🐾 Happy International Cat Day! 🐾

Today is a joyful tribute to the incredible cats who fill our homes with laughter and our lives with love.😻😻😻

Every cat brings a one-of-a-kind personality to the family.

The greatest gift we can offer our fluffs is to truly know them as unique beings: their favourite things, their pet peeves, their daily rituals, boundaries, and every charming quirk that makes them who they are.

If you had to describe your fluff's personality in three words, what would they be?

I have begun with my cats, Miss Penelope Purrfect, Mr. Needy McGreedy, and the head of the house, Royston 'Royboy'. I have circled the personality traits, but you have to guess which belong to which cat.

Post your pictures and stories in the comments below. Share your favourite moments and introduce us to your one-of-a-kind feline friend. Sarah🐾🐾

Regular wellness checks help you know what’s normal for your cat and spot small changes that might otherwise go unnoticed, whether your cat is a playful kitten or a senior.

For kittens, I focus on healthy growth and building good habits for life.

For adult cats, I help set a baseline and support their ongoing health.

For mature and senior cats, I pay extra attention to weight, muscle condition, mobility, grooming, and any age-related changes.

🏠 All visits take place in the comfort of your cat’s own home.
🐾 Your cat will be cared for by a Registered Veterinary Nurse.
💛 With over 30 years of experience caring for cats.

If I notice anything concerning, I will recommend a vet consultation.

🌟 Matariki ki a koe! 🌟

As we celebrate the Māori New Year today, I want to honor this special time of new beginnings.

Matariki reminds us to reflect, connect, and cherish what matters most, including our fur family who bring so much joy to our lives.

Today we can remember the pets who've crossed the rainbow bridge since last Matariki, celebrating the precious bonds we share with our current fluffs and pups, and looking forward to a year of continued care and healing for all creatures great and small.

Wishing you and your furry whānau a blessed Matariki filled with love, warmth, and plenty of tail wags! 🐾✨

Introducing Missy Moo 😻

This gorgeous bundle of fur is one of the tiniest I have visited this year. She had gained weight since her first vet check at the clinic, and her mom has already been fantastic at getting her socialised while she's still in her protective little bubble.

Part of the socialisation
🐾Introducing kittens to various people and pets during the socialisation period
🐾Acclimating to handling, brushing, nail trimming, grooming, and medication administration
🐾 The use of hands or feet as toys during play to avoid the risk of future aggressive behaviour
🐾 teaching cue/response, such as come or sit, using positive reinforcement
