A HUUUGEE thankyou to everyone who shared, liked, commented, and or came in to help! 😁🙌👏

What a community! We were saved!!

We do still have a small chest freezer full of meat that was not affected at all ( this is @ full price) if you're needing any for your pets. 😇

Please also note, we are still without a Proper shop freezer, we hope to be back to normal stock levels ASAP!

Cheers, Pet Essenitals Porirua Team
