More Pet Profiles

Janice, our Accountant, is responsible for a myriad of things financial, from ensuring we all get paid on time to managing stock levels in our US warehouse.  Janice's life is ruled by Keera, a 6-month old silver spotted Bengal cat.  Keera represents a new breed created about 20 years ago by crossing a Bengal wild cat with a domestic tabby.

Janice says her cat is very different to a normal cat.  She says Keera can get very jealous and is fiercely territorial, she is a wonderful climber and can go up a tree hanging upside down like a sloth!  They love water - Keera will jump into the bath given half a chance - Janice has to keep the toilet lid down otherwise Keera plays with the water.  She has also gone swimming in the pond with the goldfish and caught one!

It's a well known fact that cats like to bring 'gifts' home for their owners - mice, birds, shrews, the odd rabbit or two - but Janice was presented with a live chicken that had been pilfered from a neighbour down the road. The culprit was Kimi, her three year old brown spotted Bengal, who had climbed over two 6 foot fences with the chicken in her mouth.  She dropped it at Janice's feet and, apart from a couple of missing feathers and ruffled dignity, the chicken was returned to her owners unharmed.  As Janice says, Bengal cats are different!!!'
