Hello Animal Lover!
All you need to know about caring for your pet.

Sleepy times on the couch. Oscar the cat.

We do couch time like this every morning and evening that I possibly can.

All you need to know about caring for your pet.

Happy hoppy Birthday!

I painted this fun Birthday card for my daughter.

You can send a card to an animal lover too - get it here:

Pax is ready for anything today. Except getting out of bed!

Good morning/afternoon/evening to you all! Happy !

I'm pretty sure Roland has figured out how to switch off my wake up phone alarm. A few days now I've been half awake and as soon as the alarm goes off it stops and I see him walking away from it.

Good night/good day to all of you!

New research from South Korea suggests that interacting with dogs can affect brain activity to make people feel relaxed and improve concentration. For the study, 30 participants met, played with, fed, massaged, groomed, photographed, hugged and walked a four-year-old poodle named Aro, as changes in their brainwaves were measured. Here's more from NBC.

This was parents' cat in 2005, Ibis!

They found him stray and hungry in the carpark of an Ibis hotel. My mum said if he gets into the car, we're taking him home..

*Opens the door*

*Cat hops in*

So that's how they got cat No. 3.

A year later, a cat broke into the basement and had kittens above my dog's bed (cats 4 5 and 6).

(Me, I'm cruising at an altitude of 8 so far, with a 9th hanging out in the garden, trying to move in)

It's again! Post some jokes or funny memes under this hashtag today, and bring lots of smiles to .

Pax is awfully curious about a package that was delivered this morning. Do you think she knows it contains her birthday gifts for later on this month

Who's hungry Pangolin is letting me know she's ready for her second course. She always has to eat her meals in 2 parts, and so she has to let me know when it's time for the next. She's very polite. She is the chattiest of our 3, but quietly understated in her manner.
Good day to all from Pangolin, Zaz, Badger, Steven, and me.

Note the ears, directed towards Finn the Cat.

Last evening the usual visitors arrived early enough for a few photos, and Finn the Cat decided to play with the deer and photo bomb the moment.

Pax is up and scaling the heights today. Nothing's gonna keep her down!

Good morning/afternoon/evening to all our Mastodon friends!

Trigger alert: EC with a cat

No idea how long the folks that maintain have been doing this or if it's new - I've only seen three of these so far over the last three days despite checking apod for years - but I've just noticed they hide an animal picture in the description behind one of the links. Today, check the birds head link!

Edit: it's definitely been happening for at least a month

The rate of pet-related injuries increased over the past decade across all Australian regions

"Australians are around 90 per cent more likely to be attacked by a dog than by a venomous snake or lizard. Approximately 40 per cent of Australian households have a dog, equating to about 5.1 million dogs. Children under five years continue to be at higher risk of injuries to the head and neck than any other age group."


Art for today. Been on a social media fast of late, but popping in to say hi and share my most recent painting, of our sweet bunny, who fell ill last year and had to be put to sleep just before Christmas. He was about 8 years old. I painted his portrait for my daughter, who was particularly devastated by his death. This memorial to him helped a bit, I think.

One of the ways (metaphorically) of thinking about the likely impact of privatising healthcare in the UK is to look at how the market for veterinary services has worked.

Confirming the view of most pet owners I know (including myself) the Competition & Markets Authority has launched an investigation into overcharging for pet healthcare, including medicines.

As the sector is essentially a quasi oligopoly, it will be interesting to see if the CMA demands a break up

This is Daphne's favorite place to wait for treats and scritches.

Trigger alert: EC with cat

Emma was almost 13 years old when she was diagnosed with diabetes. As her owner, father, human, lover, whatever, I took care of her with a carefully timed meal routine instead of free-feeding, administered two insulin shots a day (she did not feel the needle but I did prick my finger several times), kept the water fountain filled against her unquenchable diabetic thirst, and the litter box emptied.
