    Though not here, as my whippet hunts...

    You know I've wanted a whippet since I moved to the UK. The wife went on a rant about whippets and flat-caps, I looked em up and that was it
    This was 6 months out of date so I've changed it.

    Aw, Leigh....

    You can rehome little pets from the RSPCA. I was surprised how many bunnies, gerbils etc need new homes.

    Though not here, as my whippet hunts...

    All sorts on here for Scotland

    I defo don't have a flatcap, I own a terrier, it needed more exercise but there was no way I could have two over-active terriers in the house so got a whippet as a second dog. Throw ball, terrier chases ball, whippet chases terrier...

    Fab, like a cat indoors, clean, tidy, no smell and sleeps lots. Good fun outdoors and fab to watch run, can do 35 mph.

    Apparently, they are rarely rehomed and I can see why...terrier is more interesting, whippet just couches up to you and is very comforting to own!

    I can't see anything on re at all, never mind pets.

    Do need a new gerbil. Mine died :(

    Dear, us in West Yorkshire are special. Our visits only go on at midnight for some deluded reason. I bet the cookies and the pet shops will go on then! Only thing I can see now is a horrid chicken shop!

    I rush on everytime someone alerts for RE and there is sweet f/a on there each time! Boohiss....

    Having the same issue, looks like they don't do one themselves but advise the use of a number of independent ones.
