🐾 Happy National Cat Day from Oink and all of us at Oakbank Chaff & Fodder! 🐱

Today we’re celebrating our feline friends and the purrs, cuddles and cheeky moments they bring to our lives. Oink certainly knows who’s in charge around here! 💚

Loving our cats also means being responsible owners:

🐱 Have your cat desexed to help prevent unwanted litters.
🏡 Keep them safely at home, indoors or in a secure enclosure or escape proof backyard to help protect our native wildlife.
🧶 Provide toys, scratching spaces and daily play to keep their minds and bodies active.
🐾 Keep microchip details current and arrange regular vet checks.

We also have cat foods, toys and treats in store to help keep your feline friends happy, well fed and entertained.

Pop in for a friendly chat and something for your favourite feline. We’d love to see their photo in the comments too! 📸💕

To the person that drove over our Forklift Safety sign at the shop late today while our truck was being unloaded. . Do you realise these signs cost $300 each plus freight to get here. We use them for safety to let customers know a forklift is in use. As a small business every dollar counts. And safety of our employees and customers
