THE new owners of Mosside Kennels and Cattery, near Cowling, are inviting customers past, present and future to meet them for mince pies and mulled wine.

Gary and Ruth Cobb are holding an open event at the Sandybank Lane kennels on Saturday and Sunday from noon to 3pm - and pets are welcome.

The family-run business provides licensed high quality, spacious and comfortable holiday and day boarding accommodation for cats and dogs.

Yorkshire-born Ruth and Gary both have a passion for animals and have owned cats, dogs, horses and rabbits all their lives. They have also owned and bred Weimaraners for many years.

"Our aim is to provide a safe, fun and happy environment for your dogs and cats while you are away and keep them and secure for your return," they said.
