Good shout, @Tiddlypom. They don’t have any TB crosses, but plenty of other pure breeds and crosses.

I always found wrapping the pill in a small amount of smoked salmon worked a treat. Possibly because it's strong smelling enough to disguise the pill to cat noses as well as being tasty. It also meant I got to eat most of the rest of the smoked salmon! 😂

I agree. When I bought my latest hat, I went through every dial-to-fit hat in the shop that was in my budget and size range that they had in stock, and there was only one that fitted properly. It didn't help that my head size was on the cusp between two sizes in most brands; the smaller one was...

If you’re happy with your Ariat ones, it might be worth a look on Vinted to see if you can pick an unworn or barely worn pair for a bargain price, and then you perhaps wouldn’t feel so worried about wrecking them.

Buy the other pony! Or at least show us the photos of what you're missing out on. Atlas is looking fabulous. 😍

Given that you can easily just return her to being at home if it doesn't work out, why not just give it a try for a few months?

My friend's cats are Salt and Pepper. :) Or if you're a Marvel movies fan, Michen, you could go with 'Potts'. ETA, Atlas is looking gorgeous, as are both dogs!

I could have coped with the new Met Office app if it hadn't a) removed all my saved locations and then denied all knowledge of one of them existing when I tried to add it back in and b) removed the ability to just quickly scroll through my locations easily and instead meant I had to click to...

Grangers Waterproofing Wax is also really good. Apparently it’s the military’s waterproofing of choice.

Not stick-on ones, but I use Sassy Saints dip powder. I can get three weeks wear out of them and get them off with no damage, though they do take time. Took one lot off yesterday, and I’ll be redoing them this afternoon. More cost effective than gels too. They also do gels that don’t need curing...

Definitely worth a try. I got my boy through Pets4Homes, though I bought from him from a breeder as there weren’t any rescues that jumped out at me at the time, and I knew he was the right cat for me. She’d apparently had over 30 enquiries about him, so perhaps the ones you’d asked about had a...

As an alternative, one of my sisters has rehomed several cats directly from posts on Facebook from owners saying they are looking to rehome for whatever reason. I know when I was looking there were several similar ads on the likes of Preloved and Pets4Homes too. These are sometimes free to a...

I don't have one myself, but I like them in teal, bright turquoise, green or cream.

My local independent rescue (one of my best friends had two cats from them) charge a £90 adoption fee per cat, if that helps.

The lite version of the Equidry long coat might also do the job. It has the thinner fleece so shouldn't be too bulky, or you could go for the mesh-lined mac version. If you get a 'tall' sized one, it will cover the tops of your boots. Or there's the Reincoat equivalent to the the mesh-lined one...
