PRESCOTT MASCOTT

This is Eyarth Cherokee commonly known as Chez.
Chez is the centres Mascot and he will appear everywhere on this site!!
Chez belongs to Zoe (my daughter) and although Zoe is 29 years old and he is very small, she still comes home to ride him.
He is now 24 years old and has been at Prescott almost all his life.
He is 12.2hh Welsh Mountain and was a top quality show pony in his day.
We have done public displays at various shows and Chez always leads out the big horses.
Chez has now gone into retirement and is living with Oliver and Helen at their home. Although he can no longer be seen at Prescott he will always be a memorable part of it.

MISCELLANEOUS

THE MOUSE CATCHERS

Andy Cat is a beautiful black cat who is now just over one year old.  He came to Prescott last summer with his brother Felix as kittens as we had a serious vermin problem and we thought cats were a better option than other pest control methods. We reared both kittens successfully but sadly Felix got killed on the road in October which left poor Andy really sad and lonley.  By chance one of my employees, Sarah, knew of an abandoned kitten who needed a home so we decided to take the kitten which we named Molly.  She was the tiniest kitten I had ever seen and Andy was really not quite sure whether he wanted her as a replacement for his brother!  However Molly was very bold and kept annoying Andy until eventually they became friends.
Andy is an amazing mouse catcher and with the help of Roby, a young cat belonging to Becci (a member of staff ) they have completly removed the problem we had last year.
Molly does not do much in the way of catching mice, she is more interested in people and spends her time annoying Andy.
Diversification
When we first had the kittens they were so popular with the children that I did think it may have been more viable to get rid of the horses and have a kitten farm instead!

MICKY

This is the Lakeside House Cat .You will not see much of him as he is frightened of people.  Micky was a feral Cat who was rescued when he was only 2 weeks old.  It was not expected that he would survive as he also had cat flu and was too young to leave his mother.  However with the great attention of Jacci and her daughters whilst we were on holiday he lives to tell the tale!!
He is an excellent mouser and rabbit catcher although I spend all my time rescueing wild animals and releasing them from the house.
Micky does not come near the yard where his mice catching skills could be useful,  he just patrols the lake and woodland when he is not sleeping in the house!!

Sorry this is nothing to do with Horses!!
