  1. We still have four puppies from our large litter living at home. With each departure, it gets more difficult to see them go. Fortunately, Teal’s new best buddy, Wendell the Whippet fell for her immediately.

  8. Night time, I'm in the middle of some writing. Castorp comes out of his den, he shakes himself up, then settles on the rug next to me. He sits there for a while, perfectly still. Then he gets up again and moves back into his den.

    Oh that trust can be so complete and unpolluted.

  9. Almost missed #Mondog again. Our 12-week old puppies are starting to head off to their new homes. Bittersweet, but necessary.

    Working in the night, writing my paper. Castorp calls me. I step over to his den, he stretches his head out and puts it into my open hand, ever so trusting. I gently scratch his forehead, he closes his eyes like a cat. I tell him about my worries, and that he is a good boy. He gets out and shakes himself up, as if he is wet from the rain and must shake out the rain. He does his night visit to the garden. When he is back, he gets another cuddle and goes back into his den to sleep. All is well. I go back to my work. What would we do without each other.

    We treasure spiders in our house, they are our insect police. Our daughters don't quite see it that way. When N found a large spider in her room, she got frightened and insisted on setting up a mattress and her duvets in the living room, to sleep downstairs for a few nights.

    Castorp my whippet is not allowed in our upstairs bedrooms, but this was his chance to share a bed with one of his family. He settled proudly in the centre of the improvised bed and declared it his own. N could just about squeeze in next to him. She loved it, of course.

    Castorp looked at us half defiantly, half accusingly. Can't you see that this is where I belong, snuggling up with my sister? he said. Why don't you let me do this always? Things are so easy, why don't you humans understand how simple it is to live well? Just stop being stuffy and difficult.

  13. On Saturday @Jamies and I drove down to Exeter for a meet & greet for Foster Boy Basil. All went well and he's now off on trial with his (hopefully) furever family, including a chocolate Labrador (which we said when he first arrived was probably exactly what he needed!)

    On the way back through Sydney we picked up Betsy, who is Basil's littermate and even cuter! She's a beautiful, friendly, energetic young girl who is sure to bring plenty of fun and excitement to her furever family.

    Betsy has met our resident cats and has shown no real interest in them (yay!)

    Betsy has been in foster care for a few weeks already (we're taking over from another foster carer), so her profile is already up and she is available for adoption.

    Take a look at her petrescue profile! Feel free to reach out to me directly if you have any questions.
