I had horsemeat kebabs in Russia drizzled with vodka, they were ok but it was in the time when there were food shortages and long queues, so any meat was welcome. When you are hungry you'll eat owt!

He is an unusual pet yes. But I love him

His fave food is cucumber and lettuce, he eats lots of it but I just get it from the market or asda, it's cheap enough!
Anything else he gets, is our leftover veggies, and that's a treat, lol x
