A friend has just posted this on my Facebook wall… and as Pudsey was so clever – we thought we’d share him.

Pet Of The Week – Vienna

admin — Fri, 17 Feb 2012 06:00:49 +0000

We just had to include Vienna this week. She is a house cat, but managed to escape last weekend… causing lots of worry for her owners, Matt & Alison. Congratulations on being our pet of the week Vienna!

Name of Pet
Vienna

Type/Breed
Siamese

Pet Age
1 year

Location
Lanzarote

Pet Likes
Food, cuddles, pushing her mum and dad out of bed at night and the newly discovered great outdoors.

Dislikes
She would like me to say that she hates her doggy brother and sister, but I see her kiss them when she thinks I’m not looking. Like all cats, she hates doors and not being able to go through one whenever she wants to, even if she doesn’t know she wants to until it’s shut.

Why is your pet so great?
Vienna is feisty, flirty, faithful and fearless. Perhaps this comes partly from being a rescue cat and partly from her breed, but I think it comes from her just being her. Having thought we’d lost her last weekend (damn those doors) we realise
that we love her more than we could have imagined. The doors are now open and she has her freedom (damn over protective parents). We can now let her be even greater than we knew she already was.

We saw this on television recently, and had to share. It needs sound. Oh yes, this dog loves guitar!

Cute dog of the day!

Not that we have a “cute dog of the day” competition… but if we did – then Corona would win today!

Enjoy!

Dog of the week – Hugo

admin — Fri, 10 Feb 2012 09:09:26 +0000

When we first heard about Hugo, we knew he had to be included as our pet of the week! Just one look at those panda eyes and we were hooked!

Hugo has gone to live with Patrick and Jerry the Dog in a little oasis of calm on the southern coast of Spain.

Very recently, Jerry the Dog sadly lost his plamate and confidante, Ben… and was feeling somewhat wistful. So Patrick headed off to the local rescue centre and found him a friend. In the photo, Jerry is at the back, and Hugo is at the front. Happy reading!

Name of Pet
Hugo

Type/Breed
Mongrel (possible wire-haired Griffon x)

Pet Age
2 years

Location
Motril (Costa tropical oasis)

Pet Likes
Hugo loves the company of other dogs and especially new brother Jerry-dog.
Has been living with foster family for half his adult life with 3 other dogs so well socialised.
Loves full bowl of food which he can eat in less than 2 minutes! Walking along the dry riverbed and running into the ocean on the nearby beach.

Dislikes
Just getting to know Hugo, but seems not to dislike anything really. Apart from being left alone or ignored – always looking for attention.

Why is your pet so great?
Hugo a great dog, adapted easily to new life here at Cortijo Nuevo. Confident from day one, plays with other dog Jerry – rarely barks and ignores the birdsong in the garden! As yet, not even shown any interest in digging holes in the garden – a plus point!

Do you have a listing on this website?
Actually I have two!
