Great photo! Bluey has been known to "lace-edge" school projects, lol. I had to keep sharp watch on him and library books!

I just love the photo, skysmum. Must be wonderful to look back and remember your one-in-a-million buddy. Our first furry or feathery best friends never leave us, really.

What a lovely photo! How true, our first one never ever leaves us Stace x Ol' Mont didn't tend to chew my newspaper I was reading, she just chased the pen if I were doing the crossword

Thanks everyone. Bobby lived until he was 12, i was 20 and leaving home when he died. When i got married and had my girls we had two budgies Snowy and Peter a grey and a blue then i had several years without one and then it all started again about fifteen years ago, so ive pretty much always had the little critters in my life, those and dogs, ive always had a dog. Ive also got a 12 year old rabbit.
