🐾 Bruticus’s Purr-suit of Style! 🐾
Check out Bruticus, our fabulous feline friend who is rocking his latest look in his full kitty suit 🐱✨ These suits are designed to make any kitty look like a runway model while keeping them cozy and secure... which was 100% necessary for Bruticus, who is a recently diagnosed diabetic that needed his monitor re-fitted after he scratched it off.
Thanks, Bruticus, for showing everyone that life as a diabetic cat doesn't have to be dull—it can be a fashion statement too! Sending lots of purrs and positive vibes to our dapper kitty while he navigates this new journey! 💙

MABEL The Tauranga District Court Dog getting in one last cuddle with Donna before heading off home after a day in hospital

Thank you to Scott and the team Barkes Corner Vet Hospital & Brookfield Vet Centre for taking care of Mabel today.

She had a sore armpit and we thought it could have been a grass seed so she was sedated for Scott to have a proper look but nothing found.
And she got a bonus cuddle from Donna.
