Meet Maggie 🩷

Come in and see Maggie anytime during opening hours at Petstock Currumbin 😻

If you're looking for a calm, loving companion who will happily spend her days relaxing by your side, Maggie might just be your perfect match.

This beautiful girl has the sweetest nature. Her absolute favourite thing in the world is receiving head scratches, and she'll gently head bunt your hand whenever she thinks it's time for more (which, according to Maggie, is often!). She's an incredibly affectionate cat with a loud happy purr - and if she's especially content, she even drools a little from pure happiness.

Maggie is mostly a relaxed, easy-going girl who enjoys a peaceful lifestyle, although she still has the occasional burst of playful energy that reminds you she's young at heart. Whether she's chasing a toy for a few minutes or curling up nearby for a nap, she's simply happiest being close to her people.🥰

Maggie would thrive in a quiet home where she can enjoy all the love and attention she deserves. She'd be perfectly happy as the only cat, soaking up every head scratch for herself. However, she has successfully lived with other cats before and is able to coexist well with a respectful feline companion—she simply isn't interested in being best friends or engaging in lots of play together.

Because she enjoys a calm environment, Maggie would be best suited to a home without very young children, or with older, cat-savvy children who understand and respect feline boundaries.

💔 Maggie still desperately needs our help. 💔

Maggie showed some improvement overnight, but heartbreakingly, she suffered another seizure this morning. Thankfully, she was able to stabilise again this afternoon.

Tomorrow, she will undergo further blood testing, and a CT scan may also be needed. There are concerns about several serious underlying conditions, and we still have a long road ahead to find answers and work out the best way to help her.

Maggie is still just a baby at only five months old. Despite everything her little body is going through, she remains so incredibly sweet. She has already been through so much, and it’s heartbreaking to think of how frightening and confusing this must all be for her.

She deserves the chance to grow up, to play, to be loved and to experience all the wonderful things life should have in store for a puppy. ❤️

We are doing everything we can for Maggie, but she still needs your help. Donations towards her ongoing investigations, treatment and hospital care would mean so much and help us give this precious girl the best possible chance.

Please help us give Maggie the second chance she deserves. Every donation, share and kind message makes a difference. 🐾❤️

Thank you for standing beside Maggie as we continue to fight for her.

Honey 🍯

I may be very shy at first, but give me a bit of time for me to gain your trust and I'll soon be headbutting your hand and politely requesting chin scratches. Also I am fond of firm back scratches and have been told I have a strong purr engine.

For most of my life I have been a solo cat and I prefer the company of humans to other felines. I am very good at entertaining myself by sleeping all day then requesting food and attention at night. I would be best suited as a single cat household but I am totally fine to be left at home alone if you work away during the day.

Apart from sleep, food is my next favourite thing and when I get excited my tail does a little excited quiver. If you lose track of dinner time I will meow to remind you.🍖

Loud noises are a bit scary or too many new people, so I would prefer a quieter house. And I am not too fond of change so please be patient with me as I adapt.

Reach out if you want to meet sweet Honey, or even a first virtual meeting to gain a sense of her personality. 🐝

🚨 URGENT HELP NEEDED FOR MAGGIE 🚨

Meet Maggie, a beautiful five-month-old puppy who urgently needs our help. 💔

Maggie presented to one of our partner veterinary clinics tonight struggling to walk properly, and on arrival, she suffered multiple seizures. Following veterinary assessment, it is suspected that Maggie has ingested something toxic.

Maggie has now been surrendered into our care, and we are doing everything we can to give this little girl the best chance at recovery. ❤️‍🩹

She urgently needs comprehensive blood testing to assess the damage and guide her treatment. Depending on her results, she will require further medications and potentially ongoing after-hours veterinary care.

At just five months old, Maggie should be enjoying puppy life, learning about the world and growing up surrounded by love. Instead, she is facing a frightening and uncertain time, and we are desperately hoping she can pull through.

Emergency veterinary treatment, blood tests, medications and after-hours monitoring all come at a significant cost. Any donation, no matter how small, will help us cover Maggie’s urgent medical expenses and give her the best possible chance.

If you are unable to donate, please consider sharing Maggie’s story. Every share helps us reach more people who may be able to help.

Please keep this precious girl in your thoughts. She has a long road ahead, and we desperately want to see her get the chance at life every puppy deserves. ❤️

Thank you for always standing beside us and the animals who need us most.

🐭 Meet Mini Mouse

She may be small, but Mini Mouse certainly doesn’t let that stop her! She loves making the most of every day and is an active, playful little girl who is always ready for her next adventure. Curious by nature, she loves exploring and getting involved in whatever is happening around her — which probably explains how this tiny adventurer ended up being found hiding underneath someone’s car as a kitten! 🥹❤️

Mini Mouse has a wonderfully quirky personality and will keep you entertained with her antics. She can be extremely shy when meeting new people, so she needs a patient family who will give her the time and space to build her confidence.

