🐾FRIDAY FEATURE🐾

Meet Iris! ❤ Iris was around 8 weeks old when she was rescued by the RSPCA from a rubbish dump in Melbourne. When she was rescued, her family were very quick to notice how smart she is! Iris will open door handles, escape from her crate & will even reach the kitchen bench to steal food!

Iris loves to spend time with her sister Elly and brother Bryan (even freeing Bryan from his crate!), soaking in the warmth from the fireplace, running around the beach with her family and is very food motivated! 🐶🍕

Iris is the bravest girl at the vet, always so happy to come in and say hi! 💕

🐱Meet Goose, a lovable rescue domestic medium haired cat! While Goose may not tolerate other animals well, he does have his favourite humans! He'll happily climb all over you, headbutting your face and demanding forehead kisses. 💗

Part of Goose's daily routine includes trying to trip his mother over by running around her legs when she's in the kitchen! When he doesn't get what he wants, he likes to pretend to eat cardboard and rocks, just to stress his mum out! 📦

He loves to interrupt his mum for constant cuddles and will happily sit in a bag to be carried around the house. 🛍

🐾 FRIDAY FEATURE 🐾

💗🐑Savannah is a very opinionated, 12 year old Australian shepherd. Spending her youth growing up on a sheep station in the outback, she was too busy being the resident diva to care about working!

🌅Now living on the island, she loves her long beach walks, being the boss, micromanaging her family, and has quite the passion for chicken nuggets! Savannah will absolutely let you know when she wants a walk, attention or simply if it's dinner time, by giving a swift bark.

🏥Savannah recently injured her cruciate ligament in her leg, requiring surgery to stabilise it again. She has made a full recovery and is back to her sassy self, delivery her infamous side eye!
