit to you. My oldest is 16.

    When I lost my dog AND one of my cats the same weekend, although I had two cats left, my wise family ordered me to " go and get three rescue cats" Which I did. and their huge need eased my pain. They are on my photos here; Selkie, Bella and Oliver.
