Some exceptionally interesting cat-people

I would like you to meet. Japie Pienaar, his wife Magda and their four legged children.

 Magda will introduce the lovable four :-
"Initially the cheetah was called Nancy but it changed to Jolie (the people who bottle fed her from birth called her Angelina Jolie !)
The German Shepherd is named Frankie (The first photo we received of him showed a blue reflection in his eyes from the handlers' clothes, which reminded my husband of Frank Sinatra, Ol' blue eyes!).

The Siamese is called Anix (named after a friend, Anika, who organised him for us), although mostly we call him 'The white one' (die witte).The Pug is just called Boelie."

Their farm is situated in the central Free State 20km fromWesselsbron, South Africa. A portion of the farm is a naturereserve and is also a working argicultural farm as well as a working Arabian horse stud farm

There is a self catering camp next to the river in the game area with a vehicle to do game drives. Game includes various antelope, buffalo, rhino and hippo as well as lots of birds (200+ species) and fish in the river.

Brakfontein private nature reserve.

I can see what goes on in that buffalo's mind while he is chewing on the straw. He is just itching for a scuffle with the cheetah.

However, before you get too excited to sleep, keep the words "action, cat and sleep" in mind. Like in the first
photo.... but not quite.

Afternoon nap with a siamese cat and a cheetah

Bound to be interesting.

Cat was not sleepy - looking for something interesting to do and would you believe what he found?! This big lovely tail.  All cats love to play with a tail.  Usually it is momcats tail which she moves slightly to amuse the kittens.  This time it is a gorgeous huge tail!
What kitten will resist that.  I will leave it to your imagination.  Just take a look at the kittens teeth showing. He is going to take a nice big bite !! eeek.

Rough play or kisses 

the bull terrier enjoys it all.

We raised our kids with bull terriers and our grand children are raised by bull terriers too. But any dog is the best playmate a kid can get and the pooch will see to it that the kid gets enough exercise to boot.
This is Petro enjoying Patch.  Patch was still a puppy.

Small warning. These dogs are excellent hunters.
No other pets are safe unless raised together and even there ...it is taking a chance.
An over-weight sluggish bull terrier can catch a pigeon
- think about it - other pets should take care.

Now the trampoline. What's keeping you ?!

If Petro should fall and break a leg, what will the difference between Patch and Lassie be?

Lassie will run and fetch a phone,
Patch will grab Petro and pull her to the phone.

Rough, tough and loving, that is the bull-terrier.

Petro fits right in!  A very tough little girl.  It takes some muscle to handle a solid bullterrier like that.
