Hi everyone it’s Jodie here, long time no see!👋🏻
I still help out feeding the yaps cats on the weekends as well as doing some fostering to help cats find their new furrever homes.
Little Emily is one of my most recent yaps foster cats and because of her age she doesn’t get many meet ‘n’ greets which I think is quite sad!
So I’m reaching out on here to see if anyone might have room in their house for this cute little senior lady?! I know a few of our regular senior boarding cats have sadly passed away in the last 12 months so maybe someone out there is now ready for a new feline friend again? 👀

A big part of fostering animals in need is HELPING THEM, NOT KEEPING THEM, and I would love to help foster heaps more cats so no “you should keep her” comments please. 😉

A bit about Emily:
🔸miss independent.
🔸very small built cat.
🔸loves her food, not fussy at all.
🔸yaps recently had her teeth checked and cleaned so she has a fabulous new smile …
🔸is approx 8/9 years old.
🔸not a fan at all of other cats getting too close to her - she will tell them off quite loudly.
🔸might be best in an only cat household.
🔸has somehow tolerated a Jack Russell so MAY be ok with a small dog.
🔸loves sleeping.

If anyone would like to meet Emily please come down to the yaps adoption centre in bungalow on Saturdays 11-3, or email [email protected] to arrange a different meet and greet time with Carol or myself.

Thanks! 🥰

Happy New Year to all!
I thought I'd finalise the year with a bit of a photo update of some of our boarders over the past few months (cause I've been a bit slack with Facebook updates) hoping to get posts out more regularly in 2026.
Wishing everyone a wonderful night and a brilliant 2026 😸🥳🥂

Hi all! It’s Jodie here! 🙋‍♀️
The time has come for me to pursue new adventures and sadly move on from my duty manager / office role in cat boarding.
I have been here 11 years all up but 8 years as a duty manager.
I will be handing this page over to Jo and Bianca this week and I’m sure their Facebook posts will keep you all entertained just as much as mine have over the years. 😉
(no pressure ladies).
You will still see me out the back with the boarding cats from time to time, I will miss them all too much otherwise! 😢
Here are a few of my favourite photos from my time here as a manager.
If you see me around occasionally, be sure to come and say hi. 👋🏻

~ Jodie aka the cat whisperer. 🥰
