There are 4 cats in the van der Waag family, Mistoffelees, Redd, Greyy and Bluebell. Redd and Greyy hangs around at the gate and driveway so look out for them. Redd loves sitting on the tree stump to get a scratch from anyone passing. Mistoffelees is a Long haired black and white cat that mostly arrive in the afternoons in search of food. Bluebell, or Blue for short is a blueish-grey cat that hangs out in the office.  

Lindi a miniature chiwawa, that thinks she's a Rottweiler.  She is the guardian and in charge of the household and not always very friendly to unknown visitors. Star is a recent addition and the has come to retire after her family left for Germany. Bella and Bagel are two Golden Retrievers that spend some of their time in the school.  The children in the Seahorse Class get taught how to brush them and as they are Golden Retrievers they love the attention!  Bella grew up in the school and the children take great delight in the fact that they can give her commands to sit, settle, roll over.  Like typical Retrievers they love to carry things around and will play fetch with any of the children that will obliged. Molly is an Irish Setter and very playful and makes friends with everyone, despite the fact that she is scared of her own shadow.
