 Well, boo to the Post Office is all we can say - after Months of planning and and preperation the My Pet Friends team have had to delay the UK launch for yet another week due to further strikes. So pet owners up and down the country will have to wait a few more weeks before they can read information and tips for pet owners, read pet news, find pet shops and pet services.

 After a summer of fun with our owner’s nieces and nephews – rolling about in the garden and playing hide and seek – they’re back to school and we’re back to the daily grind. It’s already been a week since they went back and we do miss them – oh well, we’ll still see them at the weekends and they keep in touch through our blog, so that’s something to look forward to.

Pets, parks, picnics & Oscar the donkey |
|
|
|
|
Written by Kitty Teddy

What a beautiful day – and about time too – just what we all needed after what seems like a lifetime of rain and generally miserable weather. So, seeing as its a Bank Holiday weekend and we needed a well earned break from My Pet Friends with its fantastic range of pet shops, pet accessories and listings in the pet directory, we thought we’d take the opportunity to visit Oscar. Oscar’s a rescued donkey that lives in the Birmingham donkey sanctuary. Our owners are mad about donkeys so adopted him last year. He lives with 19 of his friends and was really happy to see us – we could tell because he gave us a flick of his ears and swished his tail – probably because we had ginger biscuits and polo mints for him.

Pet care breakthrough – dog knee replacement |
|
|
|
|
Written by MyPetFriends
|
 What will they think of next – the first dog knee replacement took place this week. A seven year old bearded collie called Grace from Tyneside has undergone the UK’s first canine knee replacement operation. Grace was finding it difficult to walk because of arthritis that caused her constant pain. The specialist veterinary practice in Solihull, in the west midlands, carried out the surgery and grace is expected to make a full recovery and be able to walk again.

Missing pets - micro chip your pet |
|
|
|
|
Written by MyPetFriends
|
 Thank god for micro chipping technology, where would we be without it? (Teddy: lost I guess). With all the talk of lost pets, pets being abducted or even stolen and some pets disappearing and then being found hundreds of miles away (see full story on my pet friends by clicking here), micro chipping technology is allowing us to keep close to our owners and most of all – safe. We’ve been micro chipped and at only a few pounds each that’s a great cost for knowing that if we’re ever parted from our owners, we can easily be reunited following a quick scan.

Exam grades - our pet hate |
|
|
|
|
Written by MyPetFriends
|
 The papers are full of the usual reports about A-levels and GCSEs becoming easier as the pass rate at Grade A increases once again this year. If you're a young person receiving your grades, these reports don't give you much praise for the hard work and effort that you have put into revising for your exams and simply make a mockery of the whole process.

Even though it’s wedding season, we haven’t been invited to any weddings this year – in fact, us poor pets never get invited (although seeing as we're virtual pets, we kinda wouldn’t have been invited anyway). However our owners were lucky enough to be invited to a few this year and have returned from the latest - their best friends wedding – clutching table decorations, stumbling over the collection of items taken as mementos and shamelessly drunk (Teddy: nothing new there then).

Raining cats and dogs…again |
|

Written by Kitty Teddy
|
 The weather has been terrible and so guess what - we we're talking about it again. We make no apologies for our blog beginning to sound more like a weather forecast, but it is an important issue and what with reports about global warming and the catastrophic effects that this may have for the world are worrying and worthy of attention.

 If we could we’d do our bit we would – recycling our tins and food packaging and using a grey water system; but we can’ and are relying on your help to save the earth.
