We feed and Jamie and Ellie morning and evening, and take them out briefly for a pee before bed. They will thrive on attention, but are generally self sufficient and not at all demanding.
The house is in a beautiful, tree-lined area of historic Wilmington, 5 minutes from downtown and 12 minutes from gorgeous beaches. Cross city cycle paths go by 1 block from the house.
Lots of restaurants and shopping nearby -- some within walking distance.
