Pets of LAEL: Phoenix


This weeks pet is Phoenix the cat – frequent house guest of third year Hannah!

Phoenix, an orange cat, lies on his back at the top of a staircase. He has one paw outstretched as he relaxes. Phoenix, an orange cat with bright green eyes, sits on a doorstep outside.

 

Hannah describes Phoenix as having the personality of ‘a rich, older man’ as he shows up often to their house uninvited (but welcomed!). Despite his wandering habit, he clearly lives ‘a life of luxury’ at his original home, and just enjoys scoping out the tenants of the houses around him – even sometimes following them to the bus stop as they attend lectures!
