I saw the movie Poor Things. Dark fantastical comedy/social commentary done very well. Kooky aetherics, excellent costumes and brilliant acting from Emma Stone.

It's getting a bit warm out there already. Mr Woof and I just had a short walk to drop off some garden produce at the food cupboard, I wouldn't want to go for a much longer walk at the moment, especially in the sun.

Sometimes I like to go look at animal adoption sites, I like finding the animal with the silliest name and photo. Today I thought I'd look at the Pet Rescue which is not my usual place to look, and WTF is with their adoption fees! Maybe I'm being unreasonable but up to $1.5k to adopt a dog... There were 400+ listed in VIC alone, and I can kind of understand why! For that much you could go get a brand new puppy sans all the issues that come with adopting a potentially mistreated dog.

I get it's probably to deter people from making rash decisions, also folks who can afford to drop that much can also probably afford to care for the dog, and making sure that the dog goes to a good home, but it just seems insane to me.

Edit - I listed the wrong site. Sorry to The Lost Dogs Home for that one. Yikes to me!

Not sure where you are looking, most of the dogs I could see were $85. The most expensive was $800 for a young puppy.

Ted Cat was $400 on pet rescue. Pedigree but loads of problems. Bill was $160 at rspca, same pedigree and he's been an awesome boy.

Those prices include all the medical care .
