Our sweet wee girl Fluff was petite in stature but big on purrs and cuddles. She moved in with us with her savvy mum Shady some years back. They invaded our lives and we're so glad they did! Although Fluff lived to be an old girl she was always our "kitten" and "little bear".
Her "bowl and blankie" are sadly put away now and her cat door is closed. Our home is eerily quiet without the soft patter of her paws or purrs.
We are grateful for the care provided by James and Kirstie at Pet Reflections. Our little family member's ashes are back and taking pride of place alongside mum Shady. The cremation certificate with her paw prints was unexpected and very heart-warming. It will always be treasured.
Andrew (Pom) and geraldine

Karu blessed our lives when she was 18months, after her young adult previous owner passed away.
We called her Karu because her eyes always let you know how she was feeling. She totally loved life, she would always bring you her ball once you stepped outside, and if you tried to ignore her, she would go and find a stick for you to throw. She loved being a sibling in our whanau and would hang out with the kids and their mates like she was a young adult as well. She also knew when someone wasn't well and would lie around showing her sad eyes until they felt better.
The last year has been the hardest, at nearly 14yrs she slowed down and was always in pain. A huge thanks to Care Vets who absolutely suit their name, you tried so hard but at the end of the day we know she is with her dad in heaven, chasing that ball until her heart's content. We will always love you Karu ❤️
Thank you Pet Reflections for making this process so graceful

She was a true protector.

She enjoyed having the mokos running around with her. She loved welcoming them home from kura.

We were very lucky to have her in our lives.

Our cat Tipi-haere misses her mate, as we all do.

Puss 10/10/23 (front pic)
Kitty 27/08/24 (back pic)
Words cannot express how grateful I am that both my ragdolls Puss (10 years old) and Kitty (16 years old) both crossed the rainbow bridge within nearly one year of each other, and I was lucky enough to have them cared for by Carevets and respectfully cremated by Pet Reflections to have them with me for the rest of my life.
Kitty was a year old when my late partner brought her home one night after me begging for a white cat. She was very timid to begin with and didn't like females very much but took to any male who showed her attention. Slowly over time she blended in with my pet expanding family however males were always her favorite. She was my little fighter, never once got sick or even visited a vet in her life until recently. Kitty was loved and very much a part of my family and having been gifted by my late partner and daughter's dad I found it really hard to let her go, but I also knew I had to put her comfort in front of my sentimental memories.
Puss was actually my mum's kitten for 2 days before I just fell in love with him and basically stole him from her since she also had his sibling, I remember saying to Mum you don't need two ragdolls mum and took him home with me. He lived a good life, loved sunbathing on the deck in summer and then come winter the fireplace was his best friend. Puss was my big boy and wandered during the day then returned at night to jump on my bed, either wet or dirty at some ridiculous hour. Unfortunately, Puss got really sick very quickly and after medications to try and keep him comfortable until I was ready, I had to make the difficult decision to let him cross that rainbow bridge without further suffering. Again, Carevets were amazing, loving and supportive and this is when I found out about Pet Reflections and just knew I had to do it as this service was now local without having to send my furbabies out of town. So again, thank you Kirstie and James.
My little pet family will always be with me, and I so appreciate what you have done for our community providing this service.

Yesterday we had to do a really hard thing, we had to say goodbye to our sweet Sid 🐈‍⬛ Sid was only 3 years old, kidney cancer got hold of him much too young.

Yesterday was the reason we do what we do ❤️It is a comfort knowing exactly where his journey goes and that he will be back with us soon! Massive shoutout to the amazing Sophie for making his last moments so calm and special. We will forever be thankful for you❤️

RIL silly Sid cat, it’s going to be cold at night without you on my neck, hope dad remembers to feed the dogs without your meowing as a reminder and I hope that wherever you are they appreciate your bird gifts on the carpet more than we did. 🪽🐾

Jemma 2009 - 2024
On Saturday 13 July we gave Jemma her angel wings, 2 weeks short of her 15th birthday. A life well lived, and we will miss her. We chose her at 6 weeks old and she has been with us ever since. Destruction will remain in my home with eaten furniture and added fence timber to stop the best escape artist ever! And her record with the pound will remain.

