Success Stories


ESTHER & ALBERT
I thought that you might like to see a photo of Esther with her boyfriend Albert, after dating successfully for a week, they finally set up home together on the 1st of December, and are now inseparable, doing everything together, they share a large
double hutch, which, like all our other hutches we have clad
with twin-wall polycarbonate sheeting which is both
weatherproof and warm. Wishing you and all at BARKS a
happy new year. Coincidentally our neighbor Dawn also came
down to you for a rabbit a couple of years ago.


EDMOND
Edmond (formerly Morris) bounced into our household in August and has been bouncing around ever since! He was delighted to have Katy and Kitty to play with although Katy wasn't keen on having
to wear him like a back pack when he landed on her from a height. Kitty took to him instantly, washing him lovingly and teaching him all the basics that a well trained kitten should know. She is very tolerant of his rough and tumble games and they are very close. We are all delighted to have this happy little boy as another member of our family. Thank you BARKS.


SMUDGE

Here is a picture of the hamster we adopted at the beginning of December. I called her Smudge because of the smudge of white running down under her chin. She seems very happy and she is
very cute!!! In the bottom two cages there is hay in the one on
the left and sawdust in the one on the right which she enjoys
digging and sleeping in. She is usually in the living room but at
the moment she is in my bedroom because my uncle is
sleeping in the living room and her wheel squeaks quite a lot!

She runs really fast and after a few minutes of holding her we
put her in the ball because of her speed! She is gorgeous and
very sweet and I love her to bits. I'm lucky we were looking
for a hamster when she was looking for a home. From Meg


PUNKY & FOZZIE

Just an update on the little monkeys. The hours of sitting on the dining room floor with them has paid off and I am now a fully fledged member of the kitten family and can probably now be
known as mum. We're now back to sitting on the settee in the evenings, which is a relief and they like to climb all over us. Punky likes to hold me down with his paws and wash my face. He also wants to kiss me all the time by rubbing his nose on mine. Punky
is still the more confident and mischievous one but Fozzie is
getting there and will sit on us when we're relaxing.

They follow me wherever I go in the house, usually by running round my feet in figure of eights which takes a lot of time to get anywhere without kicking them or treading on them. I've attached
a photo of them when they were 'helping' me with my studying
this week, (by helping I mean chasing the pencil as I was trying
to write) and also one of their smiley faces whilst they were
asleep. I'm so glad I had these two.



FIDDLE


I just wanted to let you know that Fiddle is settling in very well.
He is coming out of his shell, helped by Fidget, they have been
doing a lot of playing and boxing with each other, none of it nasty, and they have started to go to sleep together under Ellie's bed in
the afternoon! Fidget now spends most of his time upstairs, he
likes to know what Fiddle is up to....Come bed time Fidge comes down to sleep with Wiz, otherwise they would be chasing each
other all night!!!!

So Fiddle comes to sleep on my bed with me, he has got used to
me now and is letting me fuss him, he's so soft and fluffy, we
love him so much and are so happy with him! Thanks so much
for everything!
