Phoebe's Story

- Phoebe was our most loving cat we have ever had he was a male but with a feminine name.. we adopted Phoebe when we found out that we was going to move house for the first time since locating in Cornwall... we had just moved to our new place and weren't ready for any animals as of yet but instantly a friend found out he was going to be put away.. He wasn't wanted as he was the runt of a little so we took him on...

- We gave Phoebe the nickname koala kitty as he would greet us every morning by leaping up on to us and wrapping his paws around our necks like a koala... he give us the best hugs ever... never did we think that he would be vindictively taken away from us from a very nasty neighbour which caused so much trouble.. This evil neighbour moved in below us in a small but spacious flat below our house we have a 3 story town house above. its a beautiful quirky house but had the flat below as a separate place.. she was the 4 person to be down there and as you do we introduced ourselves but 2 days past and she turned she picked on our garden first and destroyed mostly everything..

- We didn't really think she would touch phoebe but on a Saturday night we called him in for his food and usually he would be straight in but we couldn't see him we thought nothing of it as cats do like to wonder but Phoebe would never go far from our home and never into the road...

- We gave it a couple of days and just knew that she had taken him away from us as she would act so suspicious and twist everything... we had police, RSPCA. environment health even the pandemic thrown at us we lost family and we even lost phoebe we were gutted and we all really miss him.. Nothing was done about her but she was kicked out and no one cared because she had a problem and now we panic every time as she took our beloved phoebe away from us.. we haven't seen him since..

Tango's Story

On a cold Friday we decide to go and get some shopping in Morrison.. A severe storm was issued for that night and we just happened to walk out of the stores front doors got half way though the car park and heard a very faint meowing heard someone say it was just something in a tree nearby but i had a weird feeling and went to take a closer look...

Went over to an embankment and the meowing got louder got closer and tucked in a ditch next to a tree we found this tiny ginger and white kitten.. we were so confused and thought it escaped from a house nearby but we couldn't just leave her there as the storm was approaching and though it was just fate as we wanted another one but was that ready. Immediately I tucked her in my coat and we carried on walking home..

That night it was a big thunderstorm and we just knew that she wouldn't of survived the night outside.. the next morning we put her on social media to see if anyone lost the litter but no one came forward so we took her to the vets got her checked over and we kept her.. She had no name until a week later when she was used to our home then we decide on a name... we knew it had to begin with T and was looking in the fridge at the time and we had cans of Tango in the there.. Instantly thought thats the name.. Tango!! she has grown to be a beautiful loving cat and has learnt from phoebe a lot even though they didn't get on as much as he was male... we ended up about 4 months later to getting tango and sister and we then got Turbo.. They got on so well and are the best of friends they have their moment but they all got on so well..

also pictured was our loving tortoise shell cat Lilly she passed away in October 2019 she started of life as a feral cat and her previous owner who passed away.. We ended up with 4 cats all different ages lost 1, had one stolen and now left with 2 Tango and Turbo..
