Queenie With Stars in Her Eyes

Instead of round pupils, Queenie has very definite star shaped pupils. Her eyes are quite small, light blue with these little stars inside – it’s very distinctive. This is due to having two M genes and she is what is…

Queeny

We’re going to collect Queeny today. We are meeting her foster family half way between their house and ours, at Salamanca. We’re both looking forward to bringing her home and introducing her to our little gang. We’ve enjoyed introducing all…
