Pet sitter
Nearly all my family were away for a while this month. Joel & Frances & kids went to New Zealand for a couple of weeks. They toured around the South Island with friends in a camper van. At the same time, my sisters Relle, Jan & nephew Callum were in New Zealand - in the North Island. Both groups had planned their trips, not knowing the others were going! Meanwhile, my other son Ben went to New Zealand to work in Wellington for a few months. Talk about coincidence!
Of course this meant that I have been busy living in 3 different houses, trying to keep all the pets happy. Not Ben’s – Agnieszka is still in Sydney looking after their 2 cats, but I spent most mornings with Joel & Frances’ cat Alex & Flloyd the cockatiel.

Then there were the magpies that came every afternoon for a handout while the neighhbours dog Charlie supervised.

The evenings, I spent at Relle’s place with Digby and Mrowdy, her abyssinian cats.

Digby was very cuddly, but Mrowdy was a bit aloof.
and the rest of the time I spent with my own cats, Ollie & Fluff.
