Creature Comforts winners

In our April issue of Door to Door, we invited you to share with us how a pet, creature or wildlife has changed your life in recent times for our prize competition.

There were 3 prizes up for grabs, and we’re pleased to announce the following winners. All received vouchers for Pets at Home to buy some supplies for their pet or wildlife to enjoy!

“I keep budgies and they have been my rock in uncertain times. They give me something to focus on. When I shut myself away with them, feeding and talking to them gives me a release from daily pressures. They are such cute and funny little things that can cheer you up.” Denise

“Roulla, you changed my whole life when I welcomed you into my home, you saved me when I had a diabetic attack by waking me up so I could get help, when I collapsed, you were there, you are my rock, my world, my everything.” Kerry

“A good dog became my lockdown companion. 11 year old Oz. The graceful loving German shepherd friend. There by my side. Walks in the open fields. Home and hound, my wellbeing lifts. He’s now in doggy heaven but Oz had love to give until the end and saw me through the difficult lockdown blues. God bless him. Amen.” Helen

We also received the following entries by email and social media:

“Enzo has given me a reason to get up in the morning, and as he is particularly chatty cat we have conversations, usually about mealtimes, which apparently according to his clock, are always late.” Violet

“My name is Milo. I’m a huskador. I love walking, playing… my adventures are awesome.” Natasha

“We rescued Charlie 18 months ago during one of the lockdowns. He has brought a lot of happiness to our lives. You are never lonely with him here.” Catherine

“Hetty helped through lockdown, she gave family walks a whole new meaning, and makes us laugh every single day.”Sarah

“In January 2020, I gave a home to Jody. In June she gave birth to 2 babies. I named them Jellybean and Jackie. This was my lockdown pastime, caring for my rabbit family.” Jill

We’d like to thank everyone for their entries*!
