Love her (?)..
Doesn't like walkies how I wish!
The new BEAST (sughero) woke this morning at 5:50 with a howl like a banshee!  Had no idea at first what it was but went downstairs to investigate. Neighbours thought it highly amusing to see the mad Inglese out in the Piazza in his dressing gown "walking the hound" for his first pee break...

Hi all!
Meet my new Rodent control officer Barry, a real nice guy... just  come in from the local rescue centre.....
(I have NO clue how to turn the pic,sorry)

This is our two cats Fergus & Flicker. Aka catzilla & kitty kong.
You never find them on the layout, but you know the movie monsters have been at work, stock derailed,  buildings dislodged, whiskers and cat hair every where.....

Barry is ± 1year old(or young) and I already found that nothing that flies, lives long where he is for the moment that translates as insects guess I need to keep him in the house until all little birds are fully fledged..... 
Hope he is as good a mouser; also hope 1.10mtr. is high enough to keep the trains safe.
It looks like waiting with the cat, until most wiring was done, has tuned out to be a good idea...

1.10mtr will be nothing for him, both cats I had were able to leap and scramble to the top of a wardrobe about 2mtrs high, your trains are DOOMED 

cheers John.

I can always make him his own layout and put Thomas on it:

We have had several rescue dogs over the past 25 years, all have been characters with stories to tell, not many railway related.  The first was this hulking great wimp of a German Shepherd who used to chase lights.  Car lights on the bedroom ceiling could lead to agony!         :'(

At the time I had my Z gauge 'coffee table' layout and in typical Marklin style several locos had lights.  Cleo would chase the trains round the layout trying to bite the lights!

Still miss her.  Current daft collie is sure she is Queen of the roost.

I once knew a lurcher called Sadie who was the same; Queen of all dogs,animals *and* humans......
She was a great dog!

This is our Millie the day we got her, at the age that a kitten can be taken from the mother....


That's her in camo mode 


That's her not letting us move a mattress


And her waiting for me to come home

She certainly has bags full of personality lol
She likes carrier bags, and loves it when she's inside one and gets carried around in it!!!!

Okay, I guess I'd better add some of the critters that let me share their home.

When I had my heart attack eight years ago it was decided that we should have a dog to make sure I got some exercise. Luckily the dog is lazier than I am. This is Marshall, a combination of Labrador, Alsation, Akita and Staffie. He's a stupid as a sack full of monkeys but he's a great dog.



A few years ago we adopted a Border Collie while we were on holiday. An affectionate little thing that's had a pretty hard life but she's very happy now. This is Honey.



The dynamic duo



We have a Cockatiel with a really bad attitude and three tanks full of tropical fish.

This, of course, isn't enough for my Daughter.

Tibbles the rabbit.



She has had a wide variety of small rodents. So here's the cute section.













At the present moment my daughter has three hamsters, three mice and two Gerbils that she inherited from my Mum. My wife has four mice and the most recent addition is a pair of Guinea Pigs (no pictures of them yet, they're still too scared.)
