laying birds to provide enough for the average British family. A coop is essential no matter how ‘free range’ you’d like to keep the birds. They need it for a secure place to roost at night, away from casual predators. They are also fairly destructive in terms of garden space, so if you are a green fingered prodigy, you may want to consider a larger coop which can contain them for longer. A rough rule of thumb is around 50cmsq for each bird, plus a perch for roosting and a nesting box, and you must provide warmth and shelter from the elements too. Ventilation is important as chicken waste contains ammonia which can cause respiratory problems and damage eyes, although a well built home should also avoid drafty sleeping areas.

The first thing to consider is the space you have available. Chickens are sociable creatures and will need to be kept in a group. If you are considering keeping them for eggs, then you will need several

Keeping hens at home seems to be becoming an incredibly popular hobby. Just take a look on social media and see how many people have taken off keeping a few birds for eggs, or tending to a flock of rare breeds. Adopting ex battery hens is also a possibility – several family members have committed to re-homing some of these poor girls and have grown very fond of their new creatures.

Feeling Clucky?

If the idea is something which tickles you, then do your research. Keeping livestock is a slightly different ball game to keeping other domesticated pets; and while chickens can be fairly low maintenance, all owners have a responsibility under the Animal Welfare Act 2006 to ensure that all welfare needs are properly met.

Exercise space is key, and this should ideally be enclosed with wire mesh fencing to avoid foxes. This should be checked regularly for any signs of wear or

A study by the UK’s leading vet charity, People’s Dispensary of Sick Animals (PDSA), revealed that a third of dog owners noticed a downward turn in their pet’s mood dur ing the colder months. Half of the owners studied also reported that their pets slept for longer periods of time, while 20 percent noted that their pets were significantly less Inactive.aresponse to the upcoming darker months, the experts at Webbox are hoping to educate pet owners on identifying and relieving the symptoms of SAD within dogs.

Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD), also known as the ‘winter depression’ is a wellknown phenomenon across humans during the darker and colder months. As daylight decreases, the human brain produces more melatonin and less serotonin, creating a chemical imbalance which ultimately can have a substantial impact on mood, sleep, appetite, and activity.

HAPPY HOUNDS

Pet care expert gives tips on relieving Seasonal Affective Disorder

With one in three Brits experiencing symptoms of Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD), experts at leading pet food brand Webbox are warning that the change of seasons could also affect canines.

“With less sunshine throughout the winter months, a daily walk may also be the only chance your dog gets to experience some natural sunlight, so try to get out during the day if you can.”

3) Improve your internal lighting

4) Look after yourself

1) Keep up your summer routine through the winter months

• Reduced energy

“You could also invest in some sensory pet toys that will give your

“You could even purchase special light boxes that are designed to replicate natural sunlight to help alleviate the effects of SAD. While these products are designed by humans, it’s something that could also have a positive effect on your pooch. “If you’d rather not disturb your current lighting situation, simply moving your dog’s bed nearer a sunny-side window could help them soak up the natural rays better.”

Camille Ashforth says: “Try to keep their daily routine up throughout the winter months. Whilst we do appreciate that windy walks in the rain may not be as inviting as those lovely warm summer strolls, it’s important to keep your dog stimu lated by new sights and smells.

pooch something to play with, even if you’re not at home.”

“Focus on your stress levels, and make sure that you’re not outwardly projecting any characteristicsnegativearoundyour pet that they could pick up on.”

• Changes in appetite

Tips for reducing the effects of SAD in dogs:

“Just as we can feel our moods drop when the seasons change, our pets can too. With the Autumn Equinox having just fallen, it’s impor tant to keep an eye on pooches for the tell-tale signs of SAD.”

2) Encourage indoor activity

Camille Ashforth, Senior Brand Manager at Webbox, said: “Studies have shown that hu mans share a lot of the same brain chemistry with dogs, so it’s no surprise that our pets may also experience the chemical imbalance that causes SAD.

“It’s important to ensure that dogs frequently have opportunities for stimulation and entertainment, so make time to interact with your dog throughout the day.

13

• Grumpiness and irritability

“Many people agree that pets will often react to and reflect their owner’s moods, so it’s important that you look after your own mental health – especially if you’re worried about your pets’.

