I hope something comes of the various websites, and it is certainly worth a go.<br /><br />Thank you for your kind comments about Truffle's pulchritude and intelligence! She will be well pleased with that. Obviously Rusty is used to being an indoor cat, with fewer jumping opportunities overall vs the great outdoors.

White bedding holds a particular attraction, especially right after they have come in from playing in the flower beds on a damp autumn morning.<br /><br />Thanks for your good wishes in my new pet sitting venture!

It is fascinating how cats love that 'king of the castle feeling', peering down from the battlements. That is very much the look Truffle gives me from her kitchen cupboard eyrie. Good job it isn't an actual eyrie or I would fear for the birds, even ones of prey.<br /><br />Love 'disdainful dowager'.
