Ginger and Timmy
These two young cats are regular guests with Notting Hill Cat Company, and although Ginger the larger of the two cats, still gets a bit shy on arrival, Timmy, with his shiny black coat and clear eyes, is immediately at home. He wanders around with his tail up, giving the furniture a cursory rub, before hopping up the cat stairs and taking his place on top of the kitty cloud, a platform bed where our feline guests can relax, undisturbed. It doesn’t take long for Ginger’s gentl

Ginger and Timmy
Ginger is a large cat with beautiful markings in shades of orange that swirl around his body, legs and tail. His eyes are the colour of caramel and match his fur perfectly.

When I go to check on them I am relieved because the bedroom is quiet and sunny and apart from the distant beat of music, they seem undisturbed.

Round Two with Hummus Rocky Glass
I'm ashamed to say I spent my second day with Hummus hiding in the bedroom, while he hid under the sewing machine table. I'd talked to Leah (Hummus's owner) earlier that day and she was very concerned that Hummus was not settled and that I was banished to my bedroom. She gave me similar advice to Anita and said definitely don't approach Hummus when he's hissing and make sure you're safe. I worked and ate in my bedroom but at some point I would have to go back into the front r
