Past Pets

Buffy Chinchilla

Buffy was the second chinchilla that Karl got 6 years ago, as a mate for Chilly (rip). She's a flighty young madam, and doesn't like to be bothered. She's getting better, and doesn't mind handling too much, but loves nothing more than running out in the hallway. She's had several kits now, and won't have any more. 

Shelldon Chinchilla

Shelldon is Misty's litter brother and a little menace! He's a nippy boy, but not nasty, or even nervous, he just nips you to make you let him go. He's very impatient! He's a big fluffy lad though, and quite entertaining to watch. He has always ruled the roost! 

Pepper Chinchilla

Pepper was an older kit of Buffy and Chilly's from a previous litter. He was kept not only because of his lovely temperament and pretty colour, but because as a baby he had a facial abscess due to getting food stuck in his mouth. We decided not to let him go after that. He's definitely the underdog in the cage, but a darling nonetheless. By far the most handleable! 

Dudley Dog

Dudley is a big silly Labrador cross that was found on a roadside in West Cork where Laura's parents live. He had been dumped, and countless attempts to find his owners proved fruitless. He had quite bad hips when he was found, presumably from a bang, but now he is perfectly well. He's nervous around people still, and has some minor behavioural issues, but he's a darling member of the family, and one we wouldn't be without for all the tea in China . He is getting much better in his behaviour, and is a bit like a child! He's spoiled rotten, and thinks mum and dad are his personal slaves!
