16th April 2022
Such a lovely day at the centre today, with (as always) so many beautiful, wonderful cats.
Lumi and Charlie the sweetest best friend brothers, Tiger from last week who is one of the most
affectionate cats I've ever met and it's difficult to leave him because he loves the company and
attention so much - he has Cerebellar Hypoplasia but very mildly and it doesn't really affect him.
Then there's Minnie just a young little love whose owner didn't take her when they moved, poor girl,
and another brilliant, lovely sibling duo Honey and Penny.
Trevor was next and I don't know why but it seems that the boys have been the super
lovey-dovey cats of late and Trevor was a prime example of a lap cat!
Another pair of brothers who have literally been in care for 4 months now is Milo and Star.
I've no idea why they've been here so long because they are the most laid back, gentle,
pure little souls... Thankfully they are finally heading home soon!!
Last but not least is my first kitten of the season - Jaffa.
I don't know how I managed to get a photo of him sitting still because he was so playful.
As kittens should be.
When leaving the pens I make sure to tell every cat that they are loved. I hope they all thrive in their furrever homes.
Of course, it was Full Moon day too, so here's April's 'Pink' Moon.
17th April 2022
Worked out a way for both the piggies to be out in the garden at the same time but still separated.
This is the first photo of them 'together' I've gotten in years!
They also sat on our knees beside each other chatting without too much hostility.

The gardens are in bloom!
After losing the greenhouse, we repurposed the old hutch into a cold frame so we got it
filled and the courgette and cucumber plants transferred into it this past weekend.
We also got 2 of the new bird tables put out into the front and I had to get a photo of
the blossom tree in bloom because it doesn't last long!

Anubis 🐍🌞
This boy is coming up approximately 22 years old in the coming weeks!
Our old boy is the most friendly, sociable and easy to handle of our 3 snakes and while cleaning
everyone out today, I thought I'd take him out to enjoy a little bit of sun for a few minutes.
I grabbed Mr H so I could get a few shots of Anubis loving his time outside ❤️

Very sadly and very suddenly, Mr H's boss lost his dog a couple of weeks ago.
Knowing how much pets mean, we wanted to do something for him.
This is the second time Little Bear and Us has provided her talents and taken on our commission and I'll never be able to sing her praises highly enough.
The whole process is fantastic, from ideas and keeping me included with updates,
to the cutest packaging and incredible extra personal touches.
If you are looking for a gift or to treat yourself you will not be disappointed in choosing
Little Bear and Us to capture your pets, kids or the whole family 🎨🖤
