Did you know that this month is National Pet Month?

  10. Hi, Didn't know about pet month though I reckon my 'boy' Leo does. He's our Ragdoll tom and has a real need for staff to open/shut doors and generally wait upon him! Loved the pic of your leaping panther cat! Looking forward to seeing you at V&H next week.
