With the weather getting colder and colder in Sydney I thought it was about time to start unpacking the winter gear. It’s not just us humans who are feeling the cold. My little tropical fish were starting to look a bit small, I think they’ve either contracted in size with the cold weather or they’ve been shivering so much that they’ve lost weight. Either way I’ve turned up their heater to keep them nice and toasty, but not too toasty. When my mum first got guppies she set the heater a bit too high and lets just say her aquarium phase didn’t last very long.

Along with the fish my little pup (well she’s not really a pup anymore, she’s 11 years old now) Sammi was feeling the cold too. When I came home the yesterday she was on the fleece blanket all curled up in a little ball, the poor little baby was so cold.

Here she is in this years winter jacket. I love that it has a hood with faux fur trimming, kind of makes her look like an Eskimo. Next time I take her out, I’ll have to make sure we’re not wearing matching jackets.
