✨Looking for a foster family✨

Either short time foster or forever foster needed

We still haven’t managed to secure a forever foster for our boy Batticus (Bat)

Key Points:

• Either a separate area from existing pets or a home with no existing pets

• Requires medication - Once daily

He’s a lovely boy but can be quite hostile towards other cats! We’re after a family that either has no pets or has a reasonably large area to house Bat to keep him away from other pets in the home - At least initially.

He may adjust to another cat if introductions are done slowly but we cannot confirm this. He has coexisted with some adults before but he became very violent towards one adult cat in the home and has got in a fair amount of fights with other cats when he had unsupervised outdoor access.

We will supply everything you’ll need - Food, litter, toys, bowls, litter trays, his medications and so on.

Bat is on two medications that are both given once a day in the morning - One medication is in pill form, the other is a liquid

If you’re able to help, please get in touch:

✨🐾 Happy Holidays from Flawless Paws🐾✨

As we reach the end of another whirlwind year, we wanted to take a moment to pause, breathe, and say thank you.

2025 has been beautiful, chaotic, emotional, exhausting, and deeply rewarding. We’ve faced challenges we never expected, worked through hardships behind the scenes, stretched every dollar, and poured every bit of our hearts into the cats who needed us most. And through it all, one thing never wavered—your support.

❤️ To every adopter who opened their home

❤️ To every donor who helped us keep the lights on and the food bowls full

❤️ To every foster who loved a cat or kitten through sickness, shyness, late-night feeds, or tough recoveries

❤️ To every volunteer who gave their time, hands, and hearts

❤️ To our local partners, vets, and community champions

…we truly could not do what we do without you.

This year, we rescued, healed, bottle-fed, vaccinated, soothed, cuddled, cried over, and celebrated so many cats. each with their own story, their own battles, and their own triumphs. Some made miraculous recoveries. Some found incredible forever homes. Some reminded us why we fight so hard. And some broke our hearts in ways only rescue people understand.

But every single one mattered.
And every single one was loved.

As we step into the holiday season, we hope you feel proud! because you are part of every life saved, every second chance, every purr, every tiny victory. Flawless Paws isn’t just our rescue… it’s a community movement powered by kindness.

✨ From our family (both two-legged and four-legged) to yours, we wish you a safe, peaceful, joy-filled holiday season. May it be full of warmth, rest, good food, and maybe even a cat or two curled up beside you. (If you'd be so lucky!)

Thank you for standing by us. Thank you for believing in us. And thank you for helping us change lives.

Here’s to a brighter, softer, kinder 2026.
With all our love,

The Flawless Paws Cat Rescue Team 🐾💛

Kia pai ngā hararei, Meri Kirihimete me te Tau Hou, e te whānau, ngā mihi nui.

About Me:

Bus Stop is kitten number two of the three kittens dumped at only a few hours old at a Hamilton bus stop. Bus Stop refused to latch onto a surrogate mother so our team bottle fed him from day one!

Don't forget - The Lawrenson Group Christmas Gift & Can Drive is back for 2025, and we're one of the charities benefitting from it!

Make a difference this holiday season while enjoying a few drinks at Keystone Bar and Restaurant, House on Hood, The Bank Bar and Brasserie, and Tipsy Putt. Take in a can of pet food (400g or larger) this weekend and you can swap it for a glass of beer, cider, or house wine (selected products only).

All pet food will be donated to Pound Hounds Rescue NZ, and The Pawphanage, who are in need of pet food this festive season.

Want to do something for the kids as well? Bring in a new toy with the receipt and you'll receive a Lawrenson Group voucher equal to the value of the present, or the equivalent discount from your bill (up to a maximum donation of $100).

All the toys will be donated to the children’s charity Barnados just in time for Christmas!

Terms and conditions apply. For more information, please email [email protected].

🌿 PĀTAKA KAI IS OPEN 🌿

With some new measures in place, we’ve decided to keep the pantry open — especially during the Christmas season, when times are hardest for many.

The pantry is monitored multiple times throughout the day and restocked whenever supplies allow.
Please only take SEALED bags of food, and please remember to leave some for others — you’re welcome to return another day 💚

📍 Location: Insoll Avenue, opposite Springfield Crescent
⏰ Available: 8:00am – 7:30pm
These hours help us monitor the pantry and reduce the damage we’ve experienced in the past.

📞 Please do not contact us directly unless the pantry is completely empty.
If you arrive and there is nothing available, we are more than happy to help and collect food for you.

If anyone can help out our friends at The Pawphanage, please get in touch with their team! Contact details are at the end of the post 💕

Are your and your whānau at home over the Christmas and New Years period and want to help save lives?

We’ve had a massive influx of kittens born to unfriendly māmās who all need to find foster homes to teach them how to love people.

They’ve all been weaned, are between 6 and 10 weeks old and the socialisation process has been started (they’re scared, not aggressive). Splitting litters into easily manageable sizes isn’t an issue.

We supply absolutely everything that you need (including crates or play pens), you just have to commit to showering them with love, showing them that the world is a wonderful place, and bringing them into the shelter on a fortnightly basis for a check-up.

If you’ve already signed up and currently have capacity, reach out ([email protected]), if you haven’t already signed up and want to lend a hand, jump on over to thepawphanage.nz/foster/
The Pawphanage is based in Hamilton.

NB: We are currently only in need of foster whānau for spicy kittens (and also friendly māmās with teeny-tinies)