• General fatigue

14 Not Ready For A Dog or Cat? Not Ready For A Dog or Cat?

Hamsters

Fun to watch if they are living in the correct conditions. They are burrowing animals by nature and spend many hours digging for pleasure, making them much more fun to observe than to handle. Gerbils are quick and agile, and young children can find it quite difficult to hold them without squeezing too hard. If you have young children and wish them to be able to handle their pet, it may be better to choose a different species. As pets for adults, however, you will certainly find gerbils fascinating both to watch and to handle.

15

Perhaps a smaller pet is something you are interested in due to space constraints, or perhaps not having the time or mobility to give an animal the exercise it requires. What sort of pet would best suit you and your family? The Blue Cross gives this advice:

Small and quick and, for this reason, may not be suitable for young children. As with all small furry animals, there needs to be considerable parental interest as children can easily be distracted and forget the daily needs of their pets. Male mice have quite a strong smell of musk, but the females have far less smell. For this reason more attention needs to be given to the cleaning regime for males.

Mice

There are many different types of hamster. Only one type needs to live as a solitary animal, while all others need companions. They are by nature nocturnal animals and can become quite alarmed if disturbed in the daytime. For this reason they may be a disappointing companion for a child and may bite if disturbed from sleep, they are probably just waking up as your child is going to bed. With quite poor eyesight and easily startled by sudden movements, they make much better companions for adults than for children.

Gerbils

Guinea Pigs

16

Can make good companions for adults and children. They are fun to watch and have a varied vocabulary. Once you get to know your animals it is possible to tell when they are happy, sad, excited or angry. They are not happy just to be left in a hutch at the bottom of the garden, but need shelter from all extremes of weather and a run to enable them to graze freely, safe from predators. It is vital that they are with another of their own kind. Gentle by nature, guinea pigs can be a good first-time companion for a child as long as there is considerable parental interest. Consideration needs to be given to their fairly long lifespan, which can be up to seven years. If you are buying them for your children, please consider whether they will still be interested in seven years time. Many animals end up in rehoming centres such as The Blue Cross because children often reach an age when their priorities change.

If housed and handled correctly, chinchillas make intelligent, happy and interesting companions. When you know them well and they are happy in their homes, they can be taught to do basic tricks in order to earn a treat! Consideration must be given to their long lifespan, which is approximately 15 years. It is vital to give extra thought if you are considering buying them as companions for your children – who may have grown up and left home by the time the chinchillas have reached later life. Chinchillas are nocturnal animals, and need a very large cage plus a dust bath (this is essential for their mental and physical well-being). They are enthusiastic dust bathers and do make quite a lot of mess! Chinchillas need to live with a companion – either a female with a neutered male, or litter-mates of the same sex (they will usually live harmoniously as long as they have been together since birth). As well as having a large cage for their accommodation, they need to be given exercise time out of their cage, and are responsive and lively animals.

Chinchillas

Most people are of the opinion that rabbits are excellent pets for children. There are, however, many things to be considered before thinking of giving a home to these animals, especially

Rabbits

Please be sure that when buying any small animal for yourself or your children you always use a reputable breeder. Make sure the animals have been sexed properly, and are of sufficient age to leave their mothers. Never buy animals from pet shops unwilling to spend time with you making sure you understand the commitment being taken on.

So what sort of pet would best suit you & your family?

when you have young children. Rabbits are prey animals and need to be ready to run from danger at all times. Those rabbits kept only in hutches have nowhere to feel secure, and when a child tries to lift them from the hutch, the rabbit may try to scratch, kick or bite to get away from perceived danger. Children can therefore be disappointed when they find their rabbits are not keen to be picked up and cuddled. They do make good companions for children as long as their accommodation is correct and the handling is done with sensitivity and under adult supervision. The best kind of accommodation for rabbits when children are involved in their daily care, is a wooden Wendy house construction with an attached run area. This will give children the opportunity to sit quietly and wait for the rabbits to come to them. This way the animals will feel more confident as they will have all four feet on the ground and will be able to hop away should they wish to do so. It also means that the rabbits can still be given attention even during bad weather and the children will be able to groom them and watch them having fun. It is important that a rabbit has a companion of its own kind. Many people are of the opinion that rabbits and guinea pigs can live quite happily together, but this is NOT the case. They do not “speak the same language” and rabbits can sometimes inflict quite severe injuries on guinea pigs, especially in the spring. The approximate lifespan of a rabbit is between six and eight years, therefore careful thought needs to be given before taking on these animals.

