How did you pick their names?
“Bowie is after David Bowie, Roxy is after the brand. And Raisin was inspired by someone I know named Ray, but I didn’t want it to be the exact name so it transformed into Raisin” Adrian answered.
What’s one of your favourite/funniest memories with them?
“When we introduced Roxy and Raisin, Roxy became maternal. But we could tell she wasn’t sure what was going on; she’d act motherly one moment and then hiss at Raisin the next. It was like Roxy’s biology was telling her to do one thing and her brain was telling her another. Roxy would even let Raisin suckle at her even though she didn’t have any milk. And for Bowie, it’s always funny to watch her knock down family members when she greets them” they laughed.
What are some of their funny quirks or habits?
“Our eldest cat, Roxy, loves water (which is unusual for a cat). She’ll ever go in the shower! Raisin’s favourite thing is to be pet with a tiny skeleton hand we have. And she is basically just a loaf of bread. Those memes that say “If it fits I sits” are about her; her whole life is a quirk.”
“Roxy is my soulmate.”
If they were people, what type of person would they be?
“Roxy would be an older woman who wears one of those fancy coats, has a scratchy voice and a cigarette hanging out of her mouth. Raisin would be a chubby anime schoolgirl. And Bowie would be a happy hippie living in a van.”
