Our Team
Newt
Newt has been looking after his human for more than a decade. Having left his days as “Parkour Kitty” behind him he is now content to live as an orange meatloaf.

Quote: “Why yak on the tile when there’s so much carpet in this house?”
Sun
Sun takes her name from the character Sun Bak (Bae Doona) from Sense8. Her song of contentment is among the most beautiful sounds on the planet. Fully licensed Shoulder Cat who is likely to leap onto your neck and settle in at any time.
Aliases: Lil’ Meep, Huntress, Warrior
Quote: “Smart money’s on the skinny bitch.”
The Lady Bethesda
Bethesda is elegant and silky, but is easily triggered and will bite. She chose her name from a character in Steven Saylor’s Gordianus novels, but also feels kinship with Central Park’s angel Bethesda. Loves Newt as long as he stays in another room. Like, forever.
Aliases: Fluffernut, The Tail, M’Lady
Quote: “I’ll groom myself in my own time, dammit!”
Nomi
A full-body snuggler who prefers resting against your chest with her head on your shoulder, infant-style. Possibly hearing-impaired, she is able to ignore the vacuum cleaner altogether. Takes her name from Nomi Marks of Sense8 (Jamie Clayton).
Aliases: Lil’ Paws, Cat of My Heart, Head-Rubbingest Kitty of All
Quote: “We’re safe as long as we’re here on the couch together.”
Clare
Clare is a human. She delivers dry food in the morning and wet food in the afternoon. She empties litter boxes. On cold nights, she’s an acceptable substitute for a hot water bottle.
Aliases: Human