GoldenOldies

As we age, so do our bodies and our minds. Strength can weaken joints and bones and become stiff or sore; eyesight may suffer. It is not different from our pets. That energetic puppy or playful kitten will soon grow up, and as their health begins to change or decline, it is important to make sure you know how to look after them properly.

Senior Pet Care

When we talk about senior, we mean at around 7 years or so in dogs and cats.

In small dogs, the signs of aging can take quite a bit longer to show, but energy levels will begin to drop, behaviour may alter, and dietary needs will probably require some thought. Thankfully, these changes are usually gradual, but regular vet checks and health checks at home should mean you are aware before they start to cause your pet too many aches and pains.

Well, changes to routine are the best signs. Sleeping patterns, appetite and activity levels are the obvious ones. An older cat may sleep more, or be less anxious for food; dogs may struggle with clean toileting even when they have long been trained. Some dogs may consume less water, so check they are drinking and not becoming dehydrated.

What should you watch for?

18

Mobility can be impaired, as can energy levels. It may be that you notice your dog seems more tired after a long walk, and you may need to consider a gentler route more often. If cats are suffering with arthritis or joint pain, they may not perch in as many high places or leap into action at the sight of a toy.

Hearing and sight can also be affected, and you may notice these are no longer as sharp. Behaviourally, there may be some changes in reactions towards strangers, or even family members, which can indicate cognitive issues and should be monitored closely. Dogs can suffer from senility issues in later life in the same way humans can, so odd behaviours should also be monitored.

lacking in suitable nutrition and contains far too much salt and sugar, so keep scraps to an absolute minimum if you must.

What can you do?

19

A soft, comfy bed is excellent for older bones, and should help manage draught exposure too which can be painful for arthritic joints. Regular visits to the vets to monitor for any lumps and bumps, eye and ear issues and weight are also a good idea. Teeth should be monitored closely in older pets; as these can decline quite rapidly in health and cause diet issues very rapidly. Sadly, some breeds do not have particularly long life spans, and regular monitoring means you will be kept aware of how long it is kind to keep them going.

Have some understanding too. If your cat is grouchy some days, leave her be. Ramps can help senior dogs climb into vehicles or up sharp steps where needed, and if walks take slightly longer, consider breaking them down or taking a less strenuous route.

Like people, both cats and dogs who become more sedentary later in life can have weight issues caused by the same diet with less exercise. Less calories will be used, but they still need the usual, and some extra, nutrients. Changing to a suitable ‘Senior Care’ feed is a good idea, as these are usually balanced to provide the right amount of protein and fibre with less calories to suit your pets lifestyle. As always, although it is tempting to treat your pet, cats and dogs should not consume human food, which is often calorie dense,

Diet and weight

Your pet will soon grow up, & as their health begins to change or decline, it is important to make sure you know how to look after them properly.

For some folk, snakes are not the obvious first choice as ‘pet’. Not cuddly, no big doe eyed companionship, and a steady diet of frozen rodents is not for everyone, perhaps understandably so. Of course, history has long painted the snake as the bad guy (the bible, anyone?) and something to be feared, and they are not easy pets either, requiring time, money and knowledge, but these fascinating creatures can be both rewarding and educational as pets. They may take some time to get to know your scent and identify that you are not a threat, but usually once this happens most snakes are happy to be handled.

20

Which snake?

forSnakesBeginners

Is it for you?

For beginners, most experts would recommend a corn snake or a milk snake. Anything overtly large, venomous or a large constrictor is definitely not suitable for those new to keeping snakes for obvious reasons. It is essential to seek out an experienced breeder, because trapped wild snakes can be very difficult to handle, may have mites or disease, and can be picky about live feeding as opposed to frozen food. Corn snakes are usually a good bet and come in a variety of colours or ‘morphs’ as snake lovers call them.

Well, snakes don’t smell, or shed hair around your house. They don’t require twice daily walks, or constant entertainment, and usually are far from sociable, meaning you can easily keep a single snake. On the other hand, they can live for a very long time, and will require roomy accommodation, heat and light, and again, there is the dead rodent aspect.

