⚡⚡⚡ With all these storms, we've found many of our furry guests's owners hear of the bad weather via friends/family, social media and the news. And of course, can become concerned.

Feel free to check in with us if you're worried about your fur kid. And if we are concerned at all, whether it be how our place my fare through the storm or how an individual cat is handling it, we will always contact you.

(As we're sure others can vouch for if they have had fur kids in with us across bad weather, including the March cyclone).

If it helps give peace of mind, especially with the recent hail storms. Our furry guests are all brought in off the decks well before bad weather hits. Their individual windows have screens and the windows are locked, as well as having the outdoor areas surrounding the whole building - all acting as a great barrier against the rain, wind & hail to help keep your fur kids safe 💖

The rule is all fur kids in off the Catio by 5.45pm. Hmmmmm. Well we felt bad about Mr Comfy Pants 💙 So gave him another half an hour and now we feel even worse 🤔

Here we have furry guest Ziggy. This lil' lady has stayed with us before but got diagnosed with Diabetes a few weeks before coming in for her November holiday.

Once the initial vet appointments were done, the very next thing her owner did was contact us. We hugely appreciated her keeping us up to date as soon as anything changed, and discussing her treatment.

It meant we were able to look at Ziggy's past records and see that she settled very quickly last time and was purrrrrrfectly fine with us touching/picking her up etc within hours of arriving.

This, along with our years of administering injections, meant we were happy to have her stay and do what is needed for her medically.

** Note: This isn't the case for every furry guest in this position **

If a cat is new to us (ie never stayed with us before) we will not agree to something like this because we have no idea how the cat is in OUR environment. Which can be totally different to how they are in their own home!

If a cat has stayed with us before, but we know they won't tolerate us giving medical treatment, we will not agree to having them stay. This goes for medications given orally too.

If we can't comfortably treat your cat without running a risk of being bitten, scratched, attacked, or causing elevated stress to your cat, we will not agree to doing it.

And lastly communication with a capital C. Honest communication. The more communication we have with owners, the more we try to work with you to give the best of care.

Those who don't communicate honestly just raise a bunch of red flags 🚩 because our instant thought is "what else aren't you telling us"?

It's a 2-way street. We are hugely grateful to owners like Ziggy's for their openness and honesty, which in turn means they are grateful we can help do what is needed while they're away.

🥰 Kitten Kapers by Jerry 🥰
Hi guys, I'm Jerry 😀 aka "Belly Bear". I'm the brother of Snickers, Aspen & Huey. I'll turn one in January and I'm a handsome Burmese.

I'm the thinker in the family. While my brothers & sister are drinking from a water fountain, watching Cat TV or playing with the robot ball, I'm the one sitting back with my arms crossed, trying to figure out how all these things work.

I mean, how does the water come out of the spout? I really want to know and after hours of studying it (amongst other very important workings of random objects) I still don't have answers!

I'm also the one who, if you could sit with me 24hrs a day and pat my belly, I would be the happiest boy in the world 🩵😁

I love my food, but I still opt for belly rubs first! 🥰 Any chance I get, I'll stretch out to expose my belly and give my pawrents a big HINT. And when I get my belly rubs I have a big smile on my face that my pawrents say comes with "happy dimples" in my cheeks.

I love pink or orange toys the most and carry them round in my mouth like babies. I also love belly rubs.... Oh hang on, I think I already said that 🤔

I'm ultra easy going, and most of the time I opt out of the riff-raff that my siblings can go on with, to just sit and ponder about the world. Oh and I just LOVE belly rubs 🥰

My family love me to bits, how could you not 🩵

⭐ Our Cancellation List ⭐
We COMPLETELY understand if you are sitting on our cancellation list you get to a point where you have to start looking elsewhere. Totally understandable, you can't wait forever!

But what we are confused about are those who we've had ALOT of regular contact with, keeping them updated (as we promise to do) if we may have a change coming in. THEN we contact them to say we have a spot and we get ghosted 👻 Just a simple reply will do, even if you have made other arrangements.

The lack of any response leaves us feeling very defeated. This time could have been spent on giving a spot to someone who appreciates our Cattery and the care we give. Or better yet, time with our current furry guests which is always our #1 priority!

