About Doughnut and Sean Connery
Dog Mother to @Doughnutthedoggo
Doughnut is a 50kg lurcher, who came into our family from a local rescue. I was searching for a greyhound to rehome, when these 3 week old rescue pups popped up on my radar. He looks more like an Anatolian Shepherd (which we presume his dad to be), than a greyhound, but he is wonderful and so full of character, it really doesn't matter. He would make a great assistance dog, as he helps us out around the home, closing doors, taking notes to people, putting things in the bin, picking up dropped socks, and bringing in the shopping. He is mad intelligent, and very independent.
Cat Mother to @livingwithseanconnery
Although I never particularly liked cats, and was very allergic, I decided it would be a good idea to rehome one. I put out the feelers, and before I knew it, I had committed to seeing the last cat of the litter ‘the one with the moustache’ the following day. I was presented on the doorstep with this shaking, dirty, and covered in fleas ‘cat with a moustache’, and asked ‘did I want the cat or not?’.
There was no way I could have left him there, so I agreed, and left the property with this flea ridden floofer I didn’t particularly want. But fast forward to a transition to raw food, lots of toys, lots of coaxing, lots of ‘Doughnut, don’t eat the cat’, and lots of socialising, and I realised we had the BEST CAT EVER.
Now he’s my mischievous studio sidekick and is quite the chaos maker in the studio, getting into things, knocking stuff over, sitting in boxes when trying to pack orders, or sleeping in his bowl. He is a little monkey but I wouldn’t change him for anything. I did not know I could love a cat so much.
They’re both constant sources of chaos and love and endless inspiration.
