My baby girl -
Hi again @alaine - Aww thank you for sharing such a lovely photo of Rula. How are you both today?I've got my son's Bedlington terrier, Stan, for the day. The trouble is I have a kitten, & he wants to be near her all the time. She's just escaped outside, & Stan is peaceful at the moment keeping my legs warm!

Hi, Doing good today. Rula loves to cuddle up, very hot water bottle.

That's good to hear! My hot water bottle will be going home soon, but my kitten sits on my legs too, she's just not quite as warm.

Hi @alaine and a very warm welcome to the community. How are you today?