Not cool. And seems to be happening a lot lately 😡

The dreaded storm season is our least fave time of the year 🥴 ⛈️⚡and what many might not realise is, there's a whole process here, to ensure all our furry guests stay as calm and stress-free as possible. Fear of storms in any animal is very real, let alone when you have 30-ish guests all under one roof & away from their homes and pawrents! 🐾 🌩️ 😶‍🌫️

🌩️ We have the weather radar up constantly so we don't get any surprises.
🌩️ We also watch for behaviour changes in our furry guests. Often they tell us well before the radar shows us!
🌩️ We bring all our guests inside early & close all windows, before it actually hits.
🌩️ Our relaxing music that is always playing, is turned up a few notches to help cover the more scary noises.
🌩️ Lights are kept on to cover up the lightning flashes.
🌩️ Wherever possible one of us will always try to be in the Cat House, to talk calmly to all guests, sit with the nervous nellies & reassure everyone.
🌩️ If a storm catches us by surprise (@ 3am for example) we still go over to check on everyone and reassure them.
🌩️ In the event that we're hit with a very severe storm (that's all over the news etc) we also try to reassure our furry guests' pawrents via email or a Facebook post that all is ok.

It can be pretty scary for those puds not in their own environment so our 'storm procedure' just makes it that lil' bit easier while they're away from home. The calmer and more prepared we both are, the calmer all our guests are 💕😻

💖 We are all set to drop off our next food donation to Cat Rescue Gold Coast Inc. 💖

Thank you so much to all those who have added their unused/unwanted cat food to our own stash. We have a bundle of tins, sachets, and heaps of yummy treats 😋

Every little bit helps and It's always very much appreciated by us, but most of all CRGC.

(For those who donated special prescription diets, these have all found homes, or should we say cat tummies) 💖

🌟😻 Kitten Kapers by Aspen😻🌟
Following our boy Huey's post from 26th Oct, our next is his brother Aspen...

Toodle-loo👋🏼 I'm Aspen (aka how do we say this.... the one on the spectrum. As in, we actually fully believe he is and find this so interesting in a cat!). I'm a very loving and affectionate young boy that is uniquely different in the quirkiest of ways.

I'm the reason why my pawrents have 5723 distraction ideas that literally come out of a box! A very big box. I have the attention span of a goldfish but at the same time I'm intelligent and have taught myself to play fetch.

I'm the one that sleeps the least because my mind is constantly on the go. Yet I'm also ultra chilled and relaxed. It's like I'm 2 personalities all rolled into 1 🤷‍♂️

I love, LOVE, lurrrrrve to play as long as my toys get switched round about every 30seconds or I get bored and annoy my siblings Huey, Jerry & Snickers. Put it this way, I know the word "NO" 🫣

My fave thing to do is watch the big screen TV with my Dad (I rather like car racing), or the bird video is also a hit. And while my pawrents give us all the comfy bedding, my choice is a chewed up Coles shopping bag. I find it sooooo comfy!

All my quirks and goofball-ness is accepted by my pawrents as well as my fur siblings. Because it's just me and who wants to be all the same, that's pretty boring! 🩵🥰😻

We've had quite a few of our regular guests staying over the past couple of months, where we've noticed big changes in them compared to previous holidays. With their litter use, eating habits or the amount they drink.

We will always give our observations as part of our updates & feedback. No "they ate well" here. It's 100% honesty.

As we always say, we are not vets or vet nurses, we just own a cattery & are with your fur kids for many hours a day.

Our observations are based off previous visits (if your not new to us) and what is the "norm" based of having hundreds of cats stay with us each year.

All we can do is pass our observations on and it's then up to the pawrents to monitor or seek vet advice.

At the end of the day, we get it! stuff gets missed in a normal busy life of everyone's home. Even harder, is if you have more than one pet!

If we ever have that conversation with you, we're not judging at all. We're just taking an opportunity where we can help if something in our observations (and gut!) is telling us things aren't right.
💖 We always put the furry guests first 💖

👻 Happy Halloween 👻

🌟😻 Kitten Kapers by Huey😻🌟
Everyone asks our pawrents lots of questions about us new fur kids, because they don't know us like they knew our past siblings Bayley, Ripley & Lucy. So over the next few weeks, our Kitten Kapers will be a little bit about each of us.

So howdy 👋🏼 I'm Huey (aka Sticky because I stick to my mumma like glue). I've just turned 1, can you believe. And I'm a Burmilla.

I'm the boy with the biggest appetite. Mum n Dad has to put me in a room to eat or I go round trying to steal everyone else's 😋

I'm very chilled, independent (despite my stickyness), and I could sleep through an earthquake.

I love to smack things to get them to do what I want. If I want the fireplace on, I smack it. If I want something moved, I smack it. If I want to be vacuumed (yes I like to be vacuumed) I smack it til my mum n dad run it over my back.

My fave toy is a green fish that I bat around for hours and I always sit in very strange positions as if my spine is made of rubber. Mum n Dad often call me "the pretzel" 🥨

All my quirks are accepted by my pawrents as well as my fur siblings Aspen, Jerry & Snickers. Because it's just me 🤷‍♂️🩵🥰😻
