Congratulations to our ‘Cat Toy Competition’ prize winner - Monty-Tom!
He has won our Spring Newsletter cat competition and will be receiving an interactive treat-dispensing cat toy for his brilliant story and adorable photo submission.
Here is his story: "When Monty-Tom was little, we used to put his collar on before he went out. He would sit by the open door patiently, waiting for his collar before he set off on his rounds. He's the most clued up and clever cat I've ever known. He understands everything I say to him and communicates mainly with his eyes, he and I can read each other's minds because we're so close. He understands facial expressions and if I give him the 'stop it' look, he will stop doing what he's doing instantly, i.e., scratching the carpet. He knows all my other cats names and all his friends' names and can recognise them even through frosted glass. He lets us know if one of his brothers wants to come in or if one of his 'outside' friends wanders into the garden, recognising everyone by sight. I know it sounds impossible but this behaviour has been consistent throughout his 14 years of life, starting from kittenhood. He's an amazing boy and truly one in a million. I feel absolutely blessed to have him in my life."
