Bunnings sausage sizzle

And another Bunnings Sausage Sizzle for Alley Cat Rescue Team is done and dusted - what a day! Patronage was outstanding and the Christmas raffle received positive comments and strong support.

A huge thank you to anyone and everyone who contributed to the day. A big shout out to the volunteer who loaned us the decorated and full trailer and delivered the prize ; to those who helped out at the sausage sizzle, including those who braved a 7:00am start to set up and then cashiered ; to those who stayed for the duration despite being half frozen by the chilly wind ; and to those who came in at short notice and filled an unexpected gap in the roster! The team support is much appreciated and without you all we could not continue doing what we do.

Of course we must thank Bunnings for allowing us to participate in this event, and all the wonderful businesses who supported Alley Cat Rescue with either physical donations or vouchers. A heartfelt thank you from all our cats, kittens and the entire Alley Cat Rescue Team.

Smiles All Round

On 10th September, two of our team members visited the Day Club at Hawthorn House—bringing along our newest litter of lively, seven-week-old kittens. After a brief intro about ACRT’s mission and milestones, we let the kittens loose… and they wasted no time turning the room into a playground of purrs and paws.

Clients lit up with joy as they cuddled the wriggly furballs, while staff and volunteers couldn’t stop with the “oohs,” “ahhs,” and “I want one!” To reassure the former farmers in the room, we shared how ACRT cats are trained to live in harmony with local wildlife.

One kitten hadn’t been named yet, sparking a fun challenge to find a cosmic or solar-inspired name. The winning suggestion? “Moonee.”

We also delivered a colourful donation bin, now stationed outside Hawthorn House’s main building for the next 3–4 weeks. After their big day out, the kittens were tuckered out—and we suspect the humans were too!
