Fancy cat Toys

You know Cats are a lot like little kids, when it comes to finding the right toy for them, you could find yourself spending a tone of money on all those fancy toys, but at the end of the day all they really want is a cardboard box, some sticks and leaves from the garden or that ball of wool you just happen to be making a beautiful new jumper out of.

The Box

Real toys for real cats

If you’re having trouble with cats scratching at  the carpet, try putting a box on the floor…. Studies show Cats love boxes   www.deloraine.co.nz

BizDates – Northern Advocate – 22/8/2011

Murray from Hirepool has donated six porta-loos, Kristen from Monster Graphics has offered to design the flyers, Adam from Paper Plus will make a donation to the lions club for parking marshals – Rachael Seymour’s crazy idea of the Cause for Paws expo on November 26 has certainly touched a chord (or a paw ). The event is a fundraiser for the Whangarei SPCA and for work to prevent animal cruelty. Mrs Seymour, who owns Deloraine Cattery where the event will be held, is looking for all the support she can get from business for what is planned as a family day with everything from dog shows to pony rides and the opportunity for pet adoption. Information on events and business exposure opportunities: 09 436 3616 www.deloraine.co.nz

Cattery Whangarei – Testimonial –

Hi – my name is Honeybee, I can be very demanding at times and enjoy some fancy treats, so when mum & dad need a break I go stay with Rachael & David at Deloraine cattery. I stay in the large communal room, we have our own pad at nights. It is really neat with lots of things do and great big windows to see what is going on. I know if I play my cards right I get to have time out with my minders! Hope to see you soon at Deloraine – Honeybee.
