What pets do you have?
I am interested what pets every one has. I have two old Standard Schnauzers (one of which knew I had breast cancer but I fobbed his sniffing off as being a sticky beak at the time), a rosella called Arnie because he will rip your fingers off like Arnold Schwartzeneggar as quick as you like and he is the boss of us. I also have about 15 aquariums with mostly pleco L number catfish and guppies and cherry shrimp.

"Molly the magpie and Peggy the dog are a 'real-life Winnie the Pooh and Piglet story' - ABC News" https://amp.abc.net.au/article/100447022 - Sue_w1MemberHi Everyone, great thread. We have three rescues. A small silver - grey cat named Leah. She was dumped at the vets as a kitten as she wasn't 'breed perfect'. Next was a malnourished kitten that I picked up late one night. Brenna is now fat, soft and queen of all she surveys. Lastly is our big boy Klunk. We adopted Klunk when he was 18 weeks old from a rescue group. He had already been rescued twice and was very traumatised. He's now 7 years old. He has the most gentle soul and is still scared of strangers. He's goof who howls when he's happy, hungry or excited and he has to get in the middle of every cuddle!
- Blossom1961Member@kmcin28 I bought my little girl as a gift to myself for completing treatment. Like you, I would have loved to have her whilst I was having treatment, but I didn't think that would be fair on her. I have a Frenchie who loves giving me cuddles and will not even eat her brekky or dinner until she has snuggled in to me.
- arpieMemberThat's gorgeous @Cath62 - they reckon pets can actually 'smell' cancer too - some dogs have sniffed out moles on their owners, prompting them to get it checked & sure enough, melanoma. In the USA, I think they've even tried training dogs up as 'cancer sniffers'! xx
