CUDDLES 'n LUCY - Mistresses of the house

I could not resist introducing you to the Mistresses of the House....Cuddles and Lucy.
















'Cuddles' our Burman cat. Our little darling was born on the 9th February 2002 and she runs the house. She was Babes birthday present and her young spirit gave our darling cat Opal an extra lease at life. She kept him fighting on until he passed away in his 17th year. We miss him but are very lucky to have Cuddles.


'Lucy' our Spoodle.

On May 3rd we introduced little Lucy to the house. She is an adorable black and white Spoodle who celebrates her birthday on the 16th July ('09). I rescued her from the horrific 'Valley View' Dog Farm but unfortunately she came to us with deep emotional issues. Judging from her overly timid state the first 10 months of her life had been a living hell.
















We have been watching her confidence build as she starts to accept that she is now safe and loved. We still have a long way to go with her which is apparent when we see her tremble with fear around men or when she experiences something new. I am totally smitten, especially when her beautiful tail wags and she uses her bewitching smile. Babe came home with a big 'Daffodil Day' yellow ball which she loves to play with in the back yard. She is a a very smart little cookie and now knows what "Play" means.
