It appears we are experiencing BIG delays in getting emails
(Just got a bunch from 30th June onwards)

If you get no reply, please call while we get this fixed 🙃

At least if it's going to be this cold, let it snow. Some of our guests are dreaming of it 🤣

😻 Kitten Kapers 😻
All four fur kids have now mastered the ramp wall (aka "The Racetrack" as we used to call it with Ripley and Bayley). Miss tiny-legged Snickers was the last, she couldn't quite reach. But last night she took the leap, succeeded and has given it a great workout ever since! We feel like proud pawrents with them all graduating 🤣👨‍🎓👩🏼‍🎓

💖 Funny feedback email 💖
(Maxi's pawrent has given permission to show it).

Dear Sonia & Shane,

When I first walked in and saw your shirts covered in cat hair, I thought "they could at least have clean clothes this early in the morning, what will the rest of the place be like?". My expectations weren't great.

When you took me through to get Maxi settled into his room, we were greeted with every single other "furry guest" (as you both call them), coming to their doors to say hello. But it wasn't hello to me, they were coming to you.

This happened both at the time of dropping my puss off with Shane and picking him up, with Sonia.

Little did I realise your whole Cattery was spotlessly clean. There was no smell even though there wasn't a single vacant room.

Your "hairy" shirts and the way the cats all gravitated to you like something out of the Pied Piper, as you walked down the centre, was just an indication that you loved them, spent time with them & they loved you in return. My boy Maxi included.

I was clearly too quick to judge. So I would like to thank you both for providing the holiday that you did for my Maxi. And in turn, for the first time in years, a holiday for me.

What is black & white & red all over? Nope, it's not a riddle from years ago where the answer is "a newspaper" 🤣 It's half our Cat House guests over the last couple of weeks (forgot to get pics of some who left earlier in the week!)

On a night like this, where we are already at 6⁰c at 10pm, there's only 2 places to be in our opinion. In the Cattery where the heater is on for the night and the cats are lovin' it, all snugg and warm 💕 or with Snickers and Jerry in front of the fire 🤣🔥🤣

Well what a strange couple of months we've had. We've never picked up so many things in our furry guests that needed vet treatment! We will N-E-V-E-R present ourselves as vets or vet nurses, because we are not! But what we can do is spend a heap of time with all our furry guests and in doing so, make observations of anything that seems abnormal. Even better is when they have stayed previously and we have a history on them. From doing this, we have helped identify the following, over the last 8wks:

* 3 x cases of Diabetes
* 3 x cases of Kidney Disease
* 3 x cases of Arthritis
* 2 x Urinary Infections (found on day of arrival, so been there before coming in)
* 1 x Skin/Food Allergy (still being tested)
* 1 x Ear Infection
* 1 x yet to be determined, but receiving treatment before possible tests.

As you would imagine with alot of observing (to make sure we're not raising alarm bells for no reason), communication and updates with the owners &/or vets, vet trips etc, each individual case requires alot of time (often up until 11pm for regular checks).

But we don't mind doing it for those who appreciate it!

As we always say, we don't just provide a roof over your cats head and chuck some food in a bowl. While they are in our care, we go out of our way to do that - care. For every furry guest.

We also recognise how worrying it can be getting the dreaded email or phone call to say that there might be something wrong. So we aim to support a pawrent through that, as best we can 🫂 ❤️

Most of our pawrents over this time have been amazing 🤩 We are so grateful for your willingness to listen and really hear our concerns, but most of all trust and respect us enough to help us do something for your fur kid. We also thank you for your updates after they have left our care. We SO appreciate you! 💕

And to the emergency contacts we have had to communicate with, when the owners were unavailable, you have been awesome too!

Thennnnnn on the flipside, the couple who avoided answering any of our basic questions, wouldn't hear our concerns and appeared to show no respect for us at all ...... We are very happy we persisted and pushed for a vet visit and went with our gut. We hear along the grapevine things are much more comfortable for them now that they are receiving treatment. Maybe one day we will receive an apology and perhaps a thank you. But in the meantime we're just happy we put the fur kids first, persisted and were eventually able to get help.

Have a wonderful weekend everyone, we hope ours is alot quieter 🤣🤪🙃 now to have a drink! 🍷 🍻🤣

Our boys Aspen and Huey might only be young fur kids but they're keen to open their own business. Remeowdial, Kneading or ShiCATsu massages anyone? It will earn them some pawcket money. They're taking bookings now 😹😸😻

Finally getting some piccies up! May has been a very busy month and the reason why we allllllways say we're not only full in school holidays. Apologies though, these furry guests are only those from around the 20th May onwards - we missed getting photos earlier in the month 🫣

Furry guest pics are coming!
We've had record numbers of newbies & they've needed a little more of our time & TLC to settle in