My children were 7 & 9 when she entered our lives, so they grew into adults with her by their side. Her 5am wakeups will not be missed but her arrival home greetings and everything in between will be.

Fly high Jem, we love you and have 1000s of memories to keep you close to our hearts forever.

Nala was a very quiet yet sassy girl, she loved hunting in the pouring rain and never coming back empty pawed and enoying the catch with her sister Ivy, Helping hang the washing, Going up for treats at Nanas every morning and pinching her uncle speedys ones while he slept and most importantly BELLY RUBS!!! She would stretch out for one any chance she got. Nala had the typical older sister attitude when it came to her little sister Ivy playfighting one second then cuddled up the next. I will miss her forever.

BoyBoy was not just a pet; he was a cherished member of our whānau, bringing joy, comfort, and countless unforgettable moments into our lives.

From the first day BoyBoy bounded into our home, his playful spirit and affectionate nature touched everyone he met. He had a unique way of sensing when we needed a cuddle, and his purrs were the perfect remedy for any bad day. His mischievous antics and adventurous nature kept us on our toes, and his loving presence filled our hearts with warmth.

BoyBoy's favorite spot was the sunniest corner of the living room, where he would stretch out and bask in the sunlight, reminding us all to enjoy life's simple pleasures. He had an undeniable charm that made every visitor feel welcome, and his loyalty to us was unwavering.

Though BoyBoy's time with us was cut short, his memory will forever be etched in our hearts. We will miss his gentle nudges, his comforting purrs, and the way he made our house feel like a home. BoyBoy, you were more than a pet; you were whānau, and our lives are richer for having loved you.

Rest in peace, our beautiful BoyBoy. You will always be our magnificent black panther.

Tribute for Ataahua 🐾

Ataahua was gifted to me when I was living in Australia so when I returned home to NZ of course she was coming too.
My beautiful girl Ataahua was by my side during my darkest days, my sadest and lowest period's after whanau losses. She sensed grief but had the ability to lift you up just when you needed it most. She was my saviour, protector and best friend, such a much loved kuri, she never barked, loved going on tiki tours, she loved the beach and paddling in the sea. When she become sick it was out of pure love to make the decision to euthanise her. Her final journey with Kristie and James was so fitting and I cannot thank you's enough for treating my gurl with the utmost respect and compassion. Miss you so much my gurl. Life doesn't last forever... love does ..

Tribute for Lulu: 🐶🐾

Our 15 year old Lulu was a very special needs wee girl.
She was loved to the moon and back.
Lulu was the boss of our house together with being a loyal, devoted and sometimes a bit naughty fur baby.
Her favourite place on earth was Makarorie beach.
She would run free off lead sniffing every log she came across with a huge grin on her face.
In January 24, she began to deteriorate having suffered with cognitive decline for 18 months.
Kirsty and James treated her with so much care and dignity.
Thank you guys for making Lulus final journey so beautiful.

Tribute for Harley: 🐱🐾

It was a very sad day when we had to say goodbye to our big beautiful Harley Puss. He started his life with us because he chose us 11 years ago. He has been living with our daughter Allie & her partner Cain for the last year. Allie had to make the hard decision to let him go with dignity. He was put to sleep at home, next to his favourite Rose bush, lying in Allie's lap, surrounded by his family. He went peacefully with lots of love & cuddles. It was a very easy decision to have Harley cremated. The care, respect and compassion shown by James & Kirstie is amazing. We knew that Harley was safe in their care, outstanding service.

Tribute for Manu: 🐾❤

Manu came into our lives as a rescue dog aged approximately 4 years. It's true what they say he selected us.
He was a gentle friendly sole that was well known throughout Manutuke. He loved people and children and loved his pats, belly rubs, walks, car rides and camping.
Manu fitted right into our family and home and everyone knew it was Manu's house.
At 11 years old (far to early) around Xmas 23/24 Manu was diagnosed with Cancer.
As devastating as it was for our family we ensured his last few weeks were filled with Love and treats.
Pet Reflections offered the perfect service fitting of our loved boy. Kirstie and James didn't disappoint displaying the upmost care and respect.

We have our boy back home now. Thank you Pet Reflections.
