@essentialsonair The police have posted an update that the individual has now been arrested

@m_veganbeard One could also argue that calling them ‘pets’ also implies a language of dominance and ownership where they’re better described as companion animals/ furbabies 🤔I think we’re all on a learning journey

@LilyBaileyUK I'd tell my piggies that I love them so much and also that they should stop putting their schnozzle up each other's bums because it just makes them both cross with each other and it's unkind 😀

Just a friendly reminder that customer service staff have feelings too. Screaming at them non-stop for things completely out of their control and resorting to personal insults is not acceptable.

@bertsbooks I've just finished The Proper Care of Guinea Pigs by Peter Gurney. A lot of the advice is outdated however Gurney's shere enthusiasm and love for guinea pigs makes it well worth the read. It got me reflecting on all the amazing little quirks I love about my own piggies 😀

I've recently started a new job and they're making it really difficult for me to have my therapy appointments. I've had to cancel one appointment already, and, in spite of sending them a letter from IAPT, they're not responding to my emails. I've waited 18 months for CBT 😰

@Bristol_CLAH @MarinaGaletaki Congratulations Marina!!

[Lottie Brown @OCDthePhDandMe]

@OCDphilosophy I hope so!

[Lottie Brown @OCDthePhDandMe]

I very politely challenged someone's misconceptions about OCD today, acknowledging that I was sure no ill intentions were meant, and this is the response I got... 1/2

[Lottie Brown @OCDthePhDandMe]

"I'm not gonna bother posting anything anymore. People are moan moan moan. What's the point?!! Use to enjoy this group. Think there's more important things in life to be moanig about my post. Rant over". I'm so fed up of society not taking OCD seriously #ocd #mentalillness

@ChrissieFadipe @haypigs @GuineaPigMag I have, but it's been 10 years since so I still get worried about absolutely everything because they're so precious! Thank you I will be sure to send questions across! And thanks for the recommendations

My partner and I have been waiting for this moment for so long but we're finally piggy parents!! #guineapigs #fureverhome

[Lottie Brown @OCDthePhDandMe]

Last week my partner and I moved into our first place together. I'm so happy to be living with my favourite human in the whole world. So, I took this opportunity to write a new blog post about it.
