Mickey & Maisey




Mickey & Maisey
After my husband and I bought a fabulous country property, we soon realised that something was missing and that was a pet.  I have always had horses and also I desperately wanted a dog.  But as we both work full time, there is no way I would get a dog only to lock it up 10 hours a day.  So for the 1st time in my 45 years I considered a cat, so that weekend I headed off to Llyns Nini.  While at the centre it dawned on me, that one may end up lonely in all this space.  So I thought maybe I should “consider” two.

(excuse me a sec Mickey has just arrived and is demanding chicken!!)
Ok am back now.

Anyway, that is the day I saw Mickey, then when looking for a staff member to seek further advice, I spotted Maisey, I enquired if it might be possible to adopt the two, was told that if it looked like they would get on, then yes, so they took them to the back room to see how they got on. 
That was over 2 years ago and they haven’t been apart for a day since.  It must have been  meant to be.
The four us  have gelled together.  John and I are besotted with them.  They are so spoilt, now they won’t eat wet cat food, they are far too posh for that now, Maisey eats fresh fish, Mickey adores cooked chicken.  They snack on bickies inbetween meals.   To be honest I could ramble on for hours.  We love them so much, I cannot imagine being without them.  I still want a dog one day, it won’t be for a while for the same reasons, and if one does come along,  well that could turn out eventful !!!  But I am sure we will all get our heads round it. 
Thank you Llys Nini xxxx
