’Cause fur-kids sparkle too!

You know that annoying person on social media that posts a million cat pics/videos, with hilarious and cleverly thought out captions and hashtags? Well, yeah that’s me! BUT at least I also post photos (with super cute and smart captions) of my noble, albeit cheeky Folly – a thoroughbred mare. She’s a hoot or a neigh in equine speak!
