That pup would be very hard to say no to.

When a cat rolls over and shows it’s tummy, it’s a sign it trusts you, and not an invitation to scratch it’s tummy …

Actually it depends upon the cat, out of my three Disa loves a good belly rub when in the right mood, Edda adores a good belly rub anytime any where, and Frieda would do if she wasn’t so ticklish and giggly with five claw crab-grab auto-response 
Morpheus always loved a darn good belly rub too, “Bring it on, Baby”!

Many years ago we lived in what was pretty much ‘The last house in Staines’. There was a nice stretch of unbuilt on meadow beyond and before the M25 in the distance, which we would walk through if the weather was fine, with our cats wandering along beside us, untethered’. Lovely days

Brisket,the boarder, I have to accept is semi feral. The streets were prefered to home life. I seem now to be accepted as the best available option as her old age approaches.
Not to be trusted brushing or stroking ( you can scratch my head tho) unless substantial welders gloves available.
It’s not malign she was never properly socialised at an early age.
Her claws and my paper thin, old skin with prominent veins are not well matched.
We do like our new chair though………’Perhaps you could find somewhere else for your colouring books.’

Brisket has chosen to move in, by the look of that armchair ownership.
It’s quite likely that after a little while of being soft-spoken, gentle and kind, Brisket will mellow out, and put her weapons into retirement.

She’s a Bushland Terrier called Jessie. Fearless with masses of energy and attitude but equally a bundle of joy.

She’s a beauty, that’s what she is.
I am not really a dog person. I don’t dislike dogs but most don’t do much for me and I suspect most dogs probably feel the same about me. But today whilst out for a walk along the sea wall with a friend, we saw a dog with no front legs coming towards us a 3-wheeled walking frame. Her human explained she was a rescue and had been found in a street with her two front legs hanging off. When called over by her human, she expertly manoeuvered the walking frame and came up for some strokes. She was a very happy and friendly dog clearly had adapted well to her two-legged life and is able to get around her home on just her two back legs. I am full of admiration for the woman who adopted her and the dog for being so resilient. In a world full of news about so much crap done by humans it is great when you stumble across an example of how good humans can be.

That sounds like an uplifting experience and I concur. We foster dogs for a local rescue organization and the folks who dedicate their lives to these animals are heroes. The horrors they frequently encounter are more than we could bear.

Now this is not a pet and doesn’t have a name, not even one given her by us, but this little fox was in our garden yesterday eating seeds that had spilled under a bird feeder. I took this photo through a window, but then crept quietly down the garden to try to get a better photo. Unfortunately I trod on a tiny dried leaf with my bare foot and that was the fox gone instantly. I think it’s a female.
