We love our pets whatever they do don't we. In my old garden I never had many flowers on my heathers because Fluffy used to run her teeth along all the shoots and spit the little buds out all over the path ! lol. I was left with just bare stalks !

lol crazy pets we have Blodyn

Dont know about pets eating your strawberries,i grew some a few years ago, & every time i got some ripe, the grandkids came & had them, i could think to myself i'll have a bowl of strewberries with some ice cream after my tea, & guess what 1 of the grandchildren would come & when i'd go to get some they had gone.I think the last time i grew them i did'nt get 1 that year, so now im having ago at growing tomatoes, see if they like them as mutch, im not into growing veg, so i'll have to see how they do.Its a good job i love my grandchildren.

yep clairice its a good job you love them... hope you at least get to eat some of your tomatoes this year

Me and my son were having a competition this year to see who grew the strawberries on either side of our veggie plot - well we finally had enough for a bowlful and although he said they tasted "seedier" than the shop ones he was most impressed (and he won!!) I even grew some little alpine ones just to show him the difference in taste but like all men he thought the bigger the better!!!

lol sounds like a good competition

Bea loves Strawberries so il have to keep my eye on her when mine start to appear !

good to know its not just my dog that likes them lol

Genuisscuffy, I'm a man and I think " small is beautiful ". You can't generalise : )

lol blodyn

Well I wish people wouldn't talk such rubbish. Between that and people locking their cats indoors for 20 yrs it's all geting on my nerves. I think I'll go and make a cup of tea.( a "small" one lol ) :)

We have a big fruit cage with Strawberrys Raspberrys ,Gooseberrys , Blueberrys , Blackcurrants ,
You might think that sounds good , but it is the only way that we might get some of the goodies , yes it,s squirrels ,
They tear the net open and then sit on the fence taunting us with their little fists full of fruit , blackbirds then go through the holes to choose their favourites , I am constantly trying to repair the holes ,
I gave the grandchildren Strawberrys in pots to take home so that they could watch them rippen before eating them .

lol sounds like the squirrels and blackbirds are working together. lets hope your grandchildren get to eat theirs b4 anything else does
