Needs and animals

Look after the house | Animals with specific needs | Pool maintenance | 2 Cats | Farm animals

We have two 11-year-old neutered cats who are brothers. Both have health conditions so need a close eye keeping on them. One likes a fuss making of him, the other is a bit more independent!! We have 6 poultry. One cockerel and five hens who free range by day. Cats need feeding twice a day, and the chooks need fresh food and water daily and most importantly locking away in their coop before dusk and letting out sometime in the mornings. Checking and gathering eggs in the process which you are welcome to enjoy. The swimming pools needs simple daily maintenance. Pot plants need watering twice a day when the weather is hot.
