FURRY FRIENDS

Bella

Bella our beloved Groodle is the eldest at 7 years old and is the heart of our team. She thrives on closeness and is happiest when she's physically connected to you, whether that's sitting on your feet or nestled by your side. Her affectionate nature means she always knows when you're moving away and is ready to follow, ensuring she's never far from your side.

Teddy

Teddy, another Groodle in our team, has inherited her mother's looks and resembles a Golden Retriever, though she sheds less thanks to her mixed parentage. At 6 years old, Teddy is a year younger than her best buddy, Bella. While she's highly affectionate, Teddy can be enticed away by food, unlike Bella, who always chooses people over treats. Teddy excels at retrieving balls but graciously lets Bella win their fetch games. Despite being bigger, she gives Bella some good competition during playtime. Teddy and Bella are inseparable, often seen snuggling together or engaging in playful mouthing games to entertain everyone.

cloud

Cloud, our 6-year-old rescue cat from Bendigo, serves as our enthusiastic greeter. Often found outdoors, she will stretch out and request a pat as soon as you arrive, ensuring you feel welcome before you even step into the waiting room. Cloud loves creating burrows in the backyard, which she uses to launch surprise play attacks on the dogs. While she enjoys her food and being petted while eating, she does need a watchful eye to ensure she doesn't sneak food that's not meant for her.

skye

Skye, our 6-month-old ragdoll cat, is the newest addition to our team. Highly talkative and playful, Skye loves chasing scrunchy balls and honing her stalking skills by following anything that moves. She can be entertained for hours with a laser light toy. Skye also adores cuddling and, being very flexible, loves to be held like a little baby, curled up in your arms.
