Suggestions of Food for Itchy Dog - Preferably Dry
Hi :) I realise this is subjective, but am just wondering what others have found good. I'm not necessarily meaning the foods that are marketed for skin issues. Just a good quality food, that you think helped make a difference with your dogs itching, something that I can buy - preferably dry. My girl is having a lot of…

Bought By Many Pet Insurance
Hi everyone - may I ask if anyone has had experience of BBM Pet Insurance.

Personally the Lifetime Regular policy seems to be ideal for…

How much do tropical aquariums cost to keep warm?
My lovely partner has her heart set on making her 29 litre aquarium a tropical one. This looks like she needs a 50w heater. Obviously I appreciate that how often a house heating is on etc all affects cost, but does anyone have a ballpark figure for how much in the UK it might cost to keep one at temperature? I honestly…

Adopted a cat - didn’t realise food was so complicated!
Hi, I adopted a male cat, around 2-3 years old, a few weeks ago. Upon taking him to the vets I was told quite bluntly that the cheap food I was feeding him is the equivalent of mcdonalds and recommended (well, forced) to buy the very pricey Royal Canin Young Male Neutered dry food. I’m not necessarily against spending this…

Blue Cross cat rescue
Hi, I have recently filled in an application for a cat at Blue Cross. The cat is showing as reserved, I would think she'd be quite popular. The site says it can take 48 hours to make contact with the successful applicant. Has anyone else adopted through them? How long was it before you heard? Thanks

Does your vet charge you extra fees on top of the prescription charge?
Last year I needed Advocate flea protection for my cat. I contacted my vet, who asked for the cat to be brought in. They quickly checked the cat was healthy and gave me a prescription for which I paid £8.50 - this seems pretty standard, so all ok. (The cost of the prescription itself has been covered before on the forum,…

Holiday accommodation that accepts cats
My son refuses to contemplate putting our cat into a cattery while we go on holiday. Son has medical issues so we are very reluctant to go away and leave him to look after the cat.
