Here are Sphinx Cats, Purdey and Dollar! I don't think I've come across a Sphinx cat in the Highlands before, but judging by the names these are some fancy felines!

And our SSPCA pet of the week is Beuy! Beuy is a Belgian malinois cross border collie who is looking for an experienced new owner with the skills and patience to continue his training.

He is a very sweet boy and loves affection from his human friends. However, he is very reactive to other dogs and is easily overwhelmed in situations he finds stressful. He has been responding very well to training and would make a loving companion for someone that would be committed to continuing this.

Beuy, currently in the care of SSPCA.
