Smooch!

This sweet girl has finished her medication protocol and the vets are very happy with no.

No more weird belly!

She's ready to go up for adoption with a couple of terms and conditions.

Shes okay with other cats but isn't the biggest fan. She's good with people, including children. She'll get under your feet whenever possible.

Smooch needs to be indoor.

Smooch hasn't grown any hair back on her sides from her scan. Her new family will need to keep an eye on this and be aware that it might need investigating down the track.

How cool is this? Two of our kittens that have been at Purrs & Beans NZ are adopted.

🤎🖤 ADOPTED 🖤🤎

We’re happy to share that Merry & Pippin have been matched to their forever family and leave us next Sat morning 💝

This means this weekend is your last opportunity to hang with them and to wish them happy trails + also to spend time with our LOTR litter as a pawsome foursome 🥹

We have plenty of availability currently (and spots still available for our 4pm mewvie screening of Wicked tomorrow) so book online meow!

🐈 He's just a baby, somewhere between one and two.

🐈 He's a bit underweight

🐈 He's got an infection in his paw and is on pain relief and antibotics

🐈 He's 100% a cutie patootie

Mr. SPICY PANTS also known as Poe is slowly settling in after three weeks of trying to catch him.

He's really sweet deep down, and in the end I managed to catch him the old fashion way, with these two hands.

🌿 Cat Herb Series: Catnip

The second herb in our series is possibly the most well known: catnip!🌿🐱

While many people know you can buy catnip as a dried product, you can also grow it directly in your garden.

Catnip doesn't have an impact on all cats, and your cat's reaction to it can change too. For some cats it means zoomies and playtime, while for others it can mean rolling around, rubbing against things or settling down for a nap.

Whatever the reaction, it can be a great source of enrichment for your cat. 💚

How does your cat respond to catnip?
