Meet Gremlin: The Mischievous Cat
Gremlin is the resident cat- we think part Norwegian Forest Cat- with a playful and mischievous personality. His sleek fur and curious eyes make him an instant favorite among guests. Whether he’s chasing after a toy or lounging in a sunny spot, Gremlin’s antics are sure to bring a smile to your face. His presence adds a touch of charm and warmth to the homestay, making it feel like a true home away from home.
Imagine waking up to the soft, ticklish sensation of a cat’s tongue on your cheek and the soothing sound of purring filling the room. That’s Gremlin for you, when you forget to pull your door shut. This mischievous feline loves to sneak into guests’ bedrooms earlyg- early in the morning, gently waking them with affectionate licks and his loud, contented purrs. It’s his special way of saying, “Good morning! Time for food!”
Alice: The Loyal and Loving Dog
Alice, the loyal little dog, is another beloved member of the Headington Haven family. Her friendly demeanor and gentle nature make her a perfect companion for guests. Alice loves to greet new visitors with a wagging tail and mostly friendly bark. Her calming presence, snuggles and affectionate personality make her an integral part of the homestay experience.
This little chihuahua and Jack Russell cross may be found snuggling under blankets and duvets throughout the day. If you see a little blanket pile, don’t sit on it! There may be a dog snug underneath!
Entertaining Guests with Playful Antics
One of the highlights of staying at Headington Haven Homestay is the delightful entertainment provided by Gremlin and Alice. These two are the best of friend
Alice and Gremlin love to play and wrestle together. It’s a sight to behold as the small dog and large cat chase each other around the house, teasing and tumbling in a joyful display of friendship. Guests often find themselves mesmerised by their playful antics, whether it’s Gremlin biting on Alice’s but, teasing her to play or Alice gently nudging Gremlin to start another round of tumble.
And we certainly know who is the boss, for if Gremlin lets a claw out or plays too rough, he is quickly put in his place.
