Sending best wishes from all of us at this difficult time. Basil was clearly loved and will always be with you. You've seen him through into his thirteenth year and given him every chance to enjoy as much of life as possible for as long as possible, with all the love and care he could ever need. Today is a hard day but it's never easy to let the ones we love go. It was done for all the right reasons and your boy did well to get to that great age. Basil is now free and with you forever. Take care x J

Hello all, thought I would update you on my life here with mom and dad. Well we went on holiday to the seaside but it rained a lot of the time and the wind did blow very hard. One night it was very loud and I got scared so I jumped on top of mom and dad and tried to get in between them but I sort of pushed dad out of bed (whoops) then I went and got on the bed with one of the grandsons heehee. I loves those boys. We went for lots of walks and we got muddy paws (that's me and Dolly not mom and dad), and we had lots of treats as well. Me and Dolly were very very good on the train and the buses so our moms are very proud of us. Today mom told me that me and Dolly were silly, I think we did something we shouldn't have. We saw a big twig in a pot so we chewed it and pulled it out and it broke into bits, mom said it was something called a plum tree that they had just bought, I did try to look sorry but don't think it worked but they still love me anyways. I'm going for a snooze now while I wait for dad to come home. Bye bye for now. xxxxxxxxTess

Dont know if i'm doing this right, but hope you get to see this comment!! We have had Kizzie now for two weeks, and she is fabulous, she has settled in amazingly, loves her new brother billy, even torments him!!, lol She gets on great with our two older cockers, but the youngster we are introducing slowly as shes' a bit mad! She likes sitting on the settee watching the telly and has been as good as gold whilst we have been out of the house, but she does always have the company of billy. We love her to bits xx

She is a card. Loves her cuddles and strokes and if you stop you get nudged. Continually after treats - you'd think she was starving. Just about gets her nose in my pockets - knows me well though as generally there are treats although she did end up with a tissue the other day. Ax
