It has stopped raining

I volunteered to take care of the cat at work. So I need to buy food for her and a bowl for water (she currently uses puddles which I think is absolutely unacceptable).

Saw 6 red kites in the hills today plus a million inquisitive goats

Why? Our dog often goes outside & drinks the water that's collected in buckets or bowls at the back of the house in preference to her fresh water in her bowl.

I work in a metal and timber yard so imagine the quality of water. Oil and paint and other nice stuff.

I used to have a cat who liked to drink from the toilet...

You could compromise though, by using rain water, as some cats just don't like the taste of tap water.

What are you feeding her, btw? Just curious.

She wouldn't drink it if it was bad, she'd go find somewhere where it was fresh

I think that pets should have a choice of water. If the cat prefers puddles that's fine. But I will try food and water bowls next to each other.

I keep a bowl by the back door that fills up with rain water. The cats like to drink that or from any puddles that are lying around. I agree that she needs reasonably clean water, rather than oily mucky water. What happens to her at the weekends?

We don't normally buy posh bottled water. What we tend to do is fill plastic bottles with tap water again and again and chill them in the fridge.

Our dog has latched onto this, he watches everything.

His preference now is for chilled tap water from a green San Pellegrino bottle, a clear bottle is not good enough for him, it needs to be green.

It won't be posh bottled water. Just clean water.

I don't know yet. But definitely not the cheapest stuff from a shop. I personally treat her as if she's my pet.

The company is opened almost 7 days a week so there's always somebody to feed her. And I've been told that she can take care of herself - she once caught a rabbit.

Cool My girls get Royal Canin Sensible 33 dry plus a mix of wet (Felix AGAIL, Sheba, Gourmet Gold) and raw.

Clever girl! Poppy is the rabbit specialist here chez Casa Reynard, but Lexi has brought me three mice today.

Wilson's ready for some early Saturday am miles

 

[Andy in Germany]

I thought I was going to get wet on my ride today. But I didn't.

 

[Reynard]

I have a very fine piece of Somerset brie for my supper.

Acquired on YS of course.
