Hi I'm adding this warning here as not sure of best forum to put it on. I've just seen an horrific picture of a baby who was very badly burnt when a hose pipe was turned on to cool him. The heat had raised the temperature of the water left in the hose to such a level that the poor child will probably be scarred for life. Please please check that the residue of water isn't hot before using it on anyone including animals.

Thanks Digging I wasn't sure how to add the pics. Let's hope people take notice of it. It's something you wouldn't even think about when using a hose.

Bit of advice from RSPCA. Regarding caged animals in this heat. Rabbits, Guinea Pigs etc would benefit from a bottle of frozen water put in the cage for them to lie next to & keep cool. Probably won't stay frozen for long but anything that helps must be worth a try.
