Sheila and I want a dog, but can’t afford one - and this place would probably get torn apart even with me being around to train. Our current cat is about 14 years old and is scared of everything except other cats, Sheila and sometimes me. It never goes outside (infact it shows signs of terror whenever the door gets opened) and sometimes seems to show signs it might be lonely. So, as cats cost next to nothing, we decided to go the cat route - as this doesn’t stop us getting a dog when the time/place is right and we have the money.

Probably our new cat, Alaska (the white one).

Our older Cat, Jewel.

There has been a recall in the USA of many different types of petfood after some pets have died from kidney failure and many, many more suffered vomiting. One of Sheila’s cats (which live with her parents) was vomiting recently and it’s really pretty scary to think that this could happen to anybodys pet.

By the way, an animal is considered property, so you cannot sue for the death in the same way you could a human being. I am curious however whether you could sue if you have household insurance? I don’t say this because of money, but because whichever company is responsible should probably be made bankrupt to rid the world of them.

Have a nice day.

I just thought that this story was quite funny really… Well worth a read if you have a dog that likes to drink anti-freeze.
