Pets’ Mews: Issue 22

Hello Hello, Well, it’s here.  The latest issue of PM has arrived!  And it’s packed full to the brim as usual.  We’ve been having quite a few electrical storms here in the UK, but luckily, we’ve got Weather Plushies @misterfish511 to paw to guide us through the weather wows, Dušana to guide us on what to wear, plus loads more too. …

A Magical Reindeer Ride

There’s surely only one way to travel when you’re in Lapland and of course, that’s on a reindeer sled (OK, there are two, or three, or possibly many more, but since Tipsy didn’t go on the Dog Sledding or Snow Mobile rides, and she’s not one for skiing or skating, she’s sticking to this philosophy).  And this was a great, …

Pets’ Mews: Issue 7 – Snowtastic!

Hello there, Thanks for joining us for the first Pets’ Mews of 2017. We had a lot of fun last year, and were chuffed to bits to find out that you are truly global readers.  We love being able to help us Pets, Plushies and their People connect, build bridges, and share our fun with each other around the world – …

Tipsy Cat at Christmas at Kew

What can be more festive than oohing and aahing at twinkly lights and wandering round an enchanted garden (with a clever flask of mulled wine) on a frosty December night?  On the recommendation of a couple of Tipsy’s Little Pet’s colleagues – one of whom had provided the handy hint of the pre-prepared mulled wine (you can also buy mulled …

Pets’ Mews: Special Edition, Christmas 2016

Festive Greetings, to you Dear Friends, We started this blog earlier this year, and we haven’t quite made our first Instagram birthday yet (celebrations to come in March 2017), but we’ve already had so much fun.

Yummy Manor House / Countryish Cake

Ingredients 140 g (5 oz) self raising flour 1 teaspoon baking powder (we made sure it was really level, because we were thinking of Mary Berry watching us in our imaginary tent). 115 g (4 oz) light soft brown sugar (although, my Little Pet used dark, and actually, it was fine) 2 eggs, beaten (we like using Waitbose* Intelligent Eggs, …

Tipsy Cat at the Cataratas: Foz do Iguaçu and the Lunar Rainbow

After seeing the falls from the Argentina side (more about that in a future blog post), we hopped over to Brazil.  The Belmond has the happy position of being right inside the park, and we were in the happy position of staying there, as Miss Tipsy Cat had more or less planned our whole trip around a particular event – and …

We’ve tried to pack in as much as we could – I’m sorry we couldn’t put in more of your Mews, but if you haven’t been featured in this issue, hopefully you will be in …

Bakewell Pudding and Tickley Things

Bakewell Pudding – Yes Please Now, did you know that Bakewell Pudding and Bakewell Tarts are two different things?  The famous pudding which gave the village its name (well, according to Tipsy anyway), was supposed to have come about from a misunderstanding.  The happy accident occurred when the mistress of the White Horse inn instructed her cook to add an …

Tipsy Cat and Chocolate

Tipsy Cat and Chocolate go paw-in-paw, so when she heard that we could stay at a chocolate plantation, she jumped at the chance.  The hacienda was run by an American couple, who offer fine dining experiences and welcome guests with suavva – cocoa pulp juice with rum – and traditional patacón – banana fritters, named after ancient Spanish money (and …
