The cats are still freaked out - very interested but as soon as she wags her tail (which is just about constant) they run!

We'll get there. As soon as they realise how warm and snuggly she is they'll be her bestest friend.

Cat still doesn't look very impressed in the photo Rob. He looks very disgusted with all the attention Noodle is getting.:curse:

True! They've got close enough for a sniff a couple of times but she's too bouncy for them!

Probably a silly question, but what are the main breeds out in NZ.

Over here, every other bugger has a staffie.

Oh yeah, and how much do sheep cost ( I mean alive of course ) as this is one thing I have promised the eldest girl just to get her to come.

hi

kato33 you have just asked the question that i wanted to know, well about the dogs anyhow, i want a goat not a sheep

We want to get a dog if our application goes ok but i was looking towards a labrador etc

are these dogs easy to buy and are the cheaper than in the uk, i dont want a little thing that has to be carried everywhere, something that likes to be taken for a walk. I have had big dogs before but these were chow chows and rotweilers, (that was when i lived with parents) and want a change of breed oh and if possible a breed that is going to get on with my 2 cats

with regards

I wont let my girl read this then as she will be asking for a goat also.

I would have a huge pets corner if I could but I think I would be heading for divorce. The OH is a bit of a moaner when it comes to me and my pets. I would love a lizard of some sort or a snake but NOOOOOOOOOOOOO WAAAAYYYYYYYY will he let me. I am sure he is just scared. LOL

hi

like you kato33 i also love animals, and my other half has come to love them too, when we met me and my cats came as a package and i would love more animals when we move. We want to settle somewhere near the south of the South Island, and would like somewhere with about an acre of land if possible, or buy some land and build our own house. Animals feaure highly in our move, god knows what the cats are going to think as they are definitely not "animal" friendly.

with regards

Oh Rob, that face on the puppy, its gorgeous! I cant help but laugh at its brown head and white body though!
But cute as all the same.
I love animals too.
My son is doing a degree in animal psychology/behaviour, he can start with our mad cat!

She's a cheeky little thing! She does look rather sheep like though

I think she's going to be a right handful to train - she seems to be pretty intelligent but it's very hard to ger her to concentrate and listen.
