I’ve had my beautiful cat, Alan, since he was a kitten. He’s now 15 years of age, and he has grown into an adorable friend. For a tom cat, he’s so affectionate and sits with me all day, every day, sometimes going under my jumper for extra warmth and cuddles.
When I come in from being out somewhere, he’s waiting for me on the banisters and gives me a kiss as if he’s saying ‘hi Mum, you’re home!’
All I can say is my cat Alan has been a godsend to me; he’s been there through some hard times for me and he’s the most precious and best friend I could have. I love and adore him.

A Cats Purr
"Cats make one of the most satisfying sounds in the world: they purr ...
A purring cat is a form of high praise, like a gold star on a test paper. It is reinforcement of something we would all like to believe about ourselves - that we are nice."
