14/05/2026

It is with the heaviest of hearts that we announce that our beloved Oscar the pug has sadly gone to heaven at the grand old age of 17½ years old.

Oscar was more than just a dog — he was family, a loyal companion, a gentle soul, and a friend to so many who had the pleasure of knowing him. His little face, loving nature, and endless devotion brought comfort, laughter, and unconditional love every single day. The house feels far quieter without the sound of his paws and his wonderful presence.

We here are all absolutely devastated at the loss of our precious boy, especially his human mummy, Kate, who loved him beyond words. She kindly asks if people could please give her a little bit of space over the next couple of days as she comes to terms with losing her best friend.

Run free over Rainbow Bridge, sweet Oscar. Thank you for 17½ beautiful years of love, cuddles, and unforgettable memories. You will always be loved, forever missed, and never forgotten.

With all our hugs and kisses,

Oscar’s human mummy, Kate x
