    Why walking your dog and putting out bird feed may not always be the best thing to do (opens the original)

    Just when you think you know it all, someone smarter comes along and fills your mind with doubt, and, if you are sensible, actually changes it for the better. Take my dear old, long departed Gran, for example. When I was a boy, she would dab my grazed and bloodied knee with pure, undiluted, straight disinfectant, holding her soft, wrinkled hand over my mouth to stifle the screaming, and telling me confidently that ‘if it doesn’t hurt, it is not doing any good’. I swallowed it, of course (the phi

    We’ve not had a quiz on ‘Vet’s View’ before, so here goes. No Googling, thank you. No cheating by peeking is allowed. (There is a huge prize for the winner. Simply write to the Quizmaster, c/o The Editor, who will completely ignore your request.) Question number one: What links Border terriers, the Netherlands, Greece, and horses? Yup.

    If there is one thing that Covid, E.Coli, foot and mouth disease, bluetongue virus and salmonella have taught us, it is that we can’t always clearly see the dangers around us with the naked eye. No matter how cautious we are (although scrupulous hygiene usually mitigates), minuscule particles can be every bit as destructive as a hammer, and it is generally not possible to reliably identify the source of infection or disease, or put the blame for it, on any one individual. (Unless, of course, it

    You might have heard about the cowboy who rode into town wearing a brown paper hat, brown paper shirt, brown paper trousers and brown paper boots, and was promptly arrested for rustling (and I don’t think he was really cut out for the role). But in our countryside, that is no laughing matter. In its Rural Crime Report 2026 (covering 2025 data), which was released in late May, the insurance company NFU Mutual stated that the cost of rural crime in the UK amounted to £41.5 million. Farm animals wo

    Bluebell was certainly lovely to look at, and she did like a cuddle, but she hid a dark secret. This mild-mannered, British Blue cat was typical of her breed. With origins dating as far back as the first century AD, the shorthair cat was imported into Britain by the Romans, who used them to keep their camps clear of snakes, mice and insects. Interbreeding with local cats evolved the breed. Harrison West, then a key figure in the cat fancy world, showcased them at the very first organised cat sho
