It is some time since we had a thread about pet photos. Not just cats and dogs, although they would be lovely. If you have an unusual pet I would love to see a picture. In fact any animal pictures you have taken would be nice, camels, llamas, sheep, cows, giraffes, lizards, elephants........

Magenta I can assure you that Dexter is very real and can make his feelings shown but talking to us. Never barks or growls but grunts a lot.

Come ON we are waiting for our walk

I spent the morning in the spare room working on my new patchwork. Milo and Ripley joined me and I left them to carrying on sleeping after I finished.

My Red Persian was very real too. He required brushing several times a day to avoid his fur knotting and he needed help with his personal hygiene, to put it politely. He had a lovely sweet nature and loved cuddles. I still miss him.

I have just noticed that it is International Cat Day on Saturday 8 August. Dog day is on 26 August.

Here she is again: Joey the tortoise. 64 years together this year, and I think she was about 2 or 3 when I bought her with my pocket money on my 5th birthday. She cost me 2/6d in old money!

Lovely to see Joey the tortoise again. It must be the best 2/6d you ever spent AskAlice.

I agree and I love seeing the photos. Thank you everyone 😀

I've been trying for years to catch a recording of Milly saying hello 😂

I had a cat who used to 'chat' all the time. Often he sounded as though he was swearing under his breath. If I shushed him he just used to up the volume. The only way I could get him to be quiet was to say "Speak" in a loud authoritative way.

This is Ellie asleep today and 11 years ago today when we brought her home.

Winnie a couple of years ago. She’s much greyer now…
