Other than his Mum & Dad MR KITTY'S two loves are playing and dinner time!.....and can this cat PLAY! he loves running through his tunnel, playing on his cat pole, playing with balls which bounce BIG time! running like a maniac! all through his palace or playing 'catch the light spot' when his mum Kate shines a beam of light from a torch on the main wall of the living room....oh purrfect fun!!
And as I mentioned he loves food too! more a meat & potatoes bloke than anything too exotic! He dines on a tin of wet food for breakfast & Dinner + has a varied selection of different Bikkies to munch on during the day
Oh and did I mention he his spoilt!!
MR KITTY appreciated staying in his own familiar surroundings however being a bit of a mummy's boy he really missed his Mum and even though we had some gggreat games he was very happy to see his Mum finally walk back through the front door!

SOMETHING DIFFERENT...... BOO & FLINN
When we started our Pet Sitting Business being 6km from the CBD in Brisbane we didn't think we would have the opportunity to care for any pets classed as farm animals!
For 2 blocks of school holidays we have cared for BOO the pot belly PIG and FLINN an old work HORSE who live in Tingalpa with their family....and it has extended now too chickens who live with BOO and a Thai fighting fish who is in a bowl up stairs in the house! + a furry kid Doggy who goes else where for his holidays!
BOO & FLINN have a great easy going life style in their very generous 'back yard' which has the stable and pen. 
FLINN dines daily on 10 liters of loose green hay and 2 scoops of horse food pellets and for afternoon tea he had a few treats from the house eg carrots, bread and other veges. When the weather is cold and rainy he has a good Strong coat to keep him extra warm and dry in his stable.
BOO dines on a special grain formula - 2 cups for brekky plus 500 grams of thawed(frozen veges) and afternoon tea has a 
selection of fruit and fresh veges. He also enjoys his daily mud bath! chasing the chickens and going for walkies on his harness!...and when asked to 'SIT' he will do so for food! he is a very clever, determined and strong little PIG! And NOT for getting the CHOOKS....they dine on 2 cups of grain daily and their greatest challenge is to eat it before BOO gets back to the pen after his WALKIES!!
They all get along famously and live in a very BIG yard together! And I am sure you will agree that it is fantastic for city of it's size that Brisbane children still have the opportunity of calling animals such as Boo & Flinn ....family FURRY KID pets!

MOTHER & DAUGHTER TIFFANY & MISTY returned for Easter Holidays
No difference in friendship...still the best of friends & follow each other every where....difference in SIZE now!
Misty when she last visited us at Xmas time was only 4 mths old and was a little floppsey puppy! Now she is over double the size and continues to enjoy belly tickles and loved playing in the yard with a new fiend Matilda. They had a wonderful time, however most times of the day she remained faithful companion
to her Mummy Tiffany.
Tiffany/ tiffy had increased in size too...around the waist line! So she wasn't encouraged to indulge in too many carob (choc) tops on Easter Sunday Morning! She was sporting a very attractive new Hair Style too. As always she was a very good house guest and when ever the opportunity was there she would roll over for a belly rub! so much so that she went home with a rather red belly from the rash that had developed...I think she over did allowing everybody..and every furry body to tickle her too!
We look forward to seeing the girls again, next time Mummy & Daddy visit family in Sydney.

PURRFECT HARMONY for the FURRY & FEATHER MUIR KIDS
Meet the MUIR KIDS.... Felines CLAUDE & XAVIER BUDGIES SATAN & SELVESTER
I had the pleasure of caring for them when their Mum & Dad Trudie & Brenton went on a South Pacific cruise recently.
CLAUDE older House Brother to Xavier is a RUSSIAN BLUE. He is 4 years old and he Runs the palace! He is a very independent furry kid and his motto is the less fuss the better! He has to be in the mood to accept your attention and affection! He would rather self scratch & play on his cat scratching pole and often on the move...so he was difficult to photograph. He also has to be in the mood to use his kitty litter.....and purrfers going right next to the litter instead!
The flip side to this is XAVIER. He is a 1 year old LAYANESE. He was quite happy to pose for the camera, and could think of no greater pleasure than you brushing his coat all day! He loved a cuddle too.
He saw the fun in playing with the ribbon from his Mum's valentine's 
flowers she had received, or playing in his Hot Pink eucanuba cat tent.
The Palace of Brothers MUIR is shared bravely by two other house k
ids SATAN & SILVESTER Budgerigars.
They live happily cherping to each other all day and have lots of nice bird treats and toys to keep them busy.
They didnt like the Camera very much.... obviously they like to keep a lower profile incase the boys get this close too!!
I will look forward to seeing them all again in September when their Mum & Dad go on their next adventure.

HOME STAY GUEST INDIGO SHERIDAN INDIGO is an 8 year old Boxer who stayed with us for 3 nights while her family had a long weekend in Adelaide enjoying SA wines! 
INDIGO is a lovely placid Boxer who took the 'chilled out' approach to life! She was very well mannered too though it did get a bit noisy watching TV in the evening ..... for her snoring was very loud!
She loved her dinner each evening of a can of Pal and loved been given a treat too. The other big event she looked forward to each day was Walkies. Indigo suffers from arthritis and is given daily medication though nothing stops this proud Boxer of a good walk every day.
On the Sunday afternoon we all went for a walk on the Wynnum Manly esplanade and she became very animated when we saw small fox Terriers and any breeds that resembled German Shepherds. She loves a good drool too, however we removed all evidence of this before we snaped her photographs.
She was very happy to see her Mum Fiona for she is a much loved and spoiled furry kid!....which is always gggreat to see.
