Can I feed my cats tins of dog food?
Hi all, I'm just wondering if any of you have any experience of trying your cats with dog food? I'm asking as my two monkeys only seem to like the orange tins of Butchers cat food, but it is increasingly hard to get where I am. However Butchers dog food seems to be quite easy to get hold of. Is there much difference…

Theresa Tortoise
I was privileged to own Theresa from February last year. She was an unsolicited gift from a friend. However, reluctantly I rehomed her in October as I was not at all confident about hibernating her and couldn't bear the thought of her dying during hibernation, as many tortoises do, and would have worried all winter. I…

Pet insurance with pet wellness?
I know this is available in the US, but not sure in the UK that I've found but does anyone know of any pet insurance that also does pet wellness? I.e. routine check-ups, vaccinations, worming and flea - maybe even have a spaying/neutering option? It seems that this would be sensible - to me - that an insurance wants to…

Hi all, I have six cats who now live indoors with a catio. With a refuse collection every other week. A you can imagine, I've had to be creative about the litter trays. At first, I was using the flush-able substrate recommended on here by many (Oko, World's Best ???? ) but I discovered that putting cat poo in the sewers is…

Toilet training a puppy - help needed
We have just got a puppy (8.5 weeks old now) and he is a lovely little boy except for the toilet training. When we got him we were told he was using the puppy pads and wasn't having any accidents (I don't think this was a fib). However since we've got him home he is just having accidents everywhere (wees and poos) and I am…

My dog just bit someone
I am absolutely mortified. My 5 year old dog with a normally beautiful temperament just went to attack a dog in the park, and accidentally bit the owner's arm and broke the skin slightly. I said "I'm so sorry, I don't really know what to do. What would you like me to do?" to which she replied, "don't worry about it, it's…

Petplan renewal increase
I went from paying £21 to now paying £30 per month for a 4 year old indoor cat with no previous or current health problems. It just seems a bit much to me? Would you suggest switching to someone else? Lifetime cover with “Healthy Pets” is quoting me £4.37...