But once Mini Mouse decides you’re her person, you’ll discover a very different side to this little girl. 🥰 She loves being part of whatever you’re doing and, when the day winds down, she’s more than happy to snuggle up beside you and watch TV.

She is currently in foster care with both cats and dogs of various sizes, so she is used to having furry friends around.

Mini Mouse might need a little time to let you see her true personality, but once she does, she’ll win you over in no time. 💕🐾

Meet Macadamia, affectionately known as Mac 🐾

Mac is a gorgeous Maremma x Stumpy-Tail Cattle Dog mix, and as you can probably imagine from that combination, he’s a wonderful dog with a big personality and a few quirks of his own!

Mac is neutral when meeting new people out & about, but if you are apart of his family, he absolutely loves you. ❤️ He gets along wonderfully with children and loves being included in family life.

Mac is BALL OBSESSED! If there’s a ball involved, you’ve definitely found the way to his heart. He enjoys doing things on his own terms, and while his recall isn’t his strongest skill, throw a ball and suddenly he’s very interested in what you have to say! 😂

For this reason, we recommend Mac isn’t let off leash in unfenced public spaces, as he may decide to head off on his own little adventure. His leash skills are generally good, and he isn’t reactive to other dogs while on lead.

Mac enjoys spending time with his doggy friends, but he is also perfectly happy as an only dog, provided he is included as part of the family. He doesn’t suffer from separation anxiety and is happy to be home alone, but when you’re home, he would much rather be involved in whatever you’re doing including plenty of relaxing together. He is completely toilet trained & past the chewing puppy stage as well

Mac has previously lived with chickens. However, since returning to foster care, he has shown that he is not suitable to live with cats or pocket pets, as he enjoys chasing them.

Mac is a lovely, quirky boy who will thrive with a family who understands his personality, appreciates his independent streak and is happy to include him in their everyday life. ❤️

Mac’s ideal home:
🐾 A family who will include him as part of the family
🐾 Children are welcome
🐾 Happy as an only dog or with a suitable canine companion
🐾 Securely fenced property
🐾 Someone who understands that off-leash adventures aren’t for Mac
🐾 No cats or pocket pets
And, most importantly… someone prepared to throw A LOT of balls!

Meet Skyla, this little ray of sunshine! ☀️

This happy and confident tabby girl is young at heart and ready to find her forever family!

She’s a curious little explorer who loves checking out everything her world has to offer, but when she’s finished investigating, she’s always first in line for cuddles, especially with her fellow feline friends. She’s also not shy about letting you know when dinner is on the way… this girl has found her voice and she’s not afraid to use it! 📣

She’s a social, affectionate kitten who gets along well with cats and kids. She hasn’t met many dogs yet, so her feelings about canine companions are still a little unknown.

With her bright personality, confidence and love of cuddles, this sweet girl is sure to bring plenty of sunshine, purrs and personality to her new home. 💛

SOUTH EAST QLD & NORTHERN NSW FOSTER CARERS NEEDED 📣

Could you open your home to a pet who needs a safe place to land?

Happy Tails Animal Rescue is looking for foster carers (now and always) to help give dogs and cats the love, care and stability they need while they wait for their forever home. ❤️

Fostering can be incredibly rewarding. You get to make a huge difference in an animal’s life, help them feel safe and loved, and play a special part in their journey to finding their family.

If you’re in South East QLD or Northern NSW and think you could become a foster carer, we’d love to hear from you.

👉 Apply to foster here: happytailsrescue.com.au/foster/apply-to-foster/

Your place or backyard, and a little bit of love could change a life. ❤️

Meet Humphrey 💗

Every now and then, a very special little soul comes along who makes you question if you can really let this one go after fostering and if you should just keep him yourself.

Humphrey is a gorgeous little Manx boy who will wholeheartedly win you over in no time. He is the sweetest, most affectionate little man and simply loves being close to his human. He will place his little paw on your face or give your nose a gentle lick. 🥹

When Humphrey looks at you, there is nothing but pure adoration in his eyes. He loves to jump up, throw himself onto his side or back and patiently wait for his tummy rubs, all while his tiny purr motor is running at full speed.

He is also incredibly clever! Humphrey was the fastest kitten to learn how to use the cat flap to get out into the catio. Smart and handsome… what more could you want? 😻

Humphrey can be a little shy when meeting people he doesn’t know, but we are sure once he feels comfortable, his beautiful personality shines through. He is used to living in a busy foster home with many cats and kittens, as well as both large and small dogs, so he is very well socialised with other animals.

Humphrey is one of those very special kittens. The kind that leaves a paw print on your heart long after they’ve found their forever home. Now we just need to find the very special person who deserves him. 🥹❤️ 🐾
