Meet the real Sukie
Meet Sukie, the real Queen of Cats. She arrived at our home just before lockdown and, in her own quiet way, chose us. Sukie is brave in a gentle way — watchful, caring and always checking on her adopted siblings, Abbie and Webber.
During lockdown she brought joy, mischief and comfort into our home, connecting our family across oceans and generations. Her kindness and quiet confidence inspired the stories in this series. Sukie reminds us that family isn’t only found… sometimes, it’s chosen.
