Tierney visited us recently for his first ever stay in a cattery. We couldn’t resist his cute little face with its slightly grumpy visage and big blue eyes. He started off very shy and reserved but grew in confidence as time went on. In fact, much to his mother’s embarrassment, he ended up getting rather bossy with the other cats necessitating a change of housing arrangement whereby he did not have to share with any other feline. Tierney is a very doted upon cat is now very pleased to be home again being treated like a king. 😻😻👑👑
Asha’s two favourite poses - looking distinguished with paws crossed or stretched out completely on a mat. ❤️❤️ Either way, he is an extremely lovable fellow.
Today is National Tabby Cat Day. Here are some of our tabby boarding residents !
Happy Day to all the tabbies out there - the stripey ones, the mackerel ones, the silver tabbies and even the tabby/torties. Being a dominant gene, you can even see tabby stripes on some solid coated cats.
On World Veterinary Day, 27th April, we would like to give a very big thank you to all the hard working veterinarians at Elgar Road Veterinary Hospital who look after our boarding cats . They are always ready with advice and/or medical assistance when required, whatever the issue. The cattery staff greatly appreciate your knowledge and the way you always listen to our concerns no matter how small or obscure. 😻😻
Lovely Birman Zoe enjoying the warm weather today. Look at her little ‘hands’ ❤️❤️
This adorable little face belongs to Jimmy! Isn’t he a cutie. Even better, his personality matches his looks 😻😻
Tofu is the prettiest little Devon Rex whose fur looks a lot like cotton wool balls. She has short whiskers which is typical of her breed and lots of energy. In fact, Mara had to give her a bit of a hug so she would be still enough for a photo 🥰🥰🤪🤪😻
A crowd gathers around the new grass pot!! Eating, chewing and the inevitable vomiting follows. 😻😻
Tom’s favourite activity when he stays at the cattery is to rip up boxes. He particularly loved the challenge of this box as it made from a very plastic-like cardboard. In fact, I doubted he would be able to chew it at all. Well, there’s nothing like proving the humans wrong! 😻😻
Bacon has some of the most majestic whiskers you’ll ever see 😻😻. He also has a delightful temperament with never a cross word (meow) or hiss to be said.
Happy Easter to all who celebrate!! Rubble, Caddy, Winnie, Bailey, Fox and Tom hope you are all having a great long weekend.
Lily is enjoying the sunshine on Good Friday morning. Is it too early to start eating Easter eggs yet ?
Teddy (black and white) gives us a very quick tongue out for TOT. His sister Yoarna (tortishell) wanted to join in too but she was so quick I missed the tongue!
Teddy is a loving and chatty boy who is a delight to care for. They are housed separately when boarding as Teddy has very specific dietary restrictions. He loves to visit Yoarna whenever he can though and when they meet up outside their enclosures they rub and sniff each other in greeting. ❤️❤️
Ginger Spice enjoying a short grooming session on a Caturday arvo!
Throwback to last weekend when I was trying to convince Roli to come in out of the heat. I’m sure all cat owners can agree that cats are a very stubborn critter and Roli is no exception. 🤣😻
And then there was one ……….
Bo Peep is our final remaining adoption kitten. ❤️
She is an extremely friendly tabby girl who would love a family to call her own. Bo Peep loves company and has a bold personality which would help her adjust to children and or other pets.
Please contact the Elgar Road Veterinary Hospital for details.

Minty having a lovely roll around this morning before heading back inside to the air conditioned cool.
Minty belongs to our casual staff member Hannah. ❤️❤️😻😻
Bertie (foreground in top photo) and handsome first-time-boarder Billee are getting all their chores done early today so they can stay out of the heat this afternoon. Good advice!
Both the lost pets we have recently posted about - Dusty the cat and Tigga the dog - are now home safely!
Pretty Ibu Abu jumps up on her back legs so she can get more pats. We refer to this move as a ‘wallaby’! ❤️❤️❤️
UPDATE 4TH March, 2024. TIGGA IS HOME SAFE AND SOUND!
Our vet clinic has two outgoing, adorable, affectionate kittens available for adoption right now. Read Bo Peep’s profile below and see Mr Potatohead on the previous post.
Bo Peep came into care as a tiny baby alongside her 3 siblings. She has been bottle fed by her dedicated human carer, and is now ready to venture off to a home of her own! -confident, friendly,...

Benji is proud to present Tongue out Tuesday today! He is a man who doesn’t hold back when giving his opinions. Comfy beds are obviously good! 😻😜😻.
Sumo is the brother of Ninja, who featured a few days ago. Sumo prides himself on his independence- no cuddly, baby like ragdoll behaviour for him thank you very much! Dignified pats are , at times, permitted 😻😻
Tongue out Tuesday today features Marlee. ❤️ Marlee is a very sweet Ragdoll who lives up to the breed expectations of being placid and cuddly. Thus is her first stay with us and she is being a real darling 😘😻😻
Behold the majestic Ninja. He is a very pretty cat and he knows it 😻😻
Happy Valentines Day to all our wonderful followers. If you are giving or receiving flowers today please keep clear of lilies as they can be severely toxic to our beloved cats. They don’t necessarily need to have eat or chewed them either, just rubbing against the stamen can deposit toxic pollen on their fur which is then infested as the cat grooms itself.

Roxette is looking for a forever home as part of the Elgar Road Vet clinic kitten adoption program. She is a real livewire and doesn’t hold back when trying to get her foster cat siblings to play. Roxette has taken a few weeks to feel fully comfortable in her foster home and bond with her foster parent. She has blossomed into a loving, loyal and happy cat. Please contact the vet clinic on 9899 9518 or the cattery on 9898 8978 if you wish to arrange a visit or discuss further. Source number BRI 00933 Microchip number 9530010100509806
Measles and purple rubber gloves - a love story. Does anybody else have a at who is obsessed with something?? Mara has to hide her gloves when she leaves the room or this boy pounces on them. Pink and green rubber gloves don attract him at all.
These cardboard houses always seem to bring out the crazy in our boarders! Just ask Princess Fiona, who stayed with us recently and immediately claimed this spot ❤
Who needs a heater when you have amazingly luscious ginger hair? Ron braved the cold this morning to show off his lovely tummy, even letting us give it a pat!
I imagine you've probably all seen cats 'kneading' or 'making biscuits' when getting themselves comfy on a lap or bed! But have you ever seen a cat 'making air biscuits'? Dash is so happy when receiving pats that her front legs start kneading! We were pleased to have gotten it on video, it's super cute 😍
Benji is our tongue out Tuesday star for today! Sometimes when cats are smelling something, you might see them pull a funny face, making them look quite shocked 🙀 This is something cats sometimes do to take in really interesting smells! Though technically called the flehmen response, here in the cattery we call it stink face!! Natasha clearly had something very interesting on her arm the other day, as mid-cuddle Benji stopped smooching and treated us to his beautiful stink face 😍
Louis has a tiny little blep for your tongue out Tuesday viewing! Don't look away, you might miss it 😝 This handsome boy can take a little while to settle in, but once he does he becomes a big smoochy baby ❤
