I have had to look after inherited caged birds in the past but I would never again.

I think it's a horribly cruel thing.

I've been the pet human of a number of cats over the years but I find it too distressful when they die or get injured and I've also discovered that I am allergic to them (I used to think it was hayfever).

Animals seem to like me though and Chateau Bingowings frequently plays host to a variety of strange critters.

We had Starlings in the roof and there is a rather enormous spider hiding holding court behind our telly box.
