Bean is 4 today! (An estimate as he was found on the streets.)
Here is a throwback to when he was a kitten.
He still investigates and pats everything.
Bean brings so much happiness and chaos to our house. Love him to bits. 😻

Bean loving his new cardboard ball track
Bean loves this corrugated cardboard ring.
It's a cross between a scratching post and a ball track. It moves when he pats it, which means he 'kills' it more.
This video was from when it first arrived. He now has stretched it so he can get inside. Sometimes I wrap it around a small table to make it different.
Both Bean and our little cat play with it most days.
(It was a present from a client so I don't know where it is from.)

Cat's Paper Bag Fun
It is recycle week!
There is so much fun for cats by reusing items before recycling them.
Paper bags are often a favourite. 😻
If you have any large paper bags, please can you save them for me? As I like to take a new, clean one to each set of visits.

Wirral Whiskers is 4 today!!!
Thank you very much for all your support and for using my services.
I would also like to thank my family who are behind me all the way. (Especially my husband who is on the end of the phone for advice about door locks when I have trouble.)
Tonight I'll be celebrating with cake. 😻

Thank you very much to my little one who drew my cats for me to use.
This is a time lapse video of her drawing our runt cat.
Squirrel waiting for breakfast
This weekend I was away house sitting. Mrs Squirrel was waiting for me to finish feeding the pets so she could have breakfast.
The day before, she took a nut out of my hand. 😻
Two young foxes came for their tea as well. I was watching out of the window but it was too dark to take photos.
Both pets were so lovely but the best bit was when the cat slept with me at night. Unlike mine, it didn't bite my face for food at 4am.
The last month has been really busy so I'm planning on updating my website today with all the new pets.

Kitten loves her ferret toy
I usually check my messages last thing at night about 11pm, and before I go out on visits at 630am.
In the mornings I'm keen to get round to feed all the cats. There has been lots of traveling between visits too this week.
I did a visit this morning and was worried someone had been in. As I was leaving, I let the owner back in as hadn't seen her message sent at a normal time. 🙀😹
It was nice to have a chat. Plus hopefully I wore her kitten out for a bit.
Sorry to the kittens mum!
Cat Playing
Sometimes, paper bags are the best toy.
Even though this bag was too small for Hubble to climb in completely, he gave it a good go.

Older cat playing
Thanks to my mother in law for all the new cat toys dispatched this week!
She'd wrapped my husband's birthday presents in this paper which all the cats have loved.
This is Chumley who is a older gentleman of about 18. He's not always keen on new things but this was a hit
Chumley makes me laugh as he tells me what he wants to do. He will sit near the sofa and meow if he wants a cuddle. If he wants to play, he'll go to the window.

Purring kittens happy on first cat sitting visit
Need the sound on to hear these two purring machines.
These are new brothers for two gorgeous black cats.
They weren't scared of someone new visiting. They just wanted cuddles and play.

New water fountain for the cats
Daisy-Bear was interested in the new water fountain. She wasn't sure at first.
The little monster just drank the water out of my cup though.
I'm pleased to say that the fountain is silent as advertised. (So I don't think we have a leak.)

Cat killing a cat nip carrot toy
Happy Easter!
Bodhi liked his Easter present - a cat nip carrot kicker I'd made.
How cute is he?

Love their furry little faces.
Cat using puzzle feeder for the first time
This little kitten is gorgeous!
He tried out my new puzzle feeder with the new 'natural' freeze dried prawn treats.
Definitely a hit with him.

Happy cats
I just wanted to share this video of two lovely brothers.
They are rescue cats and on the first couple of visits, one of them hid under the sofa. Then all of a sudden, they decided I was safe.
Have sound on to hear their purrs.

Happy rescue cat playing
Another of my cracking videos.... 😹
But look how happy he is. 😻😻😻
He enjoyed everything - food, playing and cuddles.
At the initial meeting, he climbed on my lap and couldn't get himself close enough to my body.
His three feline housemates were just as adorable.

Making progress with nervous rescue cat
I wanted to share this massive progress with our nervous cat, Fermi.
Not only did she let me sit on the sofa when she was already there bu tI was able to stroke her.
She wasn't keen and jumped off the sofa - she didn't run away though.
Chief testers trying out the new activity feeder.
This was the first time they tried it.
One cat at a time would have been best but little one didn't want to miss out
Not bad for partially sighted Bean!
This one was £5 from the Range. It is for dogs but it certainly works for these two
