Little Luna's Lovely Portrait, Thankyou so much Harminee, I'll see you again little moon,

Beautiful sending you some Gigi cuddles from across the country...

Hi there Harminee, I've tried to make some sort of dedication to Luna myself, but just can't seem to get it right. She was from my first litter of kittens, born in my lap and slept on my neck for her whole 6 days... But like the moon, even when I can't see her for the daylight I know she's there waiting for me... If you could find some time to make a simple portrait of my Luna I would appreciate it forever... "The Passing of a Cloud, it Seems; A Fragment of the Stuff of Dreams... Frail Challenger of the Blaze of Noon, Wandering, Wonderful Morning Moon!" Luna 28/8/2010-3/9/2010.

this is the kitty you made the garden for? very sad, awful way to go

Oh Yeah!!! What a spunk indeed! Awesome awesome awesome :cry: He looks so happy, and a little more grown up Btw, have been slack with coat making, haven't even made any for anyone Kittens

If it wasn't cats, they'd break in to backyards and steal dogs, or shoot cats through their runs... I know I'll get shouted down, but I live in a cat friendly street, one next door has three cats and the other has a new kitten... my outdoor cats and their's like to gather and watch the fish in next door's pond... all are desexed and vaccinated and microchipped. You can't stop accidents from occuring and sickos will be sickos... actually, when a friend of mine got burgled they took her indoor jack russell... still to this day haunts me.

omg... Just can't grasp it...

Name: Bethanie C Levarre-Waters Age (optional): 24 Location: Penrith, NSW Rescue Group: Have fostered for Sydney Pet Rescue and Adoption, Shine, and have had help rehoming with ACDR, currently prefer privately fostering. Time in Rescue: 6 months Who can vouch for: I have met Ozsomerset, K9 , Lovemesideways, and sharnie69 in person. LMSW, Ozsomerset and Sharnie69 have been to my house on several occasions. I have had long chats and fostered for Laika (Beth Shine). I have used k9 's clause 16d. And have received generous donations from SAAM, Hollys Mummy, Lisa Ann, Sheilaheel02, and Ozdogs- sorry if i have forgotten anyone or mispelled :D who have in return received news and photos of those they've helped rescue Preferred Breed: Kelpies and Keeshonds (but really prefer oldies, timids and anything smaller than "huge" ) Experience (if any): Have fostered and re-homed two cattle dogs privately, am currently fostering two kelpies, two male cats, and a mumma cat and her newborns kittens. I have three cats and three dogs of my own... see my thread Microchip: Yes! And Lifetime Registration Always! Vaccination: Yes, c5 for all my and foster dogs. We have a cat flu house, as Tuffy has it, only cats with cat flu history will be fostered here for fear vaccines won't work. All cat fosters will still have their vaccinations. Desexing: YES!!!!! Heartworm test: Only if required. worming: Canex and Valueheart flea treatment: revolution when needed vet work: definitely if required, I use Penrith Veterinary Hospital and am well known and respected there. basic training/teach manners: definitely. house train dogs: Mostly outside dogs or open doors. Will litter train kittens/cats. Dogs inside the home or outside: mostly outdoors, they have a whole granny flat set up, although they get daily walks and stimulation and are allowed indoors if need quarantine or vet treatment. In summer the doors are open so they can come inside as they wish. Usually stay outdoors though on their beds. Are you prepared to give extra care for a submissive nervous dog. definitely, I have my own submissive dog and enjoy the challenge of building confidence in fearful or submissive dogs through walks, training and treats.

lol, you can tell I'm old and married, i was looking at the pups and didn't notice "him" until fran swooned! Hiya Jed, I'm only new to dol but I'm really glad you're doing better and I have been thinking of you and your animal friends... good luck!

I'm so sorry Di, I just read about her in the HP thread and was so glad you were taking her out of there, am very sorry for your loss.

AHAHAHAHA She sounds like a CAT!

I'm sorry it turned out to be so serious, I was just going to suggest my cat got really stressed out a while ago and didn't eat for a few days, only sort of looked at his food dish, then I took him to the vet and they put him on xanax because it makes them calm and hungry. Sometimes when an animal hasn't eaten for a couple of days they can then become too nauseas to eat. The xanax really helped, only needed it for a day or two and he started eating regularly again. Fingers crossed for this girl that she pulls through.

Aloveen works really well for my boy too!

How did this go? My keeshond chews his rear end like a nervous tick since being clipped there for surgery. Hope pup is in better condition now

I saw a behaviourist for my dominant aggressive dachshund Bubbi. The behaviourist took his lead and almost instantly Bubbi went berserk biting squealing growling spitting and the behaviourist just kept tugging the lead and making Bubbi heel. Basically, the behaviourist let Bubbi get out all his aggression/frustration until he was calm. The dog can only stay in that state of mind for a time until he has to come back down again. So hopefully the behaviourist will pick out what is really causing the aggression/anxiety in your pooch and help him get it all out. The behaviourist will also work on your energy, maybe now you are anxious in some way when strapping him in, but you don't realise it etc... Do try and take some videos/pictures/write descriptions of tail position/words you use/voice you use/clothes you wear etc in relation to this issue to help the behaviourist figure out potential triggers. They will probably do exposure therapy (like when people have phobias) building up to the actual strapping it, or if its a problem with you, it might be as simple as him/her taking the dog up to the car and just strapping him in (the behaviourist makes a different dog happen because they are different people with different energy). It should be an absolutely amazing experience that will help you with any future problems. You shouldn't need to go more than once or twice if they are good and you follow up on instructions. I honestly believe its about energy and a short rehabilitation is all the pooch needs to get over his fear. Maybe you should also buy a soft muzzle just in case he is a bit bity on the day. Let us know how it goes. BTW my behaviourist was Ravi Wasan of featheredfriends.com.au and had an amazing rate for rescue orgs.
