Introducing Buster Bloodvessel...

Hello all, as promised we are pleased to introduce you to another of our special cousins Buster, he picked up the nickname Buster Bloodvessel when he was a bit of a naughty Pupster but he's a laid back chap now, here is his diary for you:

Buster here..... a first cousin of Louis, and 2nd cousin of Dexter, Darwin and Henry.  I've just come in from an afternoon reclining on the swing seat and decided to introduce myself properly, this is me relaxing!
Buster chilling!
Well it's OK for Dexter to have a fellow playmate with Louis and it's OK for Darwin to have a fellow playmate with Mia, Henry has Scruff & Whizz, but who am I lumbered with??? Two Ragdoll cats AND..................... a tortoise, I ask you!
So whilst the others play fancy games, go training together and go for walks in the woods, what do I do for fun?  I'm left to snatch a cabbage leaf from the mouth of the blooming tortoise (she's called Flo).  To be frank it's not too bad as she's only around for 6 months of the year and sometimes I do even get the odd taste of her melon.  I mean a chap can't leave leftovers in the garden for the blackbirds can he?  By the way, I'd soon see any birds off anyway, that's my job isn't it?

Buster's Lettuce Diet
So what about the others?  The Raggies?  Well, Barney (the one with the brown paws) is dopey and dozey and to be honest not too much of a problem.  Just occasionally he likes to get snuggly with me, and that's really not on - two males together - so I have to jump off the sofa when he does that.  The only time Barney caused problems was when he kept weeing in my bed when I had a crate as a puppy - no doubt some feline territorial scent mark - UGH!!  So, on the whole I'll give Barney the thumbs up, but the OTHER ONE - my goodness do I have to keep him in check.
Buster and his feline buddies

He's called Socks, because he has white socks on his front feet (not very original is it, you'd have thought they'd have come up with a more original name like mine eh?) and he's a mischief-maker.  His head is always twizzling round looking for the next escapade.  And worse - he has claws!  And boy once those claws are enmeshed in my beard, I have to fight to get free.  You can imagine what The Beard looks like afterwards....However, there are compensations as I do get to share their toys, including this wonderful cat cube (I think red suits me).
Hey, put those claws away!!!
I'm a Celebrity, Get me out of here!!!!
No doubt you'll hear from me again;  I really must tell you about my Powerful Puppyhood sometime!
Thank you Buster for that little look into your life, we look forward to hearing more of your escapades! Dex & Lou x

Hi Buster,you are are a real cutie. Not sure about the cabbage diet though. I usually find waiting until the humans throw scraps for the birds a good time to go in the garden. Nothing like a bit of fruit scone to get you started in the morning!!

Hi Frankie Furter, Flo the tortoise hibernates for about 3 months of the year and the other 3 months is spent preparing for and emerging from hibernation. At present Flo is having a wonderful time as she basks in the sun, unlike me - I prefer to dive for cover UNDER the swingseat.
