Bishopston Vets4Pets

What is your favourite animal and why?

What is your favourite animal and why?

Cats - as they are independent in a lot of ways but then when they know you are a cat person they give you all the love in the world. In the veterinary industry, some cats can be labelled as nasty and fractious when they are merely terrified and misunderstood. I have learnt a lot about cat behaviour over the years and this has made me love them even more.

What is your favourite animal and why? 
Guinea Pigs because they have amazing personalities. They love to be handled and are very communicative. They are great in pairs because they talk to each other and even purr! They are also the ideal pet for children as they are a bit more robust than rabbits and smaller furies and are relatively easy to look after. When they are excited they do a weird little jump that is aptly called ‘pop corning’!

I have a crazy cat called Pushkin aka ‘The Magnificent Mr Pushkin – All Hail the Tail’. He has an awesome tail like a squirrel and he thinks he’s a Russian Prince.

He spends his days giving me dodgy looks and everything is on his terms.
