Taylah has always had cats in her life, but since she started living with her partner, no more. One day, they decided to take a look at their local shelter. ‘We left without any kittens,’ Taylah says. That's what she thought... Her partner decided to surprise her with one! ‘I came home later that day and discovered that my partner had brought home adopter Ralph,’ she says.
Finding a friend
A year later, they felt Ralph could use a friend. So they went to a shelter and decided to adopt Judy, who was named after Judge Judy. ‘My cats mean everything to me. I would be completely lost without them! I will have cats until I die.’
I have a bed, but I'd rather lie in yours
Her cats not only have their own room, but daain of course a scratching post. ‘We have the Kilimandjaro,’ says Taylah. ‘Judy's favourite place to sleep and lie down is on the second highest level of the tree.
Although they have their own room and scratching post, they still love to snuggle up with my partner and me at night. They usually then lie between my partner and me, wrapped in one (or both) arms.’
