Hi Rachel, Guiness, Murphy and "baby"  :welcome: to Purrs,

As the others have said ... I'm sure you will have a great time on here ... I'm sure you've got loads of spare time at the moment  :innocent: (running your business, looking after a new baby, and being a full time cat "slave" ... do you sleep???  :rofl:)

I have also just noticed your incredibly generous offer of 10% discount on your site to purrs members  :hug: :hug: Thank you!

Looking forward to seeing pics of Guinness and Murphy and hearing all about them.

Sam, Foxy, Zephyr and Rossi xxx

Thanks for all your warm welcomes.

I'm going to try and get some piccies of Guinness & Murphy up but my digital camera is currently broken so I've asked Santa for a new one for Xmas.  I might try with my mobile phone camera but it's not very good.

Yeah, 3 month old baby and trying to run a business is quite a challenge!!

Please consider the harder to home cats in rescue.

Hello Rachel - a big Purry welcome to you, Guiness and Murphy  :welcome:

Would like to add my thanks to that of the others for your wonderful donations for the Purrs Auction, and hope you enjoy finding your way about on here, making new friends and having a good old natter about all and everything (some of it not even cat-related!  :evillaugh:)

Yes, definitely the rules about piccies (says me, whose pants at them myself  :naughty:)

Glad Guiness didn't end up as Foxy's dinner.  Poor little lass must have had a heck of a shock, bless her.  I don't blame her for not wanting to venture out.  Much better to be inside where it's cosy and warm, and fox-free.   :hug:

Would you believe they are not black and white - they are tortoiseshell.

They were named by my little sister when she was about 13 and she thought it would be cool to name them after drinks!!!

 :welcome: to Purrs, Rachel: I'm the one who's been liaising with your company about the donations.  Glad you decided to join in as well  ;D

Sorry to hear about Guinness's altercation with a fox but glad she's recovered fully.

Would Guinness and Murphy be black and white by any chance?

Glad you like the donations.

I have to say the Cosy Calming Mat is a real hit with our cats.  They love it.

I'm looking forward to hearing about all things cat on the forum.  Hopefully, I'll be of some use to the forum as I've been working in the pet industry for some time now and know quite a lot about nutrition, particularly about the quality cat foods.

I'm currently at home with our cats rather than being at Mutley & Mog as I have an 11 week old baby so currently balancing the joys and challenges of motherhood with running my own business!!

Hello from Guinness & Murphy
« Reply #1 on: November 26, 2008, 13:51:46 PM »
Hi everyone,

I thought I'd come on here and introduce myself and my cats.

My name is Rachel and I am the managing director of Mutley & Mog (www.mutleyandmog.co.uk), one of the commercial sponsors of the auction.

Anyway, I thought I'd introduce my 2 cats Guinness & Murphy. They are rescue cats that we've had since they were kittens and are now the ripe old age of 14.  Unfortunately we almost lost Guinness recently when she was attacked by a rather large fox.  She was attacked round the neck and legs but seems to have made a full recovery now although she's a bit scared of going outside.


Looking forward to contributing to the forum and hoping that the auction is a huge success for you.
