We spent well over two hours at @marwellzoo, enjoying the light installations, indulging in the food stalls and cafe, toasting marshmallows and even meeting Father Christmas! 

Glow Marwell was such a nice way to kick off the festive season - and it’s on all the way through December! If you’re looking for a really nice festive activity the whole family can enjoy, this could definitely be it!

Multiple family members can use the same subscription, all posting messages to be added to one gazette - and sharing the cost of the subscription too! It’s great for parents, siblings and children to all share their news with grandparents each week, fortnight or month.

The children get to upload their own messages to their grandad and it’s definitely made them feel closer, building a stronger relationship despite living far apart.

A whole week of Fred & George. We weren’t meant A whole week of Fred & George.

We weren’t meant to get more cats just yet but sometimes the universe sends you things when you don’t expect them.

These little guys needed a home and a family to love them. And we had a home and a lot of love to give. We still miss Leia but this pair are definitely helping make me feel whole again.

They are both used to us now, and love us. They’re less nervous, give us cuddles and let us pick them up. They’re still living in our spare room but starting to explore the rest of the house under supervision. 

They play fight constant. Love toys, especially a crinkly feather thing on a string attached to a stick, and love being up high. They are an awesome pair and we are so glad to have them.

Thank you @millbrook_rspca @rspca_official for trusting us with ‘Lonestar and Starfish’. We could not love them more.

This half term has been pretty lovely. Troy had his school residential the first weekend and then we had a really lovely few days in Norfolk before heading home and picking up two new members of our family - Fred and George. 11 week old rescue kittens who have pretty much stolen our hearts.

It’s been so nice to have a chunk of quality time with this pair and now I’m looking forward to the Christmas holidays. These two are the best company and I really do live for the school holidays. 

How has your half term been?

Understanding Our Cat’s Behaviour with Lily’s Kitchen | AD

*This is a paid post

Dogs are just so easy to understand. You know when they want to be fed, when they want to go for a walk, when they want a cuddle. But cats are a whole different ball game. Our cat, Leia, is constantly looking for attention but at the same time she is fiercely independent and will always do exactly what she wants to do. But, Lily’s Kitchen recently sent Leia a hamper of goodies along with some tips and advice for us from professional cat expert Ellena Hinson to help us understand Leia’s behaviour a little bit more.

Understanding Our Cat's Behaviour with Lily's Kitchen - and Giveaway!

Ellena’s tips talk about helping a cat to be more affectionate – something that we’ve never had a problem with where Leia is concerned – she wants all the cuddles all the time and would occupy the exact same space as us if she could. But, Ellena’s tips on getting Leia to try new foods really helped – as Leia pretty much just eats one kind of cat food and turns her nose up at anything else.

Understanding Our Cat's Behaviour with Lily's Kitchen - and Giveaway!

But, using Ellena’s tips to give her food when the house is quiet, feed her somewhere private where she can relax and give her space to eat really helped and Leia loved the range of food that we were sent from Lily’s Kitchen – I’m not surprised though, it’s a lot better quality than the food she is used to! Full of high-quality meat, grain free and made with no meat meal or fillers, only natural ingredients they are taste sensations that Leia had only dreamed of before. She has been in cat foodie heaven since they arrived!

Understanding Our Cat's Behaviour with Lily's Kitchen - and Giveaway!

Another aspect of our life with Leia that Ellena helped with is trying to stop Leia scratching the furniture – something both her and her brother have always done. Ellena suggested giving Leia an actual scratching post and putting it near to where she sleeps so that she can exhibit this typical cat scratching behaviour but somewhere suitable that won’t hurt our furniture! We will be buying a scratching post at the next opportunity.

Understanding Our Cat's Behaviour with Lily's Kitchen - and Giveaway!

I love finding out more about why cats do the things they do. Did you know that if your cat follows you around the house it’s a compliment? The cat actually just likes to be near you and is looking for attention – it’s really that simple. Also, why do cats like to sit up high or in the smallest of spaces? They are places where they feel safest. And that kneading thing cats do with their paws? It’s something they do to show affection and stems from nursing milk from their mothers. They do it and purr, their version of self soothing, often whilst they get comfortable and go to sleep.

