Hello, I'm Gabby, fosterer & re-homer of cats. After a friend passed in Dec, we took in their precious babies. Typically, we don't struggle to find homes but this time we've hit a wall. These cats are AMAZING & we will deliver to anywhere in the UK for a perfect home where they're loved forever.

Back from watching Wuthering Heights at the cinema. All that rain and wind! Inspired to re-listen to this episode. Episode 147 - The barn high up the moor (38 mins) A barn. Alone on steeply sloping fields. Shelter here from the cold wet wind at 1am. > bit.ly/LenBarn

@littleramstudio.bsky.social Hi Gary, just waving and saying hello. I hope you’re okay(ish) and the cats are well x

@littleramstudio.bsky.social Hi Gary. I am thinking of Heather and you even more than usual today. I don’t drink but will raise a cup of tea in her memory and have a wander in the garden to admire any snowdrops which are up and out. Take care 💛💛

@littleramstudio.bsky.social Hi Gary, just me popping in to say I’m thinking of you. I know the next week is going to be incredibly tough and I’m here if you need to chat. I’m also here if you don’t x

@littleramstudio.bsky.social Hi Gary, sorry it’s been a whisk since I waves *waves* It doesn’t mean I haven’t been thinking of you (and Heather) lots, I just forgot to come and tell you I was. I imagine this is a very tough time of year, lots of “this time last year” going on?
