    Vegan boyfriend...and hunting....

    Hunting the clean boot is a lot of fun. Mind you, the real question here is that you have come on here to ask about your partner's attitude. IMO veggies and omnis can live together if both give and take. Vegans who are committed would be harder to live with, eg, does he drive a car, what tyres...

    Nice browbands

    Why not try making your own? Beads and blingy crystal threads are always on Ebay and you could have some fun with a new hobby.

    The Unspeakable?

    I would not think that a hound that has hunted for many seasons would be rehomed. They just aint used to typical pet dog home life! I know a lot of folks who hunt or have hunted and none have had a 'retired' hound. They get shot, they are not housetrained, pet dog material.

    Nutters ...

    Its not a religion, but could be part of a religious view. Let's face it, this campaign is not going anywhere is it? Nutty idea maybe, but lots of folk think other religions are just as nonsensical. I am not offended by any religion, Jedi, Sacred Fox, Zoroastrianism, Catholic...

    What is your favourite horse breed?

    Hackney horses any day. Their intelligence, prescence, lithe beauty, quirkyness, hardiness, long livedness (is that a word?) willingness to try anything and their dogged attachment to one person (remind me of Siamese/Oriental cats) just do it for me. Such a shame they are an endangered breed...

    me too, I would keep him in, better he's upset than fall into the hands of this psycho.

    Calling all cat people! Top tips?

    Great advice already, but I would say that number of litter trays is trial and error, whenI had 6 indoor only cats I had 2 litter trays and all was well. Lots of scooping and emptying (I prefer wood pellets) but no accidents. Luckily I worked from home so no 8 hours of stinkiness for them. As...

    RATS!!

    Just saying... witholding food from cats does not make them better hunters. It is taught by Mum, if they are not taught well they won't make good hunters. Research has show that well fed cats hunt better than hungry cats.

    Silly question I'm sure ! Old hounds?

    ' Bearing in mind many Countrymen and women went to fight a war in 1939, because they were angry that Hitler shot all the Hounds in Nazi Germany in 1936 and abolished hunting.' Judgemental, you are clearly the latter part of your screen name.

    What's your type?

    One full of joir de vivre, forward going and sharp, but affectionate.

    Dead Horses on Channel Ferry?

    From the report, it seems like the horses were in a poor condition already, I would guess that a polo pony transporter has some nous in assessing condition. Awfull for them too. Horrible event and perplexed as to why there is no other noews on this case.

    Can an outdoor cat become happy indoors ?

    Indeed, a catio is the answer. Does not have to be fancy, and it gives a cat what it needs without danger. Would be ideal for your kitty.

    The wild mustang question.

    PZP and as far as possible humane killing of those animals in holding pens. To profit from these horses by sending them to Mexico is barbaric.

    The Peel case horses - the lost ones

    Ah, so the GG Centre is run by Cooper Wilson? I thought the rescue centre he was involved with and the GG Centre were two seperate entities. How could you work for CW Barehoof? Hardly one for rescue it seems.

    When do you know?

    I think you just know. My old girl was retired for many years, and we walked in hand when she was unable to be ridden. She was happy. She dealt with retirement very well. IMO when you start asking yourself questions, then the time is near. Something in your gut tells you these things. My...
