Hello and welcome back to the Pets Factor! Last week we asked you if your pets loved or hated the snow.

And it seems that the dogs are absolutely loving it!

But meanwhile, it seems that the cats are preferring to stay inside and cosy, like Wallace and Barley here, wrapped up in a blanket.

I think this wins best picture of the week! The abominable snow–dog, Angus!

And here is our SSPCA pet of the week, Felicity! Felicity is a funny little character who is patiently awaiting her forever home. She is currently being cared for by the Scottish SPCA Highlands and Islands Animal Rescue and Rehoming Centre.

Felicity is a very playful ferret who loves lots of attention and enjoys being made a fuss over. She will make you laugh while she chats away and jumps around playing.

Any new owner will need to make sure she has lots of exciting toys to keep her entertained and stimulated.

Felicity is great, fun and is going to make a great pet for the right person who has lots of time to give her.
