You can’t teach an old dog new tricks

While it may be more difficult to train an older dog than a young puppy, it is certainly possible to teach an older dog new behaviours and tricks! Perhaps like many of us as we age, there is a vast difference between what we ‘can’ do and what we ‘want’ to do.

Rabbits are low-maintenance pets

While rabbits may not require as much devotion as dogs or cats, they do require a significant amount of care and attention, needing regular exercise, a healthy diet, and routine veterinary care in order to stay healthy and happy. They also need lots of love. This doesn’t mean cuddles as such –not all rabbits like to be held – but socialisation with other rabbits, fun things to play with and general interaction.

Cats and dogs are natural enemies

While cats and dogs may have a reputation for not getting along, many cats and dogs can learn to coexist peacefully and even become friends. With proper introductions and socialisation, cats and dogs can learn to respect each other and live together in harmony… even when Felix keeps nabbing the best spot on the sofa.
