Micha, Nicky & Sigmund

Bruna Fernandes

It is with great pleasure that we start the section where we will introduce our customers .

And by customers we talk about our furry animals. Those who occupy our heart and destroy our home. Who we spend time playing with and try to give the best care.

This is the first family of bigeyes to be featured under this heading. The first of many!

Meet the bigeyes of the Soares family !



the big-legged family

There are currently 3 puppies living there:
The two kittens: Micha , 16 years old and Nicky , 3.
The dog Sigmund , which must be approximately 10 months old.

But the family was already much more numerous in furry friends!

The oldest – Micha the cat – has been with us since birth.
We took in his mother – the cat Bia – so that she could have a litter of 4 kittens.
We managed to find an owner for 2 of them and the rest – Micha and Ralf the cat – stayed with us, to be raised by our already resident kitten – Slippers.

We met Slippers on our wedding day and, having arrived from our honeymoon, we had to pick him up. Slippers soon adopted the 2 brothers and, later, also a new little dog – Porthus .

We welcomed the dog Porthus when the fall of a pine tree revealed its nest in the Pinhal de Ofir.

At that date, the count at home was 4 cats and 1 dog.

The canids were at a disadvantage so the dog Uydo had to enter the picture: a medium-sized dog with a slight limp and who roamed the office in Braga, where I still work, looking for food and affection.

The years went by and the moments of great happiness with our furry ones were accumulating, but the sadness and longing for the departure of some of them also happened.

With the departure of our Slippers, we welcome Jesse , the yellow kitten, and more recently Nicky the kitten (better known as Nick Picky Muffy Ricky).

The most recent member of the family is the dog Sigmund, from his full name Sigmund Cãobrito Maireles .

After a few months without my puppies Porthus and Uydo, who passed away last year at the age of 16, we had to adopt those energetic brown eyes that still gnaw our home today and make our hearts happy.


The jokes

Micha , at the age of 16, doesn't play games anymore – nor has she ever been. He prefers a warm and quiet lap to any other activity.

Nicky , on the other hand, is busy chasing flies and trying to catch birds. When she was younger she liked to play with paper balls but now she has no peace of mind because the canid Sigmund won't let her...

Micha and Nicky where they like to be the most – on the couch.


Sigmund plays for him and the cats. Tennis balls, soccer balls, ropes, cats… Everything that comes to the net is fish to play with. His energy never goes out, even when he runs 10km with me.

One of the places where Sigmund likes to play the most – the beach.


what do you like to eat

The kittens Micha and Nicky usually eat dry and, on special occasions, a few sachets.
As long as it's quality, they won't lose their appetite.

Sigmund starts to care more about food. In the first month, I ate out of necessity, but now the gluttony is noticeable.
However, he is concerned about eating healthy. He loves to steal and eat apples and has a recent taste for carrots!
