If you love cats, you'll love this place on the Dereham Road in Norwich. So many breeds - from Kharmoon, who's naked apart from his jumper and camps out on the radiator, to Dave, the ginger tom and Lily the Lykoi (a werewolf cat). They roam, play with toys with you, and snuggle when they feel like it. And on Wednesday, Thursday or Friday outside school holidays, you can buy a day ticket! http

Norwich named as best place to live in the UK!
It's the nearest city to us and at under 15 miles' distance, you can enjoy all it has to offer at https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/cly0yypx426o

A business representative says it is "wonderful" to see the city recognised on the national stage.

We have season tickets, we love it so much! It's 11 miles from Tail End and 13 from Dune Roamin', en route to Great Yarmouth and it's a family-friendly attraction known for getting visitors exceptionally close to Asian mammals, reptiles, and birds. Highlights include dramatic, elevated walkways through the tiger enclosure and the oriental bridge through the bird enclosure, a reptile "swamp house,", and lovely 250-year-old landscaped gardens. If you love your avians, you can meet Morris the hand reared Mynah who says, 'Hello, Morris' and has just picked up a wolf whistle, and Monty, Mango, Sidney and Billy, the cockatoos. The red pandas are extremely cuddlesome -looking, the lar gibbons are cute and the monkeys are vulgar! What's not to love?

We love the seals! This was the board this time last year at Winterton, a great place to see the largest Grey Seal colony in Europe, outside Scotland, in breeding season.

Still plenty of seals to see :)

2766 seals today lying in groups during their annual moult. They do this to conserve heat and scratch off there oily winter coat, this takes a few weeks until they are ready to leave and catch food, to build themselves up ready for the breeding season.
If you see groups of seals on the beach or even one lone seal please keep your distance. Respect the wildlife round our coasts.
