Bubbles is home!
After 8 long months missing, my cat Bubbles has been found and is home again safe and sound. We are beyond excited and happy to have our lovely boy home again. Thank you for all the support over the past months, it was greatly appreciated during such a difficult time. It was so distressing not knowing where he was or what happened to him.
I know some of you will be looking forward to having a visit from Bubbles as he does his rounds in the neighbourhood, but for those of you who don't enjoy his visits, please give him a squirt with your garden hose as he really hates that and it just may deter him from coming back, or if you have a water pistol, keep it loaded and in a handy location for quick easy access to squirt him. You never know, you may actually enjoy it! Feel free to contact me and I can supply you with the water pistol if you like this option. I know he can be a nuisance and I understand your concerns, but please remember he's not just a cat to us, he's family. Please be patient as we are not here long term and will be leaving the neighbourhood once our house is built.
Bubbles will be locked in over night and we'll do our best to keep him home during the day when we are home.
And finally, for those of you with missing pets, please, never give up hope.

Changing the conversation around dementia
Reducing stigma starts with the words we use, and shifting the way we talk about dementia is a powerful step forward. This World Alzheimer’s Month, Ryman is highlighting the importance of reducing the discrimination caused by stigma surrounding people living with dementia.
Caroline Bartle, Ryman’s Dementia Care and Innovations Lead, says that using appropriate language when referring to people with Alzheimer’s and other types of dementia can foster a more inclusive society. This not only benefits those experiencing cognitive decline but also their families and the wider community.
