Shortage of Cat and Dog Vaccines

 

Vets are warning that there is a national  shortage of cat and dog vaccines.

The shortage has been brought about by covid disrupting supply chains, and a global increase in the ownership of cats and dogs.

It is unlikely that the situation will improve before sometime in 2022, as such vets are rationing vaccines and limiting registrations of new pets.

RIP Rosie (2009-2021)

 

We collected Rosie's ashes yesterday afternoon from Coastways, and brought them home.

 

We buried the ashes themselves in the earth near the palm tree that she used to enjoy climbing in her youth. To mark the spot we have placed a copper coal scuttle containing various rose plants. Later on we intend to plant a rose bush there.

 

The bamboo casket that her ashes came in is now home to her toy mouse that she has had since she was a kitten, when we took her home from the RSPCA in Patcham in 2009.

 

We had a drink in her memory in the Napier and the Dover last night.

 

RIP Rosie (2009-2021)

Farewell Rosie (2009-2021)

 

It is with great sadness that I have to let you know that Rosie died, after a short illness, yesterday afternoon.

 

She was not alone when she died, and was at least happy and relaxed at the the end.

 

She was a lovely little cat, and will be much missed.
