    Description

    Hi I am 65, I've lived in Spain for 14 years. I live in the Campo with 4 dogs and 1 cat however I foster, at the moment I have 6 foster kittens and 2 mother cats.
    I am 10 minutes drive from the nearest village and 30 minutes from the local town.
    The beach is 35 minutes away and Malaga with all it's attractions is an hour away.
    One of my dogs is deaf and is ball mad, she adores being made a fuss off but be ready for white hairs everywhere!
    2 are elderly - 1 dances around and the other loves hugs and cuddles.
    Rosa has a separate area at the side of the house as she can be fussy which animals she will accept. She is a comedian - she tries to trick you into giving her treats when she hasn't actually done as asked but will pretend she has 'But mum you asked me to do sit and stay for far too long, I got bored but I did it for a bit so - treat!' She loves water play and cuddles.
    Smudge the cat lives his life on his own terms. Sometimes he wants strokes and other times not! Typical cat!

    Cultural exchange and learning opportunities

    This is a wonderful opportunity to see how the Spanish live their lives. In the nearest village, Rio Bermuza, we say 'adios' not 'Hola'.

    Help

    Looking for someone to throw balls, give cuddles, play with water - feed and water the animals, clean up poo - including litter trays for foster cats. Walks and treat giving too.
    Fosters also need you to play with them and love treats too!

    Accommodation

    I have a 3 bedroom house, one of which is a cat room! 2 bathrooms so you have your own.

  • What else ...

    What else ...

    If you drive me to the airport you will have my car while I'm away. From Velez-Malaga and Torre del Mar you can park and get a bus into Malaga (much easier than trying to find and pay for parking!)
    I ask for smokers to go outside the house please.
