’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! So, inspired by my beautiful fur-kitties and “stable relationship” – I aim to share hilarious insights, lessons learnt, interesting articles and even something that tugs at animal lovers’ heartstrings.

I believe in a thing called love … and this includes the absolute love of my country, South Africa. But most of all I believe…