Habitat Speak to the breeder about how large your snake will likely grow. You will need a temperature controlled vivarium which is properly secure,

21

Health

Some breeds, such as the Ball Python (named for his shy habit of curling his large body around a small head) can often go on hunger strike. Usually this will be self limiting, but if your snake starts to look thin or unwell, he needs to visit the vet. Shedding is usually done with the skin in a whole piece; if your snake sheds in sections, this can also be a sign of ill health. Take care to make sure all dead skin is removed, gently bathing around eyes and mouth if flakes are left behind. Most vets should be fine with treating snakes, but it is a good idea to find one who takes a special interest in exotics to ensure your pet can always access the best care.

Feed

Snakes are fascinating creatures that can be both rewarding & educational

Pet snakes are usually fed on a diet of frozen rats and mice. These will need to be thawed before feeding, and perhaps warmed slightly in colder weather. They are fed roughly on a weekly basis, but check with your breeder as to the best feed and feeding schedule until you get to know your snake better. They will also need a regular supply of fresh water, in a heavy dish that can’t spill too easily.

as snakes can be quite the Houdini and squeeze through the smallest of gaps. Because snakes lead fairly sedentary lifestyles, the vivarium doesn’t need to be huge – roughly half the length of the stretched out snake is a good rule of thumb. Snakes thermo regulate, meaning you will require cool and warm spots, with a heating pad which does not cover the entire base of the tank. Humidity needs to be regulated according to the breed, and rocks / shrubbery will provide some entertainment too. The tank will need spot cleaning a day or two after feeding, and a full clean every few weeks.

Who’s Prettya Boy?

As with any captive animal, space is crucial, so make sure you have space for a roomy cage, and consider letting your budgie out to spread his

It isn’t difficult to understand why. These friendly, brightly plumed little birds are actually parrots with the hooked beak and 2 toes on the front and back of their feet. They have a reputation for intelligence and affection towards their owners, and can live for 10 or more years under the right conditions.

22

The English Budgerigar has been kept in captivity for centuries, and is the world’s most popular domesticated bird.

In a range of blue, green and yellow shades, budgerigars have also been bred with crests and brighter, more unusual colour combinations. Find a reputable local breeder who has a good stock of healthy birds, or speak to a friendly pet shop who you know deals with good breeders. Both hen and cock birds ‘talk’, but hens tend to be slightly less friendly and harder to train. You can house budgerigars in pairs, although do bear in mind a mixed pair will probably breed.

If you want a same sex pair, cocks are likely to have a better relationship, although 2 hens can work.

Food wise, speak to the breeder to see what they recommend, but a good quality budgie mix can be purchased from pet food specialists and should provide a varied diet and plenty of mental stimulation too. Millet sprays are available as a treat, but not too often as they are high in calories and can make your bird overweight.

If you want a bird that is hand tame, you will need to talk to breeders who do a lot of socialisation at a young age, and continue this, gently, at home. Unless you don’t mind being woken at dawn by your budgie chattering, a light sheet or cover should be placed over the cage at night, which will keep your budgie feeling secure and stop him waking with the lark, as it were!

Make sure the budgie is located where he will not be exposed to aerosols or any harmful fumes, which include fragranced candles or plug in air fresheners, and check to ensure your houseplants are not poisonous.

When do you actually decide your cat is missing? Well, you know your pet’s routine. Do they usually come running home at breakfast time, or perhaps

ensure your cat is microchipped –nearly all vets and rescue centres have a scanner and will be able to locate you if your pet is bought in to them.

first place to search is inside the house. Cats can be very good at silently sleeping in small, dark places, so before you get your walking boots on, search the house carefully. Outside, take a torch and something containing their favourite biscuits or treats. Check outbuildings such as sheds and garages, as cars can often shoot in unobtrusively, and a neighbour might have missed them slinking in. Listen well, using the treats to create a noise, as a trapped cat can often be heard.

when you return home from work? If they break routine and you are worried, then it isn’t too soon to

Cats

If you have ever had a cat go missing you will know what an upsetting experience this is. Some cats do go wandering; although they are territorial creatures studies have shown that some cats have quite large territories, and when nature calls, some do stray.

Indoor only cats can sometimes escape – usually they will not go far having only a limited territory so make sure you check all nooks and crannies in your home and garden. A cat used to indoor space may well find the outside world a scary place, so search very carefully in case your cat is hiding in Forfear.outdoor cats, the reality is that they may often roam far and wide – many cats can have a territory of quite some size and may be used to spending large parts of their day away.

