*** EDIT - Thank you so much for all the applications so far. Please send in any further applications by 8am Monday 18th July ***

🐶 Unfortunately the latest applicants on trial demanded to stay the wrong side of the desk and their client identification method of sniffing bums was exceptionally accurate but not always that well received…

🧑‍💼So if you enjoy talking about (and to) pets ALL day, we’re STILL looking for a full time receptionist/office administrator to join our small animal team!

👋 We’re seeking a confident and personable individual to join us - you’d be the first face that our clients and pets see, so it’s key you can provide a warm and friendly welcome.

🩺 No prior veterinary knowledge is necessary, full on-the-job training is provided as you go.

🕰 You will be required to work 5 days a week and 1 in 4 or 5 Saturday mornings.
Weekday hours are a 7.5 hour day, either: 8am - 4.30pm / 9am-5.30pm /10.30am-7pm

🏝 Annual leave is 4 weeks + bank holidays

📜 For more information please apply with an up to date CV to [email protected]
(Humans only please - sorry 🫣)

Mummy bird had made a beautiful nest at the end of the cattery (storage area).

Great idea - dry, warm, safe.

So quickly the babies are growing and now playing IN the main cattery area - so not safe with all the kitties 😳

My renewed license has arrived!

I remember in 2019 - achieved high standards, 5 ⭐️ and a 3 yr licence - that 2022 was so far away. Most of that time has been Covid stop/start/restrictions and the concern of it all.

5 ⭐️ till 2025 now - I do wonder what will happen to the World in the next 3 years…

The clocks have turned, nights are drawing in but you can still soak up the November sun!

For others they patiently wait for the heat lamps to come on 😻

Yesterday’s sunrise was beautiful. Some of my guests making the most of the early autumn bonus ☀️

A super sunny Sunday slumber for some just before the showers 😽

Mum and daughter - the young one keeping me on my toes! Very, very good at hide and seek in her holiday home 😻

This is Charlie. He and his owners are off to a new life in Yorkshire. We’ve just all said our goodbyes ☹️

I have known the owners since I opened my cattery. I’ve cared for their faithful companion Max (sadly no longer with us) and now Charlie (their new fur baby) who is sooooo cuddly.

Wishing them all the very best for the future and thank you again for the chocolates x

A few newbies (hiding on day one but by day two finding their feet and soon they’ll be out and about).
And some regulars in for their holidays. They know the routine and the food lady!
Happy days 😻

Was not expecting so much gorgeous sunshine. Lovely to have the newbies welcoming the food lady now and not rushing away 😻

I know the owner will be longing to see some photos - first time these beautiful ladies have stayed with me. Quite rightly very cautious of the strange lady...she brings food, treats, cleans and lies on the floor - we will pose for her!

How lovely to have owners going on holidays again.

Ok, just UK holidays 😁

But what beautiful weather the owners have had (and us) in the last 10 days. ☀️
