He\u2019s a British Shorthair and is now two! We call Mr Meowgi from time to time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong><em>What do you do for a living when you\u2019re not spending your time with Louie?<\/em><\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>I currently work for the NHS in the mental health team. I changed careers just over a year ago, I used to be a senior land buyer for a retirement development company.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong><em>Is that your dream job now, or would there be something else you&#8217;d absolutely love to do?<\/em><\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>If I could I\u2019d travel the world and get paid to do it!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong><em>Ahh, now that would be the dream. But back to reality, how does your usual morning routine go down on the weekends?<\/em><\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>If I can it will usually start with a little yoga session. Followed by coffee and porridge to get me ready for the day. My favourite thing about a Saturday is having a slow, relaxing morning with no need to set an alarm.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong><em>If you had \u00a35 to spend over the weekend on a little treat, what would you choose?<\/em><\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>I\u2019d definitely go for a new house plant because you can never have too many! If the budget was a little bigger, I\u2019d probably go and get my hair done then meet friends at my favourite pub for Sunday Lunch.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong><em>Do you have an anthem to go with your Saturday mornings?<\/em><\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Zac Brown Band &#8211; <em>Chicken Fried<\/em> <span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/open.spotify.com\/playlist\/4AuG9Vb5td5vAhfeY1R306?si=6e15926d831f4f30\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">*adds to playlist*<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-spotify wp-block-embed-spotify wp-embed-aspect-21-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe title=\"Spotify Embed: Saturday Morning Coffee Anthems\" style=\"border-radius: 12px\" width=\"100%\" height=\"352\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen allow=\"autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; fullscreen; picture-in-picture\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/open.spotify.com\/embed\/playlist\/4AuG9Vb5td5vAhfeY1R306?si=8a5179dad7f148a7&#038;utm_source=oembed\"><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong><em>So have you always been a cat person when it comes down to it, or did Louie help you see the light?<\/em><\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Yes, I have always loved them and their unpredictable ways. I grew up with cats and couldn&#8217;t wait to get one of my own.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong><em>Do you have any cool cat-person things at home?<\/em><\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Absolutely. Probably the best thing is a cat window hammock that Louie loves.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong><em>Are there any sneaky snacks you feed him that maybe you shouldn\u2019t?<\/em><\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>He\u2019s obsessed with cheddar cheese.