Check dark corners with the torch, as even if the cat remains silent, the torch may give away the glow in their eyes. If you live close to open fields or wooded areas, your cat may well have strayed too far on a hunting expedition, so it is worth search here

Missing Pets

Dogs

Losing a dog can be extremely traumatic – like losing any member of your family the sense of loss and grief can be overwhelming. Add in the feelings of worry as to where they may be, whether they are hurt, lost or frightened. It may be that your dog has escaped from an unsecured garden, or been scared outside and bolted; if that is the case, often they will range close to home and be relatively easy to find, so get out immediately and start looking.

have become hot property amongst pet thieves, with some breeds commanding prices of £1,000 or more. ‘Designer’ breeds like Chihuahua’s, Staffies and Pugs are in particular demand, but many other breeds are also desirable, changing hands for far more sinister uses than simply selling on to a new owner. Dog fighting is on the increase, and some breeds are being stolen for use as bait dogs. Most dogs are stolen whilst unattended in gardens, so make sure your outside space is completely secure and don’t leave your pets outside unattended for any length of time – it is far easier to be vigilant than follow up with a theft later on. Do not leave them tied up outside shops or alone in vehicles either.

If initial searches yield no results, the next step is to involve others. Put up posters, at eye level, and approaching regular dog walkers is a good idea as they may well have spotted the cat on their routine walks. It is also a good idea to check with the council and local vets and shelters to check if any cats matching your missing cats description have been found, and to make them aware to call you if they are in future.

Use your usual call or whistle, and check your usual walking routes. If you are unlucky and don’t find him quickly, contact your microchip provider, vet and any local rescue centres to be on the alert. It is also wise to get moving on photo flyers, which can be placed near your home, anywhere the dog is familiar with and hopefully, at the local vet and rescue centres.

Lastly, social media is an excellent place to look. Local interest pages are a good start, and most areas have a lost pet’s page which you will be able to post on.

25

Some pet insurance companies have plans in place if you think your dog is lost or stolen, so it is worthwhile giving them a call to see what they may be able to suggest.

Sadly, some 1750 dogs were reported stolen in the UK last year, figures which don’t take into account unreported thefts and are unfortunately on the increase. Pedigree dogs, especially smaller ones

If your dog is stolen, do report it to the police. Also make sure the loss is reported to the local dog warden and that of neighbouring councils. As with any lost dog, report to your microchip provider, all local vets and anywhere else the dog may be dumped or taken for treatment.

Very sadly, some cats may have been hurt or worse, and never return, and some miraculous cases have trekked home after months or even years away, so keep searching and hope your moggy makes it home.

Social media has been used with increasing success in recovering lost and stolen pets, reuniting dogs with their owners even after many months. Don’t lose heart, and keep searching –visit www.dogtheftaction.com for more advice.

There are dozens of dog breeds to choose from when thinking of getting a family dog. But not every dog is suitable for every family and your purpose for the dog should be a leading factor for you to get the best breed. Different dog breeds behave differently too, making it even more important for you to approach the selection part of it with care to get the best for your family. Below are some considerations that will help you pick the best dog breeds.

...Choosing your Dog

The dog breeds have varying coats and if you have sensitive members in the family then this s a very important factor to consider. Longhaired dogs can prompt some allergies, but you can find breeds that shed less compared to others. Shedding can also interfere with how clean the house is so if you do not have time to keep up with all the vacuuming then you might want to consider a dog breed with less shedding. Generally, longer coated dogs shed more than those with shorter coats and wire sheds less than silky hair. Also important to remember is that the coat can play a role on the appearance of the dog with some people finding long coated dogs appealing and beautiful than those with short coats; it would be a matter of preference.

What to consider when...

the dog breeds for your family, it is important to remember that some breeds are great with children and some are

It is an important basic factor you should not forget when getting your dog. Size includes the weight and the height of the dog. Larger dog breeds might be very good for those with enough space whereas miniature dog breeds would be best for those in small apartments because they are smaller and require less space. Consider the age of your children when getting the dog so you don’t end up with a breed that poses danger to small babies.

but not every dog is suitable for every family and your purpose for the dog should be a leading factor for you to get the best breed ”

A very important consideration to make because some breeds are active more than others and high energy breeds will require that you have enough space for them and might need regular exercise routines which include runs and walks. When getting a high energy breed, then you must at least have an energy outlet plan for it otherwise it might turn to be destructive around the home as a result of boredom. Trainabil ity and intelligence are the other helpful factors to consider when looking at dog breeds because dif
