It’s been 1 year since a little orange fluffball climbed my leg in the parking lot at work. Since then Dandy has grown to be a part of Spike’s and my family. She’s also gained a bunch of aunts and uncles here and I hope has brought some joy into the world. Happy Gotcha Day Dandy!

Our lovely cat, adopted from a rescue a year ago, is being operated on this morning to remove an old airgun pellet from his skull. We had no idea it was there until it caused an infection last week. Very grateful for any fingers you could cross for him.

Despite U-Turn on winter fuel payment to pensioners, govt won't reverse disability benefit cuts. Now says claimants will be given 13 weeks before they lose either personal independence payments or linked carers’ allowance. Are disabilities to vanish in 13 wks? Cruel and inhumane. archive.ph/8KHE3

Poor Buzz #251644 has just 8 shares on his linked post. This wonderful 4 year old has notes like "friendly, walks well on a leash, knows sit, likes treats" - sadly he's getting little attention and is soon to be added to Apple Valley CA's euthanasia list.

🚨IT’S NOT TOO LATE for the government to change course. Keir Starmer is being advised to urgently pause the Government's plans to cut disability & health benefits by Parliament's work & pensions committee who say they should not go ahead without a comprehensive impact assessment Contact your MP,NOW

I’m joining @trusselluk.bsky.social in calling on the government to rethink its cruel, shameful & completely irresponsible plan to cut benefits which will plunge 250,000 people, including 50,000 children into poverty - on its own impact analysis This is how you can help youtu.be/XrX4dF3wqt0?...
