Dog of the week: Kyah

Meet Kyah!

This five-year-old staffy cross is a playful and energetic canine.

With her spirited disposition and a heart full of affection, Kyah is ready to embark on new adventures with a loving family.

Whether it’s a game of fetch in the park or a leisurely walk around the neighbourhood, Kyah is always eager to be by your side, showing off her leash-trained prance that makes every outing a delight.

Kyah has no aggression toward animals or people.

She gets along beautifully with large dogs and may enjoy playdates with potential new furry friends once introduced properly.

Her affectionate nature means she has heaps of love and kisses to share with her family.

While she is still learning to respond to commands, Kyah possesses a great personality that ensures every moment spent with her is full of fun and laughter.

Gentle and eager to please, Kyah does have some anxious tendencies.

She’s looking for a family patient and committed to helping her with training sessions, including toilet training.

Regular bonding sessions will ensure her confidence continues to grow.

Kyah is ready to shower her new family with love and loyalty.

If you’re looking for a companion with boundless energy and a heart full of affection, Kyah is waiting to meet you!

Cat of the week: Twix

Meet Twix!

This one-year-old domestic short hair boy is as sweet as his namesake.

A social butterfly who thrives on companionship and affection, Twix charms his way into the heart of everyone he meets.

Twix has been living happily in foster care since early April, sharing his space with another male cat.

He’s proven to enjoy feline company as much as he enjoys human attention.

A versatile friend, Twix seamlessly adapts to new environments, spreading joy wherever he goes with his gentle nature.

Twix is a great cat and would make an amazing addition to any home.
