Oscar, Eli and Jake were adopted about four years ago from Foal Farm. They had always lived together, and as the picture on the left shows, they are very close.

Then the family grew to include Floyd, Lenny and Joe, who came from Greenwich North CP, and had also lived together all their lives.

Floyd made himself at home straight away, and was soon eager to explore his new garden. Lenny was a little more jumpy at first, and took a bit longer to get used to the cat flap, but now comes and goes as he pleases. Despite being the biggest, Joe was the most timid, and spent the first few days hiding behind the TV or under a bookcase. He now prefers to be let in at the door by one of his human servants rather than use the cat flap, but then so do Oscar and Eli.

As you can see, the six cats all now feed happily together - particularly when Tuna is on the menu!

The biggest problem for all the cats is their lunatic sister, Jenny the Cocker Spaniel. She is so affectionate she just wants to be everyone's friend and can't work out to give the cats their space. So every where she goes, there are likely to be cats getting out of her way!

And then there is one more family member who is also a star, Lewis the Newfoundland puppy.

All the pets cope well with being together, although we wait to see what the cats make of Lewis when he is full grown!
