    What is your pet peeve?

    * unscrupulous backyard breeders who keep a dog for 11 years as a breeding stud, then give him away "free to a good home" (and probably lie about his real age) and don't bother to take the details of the "good home" much less update the microchip details ... * people who dont look for their...

    need help with my cat..

    I'd rather overreact than underreact ... I once thought my "kitten" (yeah, so he's 5.5kg and 18 months old about) ate some red neurofen I'd put on the bench ... rushed him to the vet where he spent the day having his stomach pumped three times and then force fed charcoal ... I had just started...

    Strathfield Mansion Opinions

    I'd prefer a home with history in Strathfield as I don't like the big massive pretencious houses with postage stamp sized back yards - like the big beasts they build on Wallis Ave - but that's just my preference - each to their own ... I remember babysitting one for a house in Strathfield that...

    Advertising a rental as 'pets considered' on re.com

    Maybe also consider the desexing of the pet ... ie one cat is great, but if she isnt desexed then it leads to more than one ... same with dogs I think I've read on here that someone let their tenants have a dog or two - but they turned out to be breeding and the puppies trashed the garage or...

    Does strata have the right to ...

    Hi sydprop - yeah I don't care if strata is out of pocket - I'd just like to see if I could get them to pay for my brother's tiling :D ... I know things are tax deductable - but it would be so much better if I could get them to pay! Its more the fact that they'd damaged the base of the shower...

    Does strata have the right to ...

    Do repair work on your property without your knowledge/permission or notifying the property manager? I'm also on the commitee and havent received any notification through that either ... I wouldn't be surprised if they don't "have" my current address but my phone number is the same ...

Its a reserve with some swings and some minimal equipment which is rarely used ... In summer I get games of volley ball played at the back in the late afternoons - of the...

    Ideas for eco-friendly houses

    Stray bale house is totally my dream - I love that you can design it simply around the sizes of the bales or get more creative and do curves etc ... I am usually a person who likes historial homes - but I figure this way - I can create a house that works for me and recycle compenents with...
