Omg 😦 Riley’s insurance has come through for renewal . Animal Friends- superior 2023 - £37:67 month Annual - 452:04p 2024 - £65:23 month Annual- £782.04 p I can’t believe how much it has increased. Elsa’s has not come through yet but it is currently £36:75 We have decided to start a standing order into a savings account for Riley for £50. We just can’t afford the increase not with Elsa’s insurance too it’s just to much of an increase .🥲😦 Wow, that's a big jump. I changed Kobi's to John Lewis Insurance for £21.08 per month. It's not a great amount I can claim, but it's something, up to £2,000 per year. There's an excess of £100 and 20% co-payment.

We were lucky , apart from when Tobi became quite unwell , pancreatic problems etc at the end he cost us £12,000 but again we had the money accumulated so didn't have to find much ,
Good Luck with it all everyone and chantel
Its very difficult knowing what to do , atm chantel that equates to £1.50 a day for security , but if its not used it will have been dead money. x

Still looking but putting in her name in search this came up so thought l woukd bring it fwd again 🤭🤣
Just re visited this poem l wrote when l was chatting to meandmine We had a beautiful Springer called Trinket, she was a lovely lovely girl, and it broke my heart when she went to the bridge.... so much so that I said No More dog's it's too heartbreaking, I can't go thru this again ( obviously I was very upset at the time ), we lasted 18 months until this......
GUESS IT WAS MEANT TO BE
Was late one evening, in the middle of the week A phone call came, for a home they did seek A Puppy called Tobi, so sad but true... Who was no longer wanted Now what should I do ?
See it was 18 months now, since my heart got broke And "Never Again" were the words I spoke So to the caller I said, leave it with me.. I will give it some thought, and get back if we agree
Well late on Friday that call came again What had we decided, did we want him or not ? As when Saturday comes, that's his lot If we didn't take him, it's off to the pound.. We are very sorry, but we can't keep him around
Saturday Morning a car pulls up I can see the people, but where was the pup ? As they all climbed out, my heart missed a beat Up popped this little face, oh my word, you looked so sweet
So off to the kitchen, for a cup of tea With Tobi in tow, running merrily Off into the lounge he instantly fled And up against my couch he cocked his leg
The look on my face was a picture to see But, I'm still thinking... Is this meant to be ? So over a cuppa, we talked about you that day And decided your here now, so you may as well stay
Thanks for blessing our lives for 10 years Tobi xxx

That's good to know lotsofcats. I try and avoid the self-service tills as much as I can, I prefer to go through the maned till.
