From an early age I have always been around cats. My Nan lived on a farm and she had seven domesticated cats along with many more feral farm ’working’ cats.
The black and white cat with a lovely moustache in the picture of a very young me was my first ever cat.
Through my life cats have been a part of my journey and today I have fostered over 60 cats for Cats Protection Forest of Dean Branch.
My own three cats Barney, a British shorthair blue, Berite, a British shorthair black, and Basil, a Selkirk Rex, ginger longhair, are constant companions to me and provide me with plenty of training opportunities be it nail clipping, grooming or the odd behavioural issue.