So, Leia’s behaviour makes complete sense when we take the time to learn about it and understand her a little better. Plus, we’ve been giving her Lily’s Kitchen food, following the guidelines on transitioning her to the new food, and she seems happier already. Lily’s Kitchen is easier to digest, is full of omega oils for a shiny coat and the perfect balance of nutrients for heart and eye health too. Leia is enjoying it and she definitely looks healthier for it too.

    I have 2 cats, both decided to come & live with me! Peppa belonged to a neighbour 2 doors down but when they moved house, not far away, Peppa decided she wasn’t going to live there & came to me (dunno why, she seldom visited my garden before). No matter how many times they came to fetch her, she would always return to my garden. So eventually I agreed to keep her.

    Ginger has been with me just over a year now, again decided to come & live with me. He was a tom until about 3 weeks ago, used to go roaming most of the day and usually stayed out overnight. But since having his nuts chopped off he’s turned into a right little mummy’s boy! Wants to sit on my lap all the time & is happy to just sleep or sun bathe in the garden all day. At least he’s stopped fighting – took him to the vet loads of times due to wounds.

    One of our cats is a rescue cat who has been with us 9 years & still so wary of everything yet she is such a sweet girl, she has to have a way out of wherever she is else she panics. Our other cat was next doors but decided she wanted to live with us, such a cheeky madam and will push our other cat out the way to get all the food and attention. Amazes me how they all have their own unique personalities.

    Tamber is a timid cat, she’s very affectionate with only me, she took to me straight away. She was my nieces cat but they couldn’t have her anymore due to an unexpected house move. It’s been 3 or 4 years now we’ve had her. Worked out perfectly as she is our only pet so gets all of our attention, she’s also never often on her own which she seems to prefer. She rubs her head against my feet enthusiastically, we think this is so she gets the perfect tickle spot. She also does this to my hands by putting her head in my hands and sometimes leaving it there very cute. She sleeps on my dressing gown or anything that smells of me, if she had a pet bed I’d have to put my feet in it or sit in it to make her use it. I’ve made the mistake of washing things of comfort to her and she wouldn’t touch them until they had a familiar scent to them again. She knows our routines and makes sure we don’t get up late, she used to do this by placing her paw on my face now she favours purring and sitting next to my pillow. I could go on and on about her she means the world to me.

    He’s getting on about now so basically spends all his time sleeping or demanding attention and affection

    I have 4 cats and they all have different personalities:
    Morticia the oldest loves to be petted but hates being picked up – she is very greedy and will steal food espcially if its dairy related. She’s very clean and a proper huntress and often brings home gifts

    LeoCat is a bengal – very dominant and very loving towards me but not so keen on other people

    Dena is part feral she prefers to be outside and doesnt like people much – she does come to me for fusses but always on her terms and she can sometimes bite

    LadyCat is our special needs kitty – she very small about half the size of a regular cat – she loves playing and cuddles and follows me eerywhere

    My cat is aloof. He does exactly what he wants, when he wants. He loves you – on his terms. In all he is a typical cat.

    You will either find Samson lazing in the sun or by the fire in winter, or exploring our garden or a bit further afield. He loves to hunt, often bringing back ‘gifts’, and also enjoys sitting on the window sill and watching the world go by.

    Our cat will only eat in the bathroom with the door closed. He loves cuddles and searches for anyone sitting down and will sit right on their chest. He kneads and purrs constantly!

    He’s a bit of a character. Cute and fluffy one minute then temperamental the next. I love him anyway.

    We have 3 cats, all siblings, and they all have completely different personalities. Olive is a fearsome hunter and is always coming back home with a dead squirrel, mouse or rat (yuck!). He is very friendly and always purring. Venus has long fur and is very demanding, always wanting to be combed and stroked. She will bat you with her paw if she thinks she is being ignored. Little Paris is the smallest and most timid, she spends the day sleeping in a basket on my desk, follows me round the house, sleeps with me at night and rarely goes outside.

    I have 5, they are all completely different, Sulley is the oldest at 14 is very chilled out, then there’s Ice who only has 3 legs now as she got runover – she’s lovely. Then Poppy who’s Ice’s daughter, she spends half the day down the end of the garden on the swing. Then Cookie & Cream who are only a year old, they spend most of the time hassling the chickens next door
