Princess Pixel

Pixel is slowly coming around to her old self.   She can now jump onto the sofa, run around looking for treats and torment Bailey now and then.   We do try to stop the playing though as her incision has not fully healed yet.
She spent the first two days acting like a little drama queen, and [...]

Awww… Zielig!

Well today was the big day for Pixel.  Now six months old it was time to have her sterilized.  The poor little thing!   It was so heartbreaking for me to have this done to her now but I know it is the best thing for her.   We learned our lesson by putting it off too [...]

Poor Pixel

Even though I’m feeling like crap at the moment I am giving all my well wishing vibes to Pixel.   Somehow she managed to scratch her eye, which has caused some swelling and irritation.
The vet said that she has a scratch on her cornea and gave us cream to put in her eye 4 times a [...]

Cheap Pedicure

Who needs a pedicurist when you have dogs like this?!
Bailey was always a seriously licky dog, and he’s passed the habit on to Pixel.  If there is an inch of bare skin, they want to be licking it.  They’ll stop if you tell them no… sternly … err, and repeatedly.  Shouting it helps.  They’ll usually [...]

Bedroom Reno Part 1 – Camping Out!

The time has come to tackle our bedroom and get it up to date with the rest of our house.   It has been a long time coming!  We’ve been living in this flat for about 8 years and we’ve not done a single thing to it since we moved in.   When we bought the flat [...]

Pixel – Four Months Old

Pixel is now 4 months old and has been living with us for 2 months.  We are madly in love with her!  Bailey is as well, thankfully.   The housebreaking thing is going ok, the mistakes are fewer than in previous weeks, although she is still getting out for a walk every 2.5 hours or so.  [...]

The Cat Who Loves Me

It’s now been a few months since Spencer has been back home with us after the shelter debacle and the kiwi carnage.   I think I’m going to start calling him Spencer v2.0 from now on because he really is a new version of himself.
I was speaking with the lady who kept Salem yesterday and he [...]

42 Days

That’s how long until the first day of Autumn.  It sounds like a long time but it’s not really, and we’ve not even had a summer yet (we didn’t last year either).   I want to go back to France, where it was warm and dry.   Barring my horrid sunburn, I loved it there… and I [...]

He’s Got The Right Idea!

Have you ever just wished someone would shut the hell up? (I wonder how many of you thought ‘yeah you!’ when I said that haha)
Anyhow, today I realized that Bailey is smarter than all of us.   While playing with Pixel on my footstool I guess he got sick of her because this was the result.

I [...]
