:wave: my doe willow was STILL growing when she died aged 22 months old. When she stood on her hind legs..her front paws rested on the kitchen worktop:shock::shock:
she was 3 months old when we got her and our puddy cats were 6 months old. They were with her 24/7 and she was as norty as they were:lol:
she wrecked everything..every morning shed destroyed something else:lol:
after she died i discovered a whole loads of my books minus their spines and covers:shock::lol:
bertie is way much smaller than her..hes over 5kg in weight..he was 10lb/5kg when i adopted him aged 18 months.
i will say in my experience i found the does to be the rambunctious norty ones...bertie more laid back and cuddly.
but thats cos willow prefferred berties company to ours and she adored running riot up and down the stairs doing the cat mad dash at 2 in the morning with the cats!! berties never ever even tried getting up the stairs.
i have found THE perfect litter tray for a big bottomed frenchie..esp one who likes to pee up the side of the litter tray as high as poss!! its £12.99 from dee millen. sounds too pricey but belive you me ive spent many times more than that over the years trying to find a pee over the edge proof litter tray!! its a corner one with a frontdrop down to the ground.
forget cages..use playpens..or like bertie has..the lounge kitchen and hallway!! he used to share his huge scooby doo tent with bif then willow but willow chewed the bits the poles go into in.
you can buy huge harness and leads for frenchies from the online shop at ross rabbits.
toys need to be big enough too!!! the huge jingle ball is a fave..as are footballs to push around.......anything they can chuck in the asir...even your armchair..no only kidding..but willow did give it a try:lol:
one advantage is once over 6 months you can relax more cos they cant squeeze into little spaces!! BUT they can reach heights little buns can only imagine!
the fabric tunnels for kids to play in are ideal for frenchies..even out in the garden.
this thread has a picture of an adult mini lop next to a french lop!
