I have always loved cats, ever since I was a little girl they have been one of my favourite animals. My neighbours when growing up always had cats and I always looked out for them and gave them treats when they came to our garden. Fastforward a couple of decades...my husband and I have had six rescue kitties. The first two, Sirius and Regulus, came as a bonded pair. Sirius was a pure black cuddlebug with a purr as loud as a freight train. Sadly we lost her to heart failure in the middle of 2020 and we still miss her every day. Regulus was a little more reserved but gradually became a lot more cuddly - a handsome tabby and white furball. We lost him in 2022, again with heart issues, he was never quite the same after Sirius passed. Bella came to us in 2019 - she is a skittish young soot sprite with a loud shrieky meow who loves to sit endlessly on my lap so i never get anything done! We adopted Orion several months after we lost Sirius in the hope of providing a new friend for Regulus as he loved to have another cat to groom and Bella doesn't allow it. He was a big friendly older tuxedo boy who climbed on your shoulder & purred in your ear. We lost him in April 2024 to kidney failure. The loss of 3 beloved friends over a relatively short period of time was a tough time for us and we miss them all. They were all different characters and our lives have been richer for them all. Bella was for 6 months the only cat in the household & we then brought home Luna & Lily, two playful, food obsessed 1 yr old tuxies, who have plunged a relatively calm household into chaos (at least at mealtimes!). I first joined Cat in a Flat as a sitter in 2017 and have had the privilege of meeting and caring for dozens of beautiful cats of all shapes, sizes and temperaments, and their lovely humans! For your kitty to be happy and comfortable is my main priority and I will always do my best to ensure their needs are met. I try to be flexible as possible with my availability - I work a full time job during the week as well. I usually do morning visits before I start work & afternoon visits when I finish.
