Customer Gallery
Here are photos of some of my customers. I find it really hard to narrow it down to one photo of each pet!
Tarzan
Tarzan took longer to warm up to me. Fortunately I was house sitting so I was able to pet him regularly until he liked it. It was a momentous occasion when he accepted a kiss on his head. Like his name, he was very much an adventurer.
Pepsi
Pepsi was hard to photograph as the nights were drawing in and she didn’t keep still. Any toy was prey!
Pendle
Pendle is the perfect puss – doesn’t go outside for too long, purred most of the time and loved to sleep next to me even at night. She could always be found in a warm spot.
Calcifur
A gentle giant who loved company. He would often have a cheeky swipe at his sisters fluffy tail as she walked past.
Mei
Mei was a shy little girl who took a while to come out of her shell. After a week she was joining in with playtime.
Sally
This is the smallest, happy, purr machine I’ve met. Usually found playing in the sink with the plug.
Nova
Nova had an extra toe and looked like she was a chameleon. She liked to keep me on her toes and didn’t always come in. Very much an outdoor cat as she liked watching the squirrels. That’s why I love this picture of her wanting a cuddle.
Duchess
Duchess was wary…. Until she heard my treat pot. We built up trust slowly and she let me clean her eye and brush her a little.
Bubble and Squeak
Two little cuties that loved their morning treat. Was so funny to see them run away with it. Very happy with a new tube to shred.
Bubble and Squeak
These two were happy little piggies that ate a lot. I love it when guinea pigs eat their vegetables… unlike my children.
Teddy Bear
Teddy Bear had recently lost his friend so I made sure he was spoilt and loved. He loved his supper of parsley and mint.
Oreo
Just thinking about Oreo makes me smile. He loves a fuss and to headbutt all the time. Not a lap cat but wanted affection as well as a little play.
Newton
Newton was more shy than his brother Einstein. However, on the second visit, he settled inside and let me stroke him. It wasn’t long before he was purring. If he was outside, he preferred to play or watch than be stroked. But he came for every meal too!
Einstein
A friendly, happy chap who was always pleased for company. He was very much an outdoor cat so I was very relieved when he came in for food every tim
Monty
Monty was an outgoing and playful boy from the start. I was surprised he wasn’t interested in the degus.
Katie
Katie was timid on the initial meeting and the first visit. She soon came to trust me. Gentle unless you were a cat toy.
Carlo and Mario
This was the first time I cared for degus since college. They were adorable! A bit nervous but would come to take food from my hand.
Lyla
Another fluffy black cat. She was a bit unsure on the first visit and I had to bribe her with treats to come in. After tha, she was my new best friend.
Delilah
Fluffy kitten! A little purring ball of happiness. Everything she did was at top speed which made me laugh. Very friendly and loved interaction but not a lap cat.
Benji and Bunji
Budgies with the cutest names. Bunji didn’t have a tail but both were friendly. Such lovely little noises and my teenage son enjoyed having them here. (He’s not usually interested in the visitors.)
