My foster mum says I’m about 5 years old. I remember that I when I was a kitten, I had a home then I was suddenly on my own, I couldn’t find my family so I had to find my own food and my own bed. I was so lonely and afraid until my foster mum said I could stay for a while with her. I had been spayed, but my teeth were rotten, so foster mum asked the vet to take them out, which means I have to eat soft food and kitten crackers. I have had my vaccinations and I have no worms or fleas.
I have luxurious black and white fur and a lovely pink collar.
Once I get to know you, I will give you cuddles on your lap and my purr will send you to sleep. But I don’t like to be picked up very much. It frightens me a bit.
I need my own older family of hoomans to love me so I can give all the love inside me back.
You can phone my foster mum on 09 2676455 or text: 027 2760414

We offer the most affordable & serene Pet Stay in Auckland, offering a number of affordable solutions for day stays or longer term boarding needs.
Fairfield Pet Lodge (FPL) is family owned and operated and has been in the Taljaard family (Anton, Crisna and Ashlee) ownership for the past six years, but the facility was established in approximately 1978! FPL is situated on a lifestyle block of 5 stunning hectares including lush paddocks, large gardens and mature trees, located about 7.5km from Clevdon and just under 40km from Auckland airport.
Anton has an abundance of experience with animals, serving 12 years as a dog handler in the South African Police Service, shortly after arriving to NZ he volunteered his services at the SPCA in Mangere. He also holds several degrees in business and management. Therefore, it's no surprise that managing FPL is based on modern and sustainable practises. hence the slogan "We do not follow we lead" holds true for FPL
You will find a heap of information and reviews on our website (https://fairfieldpetlodge.nz/) and facebook (https://www.facebook.com/fairfieldpetlodge/)
PET STAY NOTE: Reservations for holiday periods, especially Christmas fill fast, so don't delay book today! Out of season reservations can be made at shorter notice
