This is Bronson, who was the senior resident, and 'top cat'.
Yes. we have cats too! 

These are much loved cats we have enjoyed in the past.Here are Monty and Twiggy looking innocent after demolishing my catnip plant once again.  Together with the senior member, Bronson they were an important part of the household and will always br remembered.  Before them, when we lived in Auckland there was Tigger, Ginger and Micawber (Mac)


The two people owned by the cats!
Ray and Gae Thompson, ex-Aucklanders who moved to Taupo in 1998.  Ray is ex RNZNVR  (HMNZS Ngapona) and now keeps busy with his interests down here. He is a member of the Taupo RSA and Royal New Zealand Naval Association here. 
Gae's interests in old fashioned roses, craftwork and floral design are reflected in the house and garden.  Works as a volunteer in the Red Cross and SPCA op shops in Taupo
