MADGE, HUBBELL & ARNIE, WILDBLOOD & QUEENIE

Since we first met we’ve always had some feline action in our life and our current rulers Madge and Hubbell are heading towards their 13th year with us. Defiantly in charge of the roost, they keep us in check and fill each day with affection - depending on the supply of fish fingers and custard obviously.

Arnie, the latest addition to our household, is a two-year-old rescued mutley from Portugal who joined us two weeks before lockdown. He is the dog we never knew we needed, fulfilling the cliché of becoming the rescue dog that rescued us. It helps that he looks exactly like a cartoon of the ideal dog Queenie would have drawn if asked. And after much bribery the three of them all get along, especially when Madge is in charge of the aforementioned fish fingers, and although there is definitely less room on the sofa for us humans since he arrived, Arnie has filled this year of the unknown with the certainty of love. Unconditional, overexcited, love.
