We had an unexpected visit this morning from two beautiful pawrents ๐Ÿ’– They had come to deliver the news their beloved pud Jazzi, had passed a couple of weeks ago.

While it was a visit initially filled with sadness from all of us, by the end we were reminiscing and laughing about all the wonderful memories we had. Memories that spanned across their 2 cats and many, many years of holidays with us.

We felt blessed they took the time to fill us in and they even put their heartache aside to give us a thank you card, photos and a gorgeous bunch of flowers, for looking after their fur babies over the years! ๐Ÿฅฐ

This family was one of our first ever families over 16yrs ago. And although there are no plans for them to get another cat, they will always be welcome to drop in and catch up. They're part of our family, as we are theirs.

For us, our furry guests and their pawrents aren't seen as numbers (or worse, dollar signs). You are all real people with fur kids who are part of the family. And every loss is felt by us too because of the relationship we build with you and your fur babies ๐Ÿ’–

๐Ÿ˜ป Our Happy Meows from the first half of Sept ๐Ÿ˜ป
As always, a busy time with many staying through into next month as their pawrents are travelling overseas or in caravans around Australia.
(Apologies to a couple of shorter stays at the start of Sept- we didn't get pics ๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿ“ท)

๐ŸŒณ๐ŸŒผ It's pollen season ๐ŸŒผ๐ŸŒณ
If you arrive to pickup/drop off your fur kid on a day like today, where it's been blowing a gale, you will probably find the Cat House all closed up. And yes, with our furry guests NOT outside on the decks!

Our place is surrounded by hundreds of native trees which, on windy days like today, are covering the entire place in tiny flowers and pollen. And like humans, cats can have reactions to allergy season too. So for the health and comfort of all our furry guests, on these wild windy days, they have a rest day inside ๐Ÿ’–

๐Ÿ’– We said goodbye this afternoon, to one of our longer term fur families ๐Ÿ’– It feels like these 5 arrived when it was a different season ๐Ÿคฃ but they are off to their newly renovated home and their excited pawrents.

๐Ÿ˜ป We'll miss your kind eyes Tinkerbell, where we can tell exactly what you're thinking. You're like a spring chicken for a 17yr old lil' lady.
๐Ÿ˜ป Matilda, your motherly antics will be missed, always keeping a close eye on all the fam, as well as us!
๐Ÿ˜ป Who will play hide & seek with us now Miss Coco?
๐Ÿ˜ป And Sophie, despite your health problems, you were the fastest in the Cat House, to be waiting at your door for wet food. And we will still chuckle for a while yet, over how you managed to shove the rest of your siblings out of the way to get a bit of everyone's food.
๐Ÿ˜ป Trim, we probably won't miss your stubbornness to come inside off the deck every afternoon ๐Ÿ˜ but will miss the smacks over our head or arm to get our attention.

Til next time fur kids! And behave yourselves while your pawrents finish up the last of the reno's. You all promised us you would ๐Ÿ˜‰

Here are a few tips we use all the time. Often we mention them to pawrents and they've never thought of it. So we're sharing in case they can help others ๐Ÿ˜ป

๐Ÿ˜ป Tip 1: Always add 1-2 tablespoons of water to wet food. Give it a mix and the cat doesn't even know. Great for kidney/urinary cats! We actually do this for every furry guest on wet food, so they always get a little extra fluids.

๐Ÿ˜ป Tip 2: Got an ant problem? Try putting a layer of talcum powder under your cats food bowl. Ants hate it! But it's harmless to the pud & they don't know it's even there.

๐Ÿ˜ป Tip 3: Your cat seems 'fussy' with food? Mix it up. Don't feed the same flavour every day for wet food and make up a mix of a few dry types for their biccies. You probably don't eat the same every day either ๐Ÿคฃ

๐Ÿ˜ป Tip 4: Your cat is a water baby and plays in their drinking water? Put their water bowl in a water bath. It's surprising how many still only play in the bowl in the middle, while the bath catches 99% of it, instead of the floor.

๐Ÿ˜ป Tip 5: Many animal medications are given via the transdermal method (meds compounded into a cream that's rubbed into the skin of the inner ear) but humans can't come into contact with it, so gloves must be worn. If you have a cat that receives meds this way just cut all the fingers off disposable gloves and drastically cut down the number of gloves you go through and it's easy peasy!

๐Ÿ˜ป Tip 6: Your pud doesn't travel well? Don't feed them before going in the car and get your paws on some puppy p*e pads to put in their carrier. (Places like Kmart and eBay sell them cheap!). It might not "fix" it but will help to reduce the problem and make it easier for cleanups!

We have hit the pawwws button on NEW 2026 bookings, while we enter the hundreds we already have into the book.
You can still send new ones, there's just a delay in confirming if we have availability ๐Ÿ˜

Lieutenant Dan is one of our regular furry guests who has been coming for many years. He's a 'tripod cat' (one of 6 we have come and stay with us). And to look at him, most wouldn't even know he only has 3 legs.

He leads a very normal, happy life and can do pretty much anything a 4-legged cat can do. We think the look of satisfaction on his face at the end of this video, says it all - "What missing leg?" ๐Ÿ˜ป๐Ÿฉต
