    Compulsive licking

    Ok, we have now discovered this is definitely a compulsive habit and not a physical issue. He will sit on the back of the sofa behind your head and try to lick and pull at your hair. Not sure what I can do to help him. Feliway didn’t seem to make any difference

    Uveitis flare uo - what do you do whilst waiting for the vet

    As a human that suffers from uveitis, I can’t tell you the light intolerance is the worst thing. Anything other than being in a dark room with sunglasses on is painful. So I’d go with the best mask possible in a dark, inside stable during a flare.

    Are secondhand saddles selling?

    I’m trying to find a 16.5” Cavaletti monoflap and the second hand prices are only about £100 less than new. Certainly no cheap ones of those about

    He is not scratching. Like I’ve never seen him scratch once. If it was an allergy would he not itch himself?

    Compulsive licking

    I have acquired an elderly cat. I have a yard in the next village and the neighbour sold their house. They moved out on a weekend when it was very cold and frozen solid and left their elderly cat there 😢. Long story short, but I ended up with him. He is at least 16 as another neighbour has been...

    Fixing synthetic saddles?

    I have bought a saddle to start my young horse after my saddler took a look and advised what would fit. I got this Thorowgood pony long leg at a good price as the skirts are separating like in the picture. This one is the worst, but the sealant material on the other side that holds the two...

    Multipurpose cooler/travel/stable rug

    I have been very lucky this year and up until the rain last week we had no mud and I could walk around in trainers. I’m in SE and it has been very very dry. Which does mean our hay is a ridiculous price - not sure which I’d rather It’s clay so now I have some mud at the gate, but I have a lot...

    Multipurpose cooler/travel/stable rug

    My horses live out, so I don’t need stable rugs generally, but one of mine is off to my trainer for a couple of months and will be in during the day and out overnight. I don’t particularly want his turnout rug being poo stained so I’ve been looking for a rug for him that can be multipurpose as I...

    Rambo optimo

    People say to size down, but is that because their horses aren’t big built? Or do the rugs measure longer than they state? Mine is 6’6 in length and i worry if i get a 6’3 his butt will poke out
