Re-homing rabbits...

Operation costs
One of my cats (not the one I discussed rehoming) has been hit by a car tonight and is in the emergency vet hospital. He will need an operation to repair his broken jaw (broken in 3 places). Although he is insured we need to pay the bill upfront and I wondered if anyone could give me a rough idea of the cost. We will find…

Signing over Cat
We have four cats and one of them has been living with our lovely neighbour for the last year and only pops in to our house occasionally. We have discussed with her signing over our cat so she is her legal owner. Our neighbour is keen for this to happen as are we but I just wondered how we go about it so that it is clear…

Dog health scare
Hi All Just wanted to share this with you. I was sitting here browsing the site, Dh at work, DD at school, so it's just me and the boys (a lab/collie cross age 12, and a dalmatian age 2) The Dally is doing his usual job of acting as my footwarmer, and the lab is laying in his bed, snoring away. Then I looked over, and he…

Killed a cat this morning.
Country road, wife driving at around 50mph and it just ran straight across in front of the car. Long straight road with no other car on the horizon. In fact no other car went past for about ten minutes. It was killed instantly with a head wound so I know it didn't suffer. I moved its body to the verge so it wouldn't get…

Animal Friends Pet Insurance are misleading
I recently lost my Dog and have had an appalling service from Animal Friends Pet Insurance. Firstly the claim has taken 4, yes 4 months to resolve and now they are wriggling on a point in law. They have twice underpaid us during the process and each time stated it was an admin error (yeah, I'm sure). They sent the life…

Hi everyone, Right the story is my mum has started feeding a tabby tomcat on her doorstep for the last few weeks. I told her that she shouldn't as its probably someones pet and you don't want to lure it away from its home. However I popped over yesterday and it was again sitting on her doorstep.

Not sure what to do - dog is snapping.
I have a 9 month old male shih tzu. He is a lovely dog and generally well behaved. I've had him from a pup and he has been well socialised and attended doggy training. Recently he seems to have developed a possessive streak about certain items. Mainly pigs ears, treats and anything he deems 'great' at a specific moment in…

Any idea where I can buy a budgie around the Luton area?
My daughter really wants a female budgie to go with her male that she got a while ago. We live in Luton, but I don't know where I can go around here. The pet shop where she got the first one has lots of young birds, but too early to tell if they are male or female. I tried the Coi Carp centre. They have some females, but…
