Pets and Animals

  • Meet Midnight

    Meet Midnight

    Midnight had decided she was a free-range guinea pig. Unfortunately for her, even free-range guinea pigs still need their nails trimmed.

  • Goodbye, Little Darling Trick

    Goodbye, Little Darling Trick

    She lived up to her name from the very beginning — a tiny guinea pig who brought years of mischief, memories and love.

  • Loving Life

    Loving Life

    A beautiful view, breakfast, and the sound of happy birds — sometimes that is more than enough.

  • Bird Logic

    Bird Logic

    I bought them a nesting box. They looked at it and decided what they really needed was building material.

  • My Little Garden Helpers

    My Little Garden Helpers

    My guinea pigs and silkies may not know it, but they’ve been quietly running the fertilising department of my garden. 😂

  • A Promise of Harvest

    A Promise of Harvest

    A tiny lemon bud and a few freshly laid eggs were enough to make our little balcony garden feel wonderfully productive

  • Meet Charlie

    Meet Charlie

    Meet Charlie — newly arrived, already curious, and apparently very interested in office equipment.

  • Meet How

    Meet How

    A little dove somehow moved himself into our aviary. I’m calling him How, because I’m still trying to work out how he got there. 😂

  • Flick on Wheels

    Flick on Wheels

    When Flick lost the use of her back legs, a tiny set of wheels helped her keep doing one of the things she loved most — getting outside to the grass.

  • New Address: Ceiling Fan

    New Address: Ceiling Fan

    Two of our birds decided the aviary was no longer suitable and upgraded themselves to a new residence: the ceiling fan. Naturally, the fan was no longer ours to use. 😂
