We currently have another two Tiny Tigers (both female) available at the Veterinary Centre Waimate by the Big Blue Cross to go to their 'furever' homes.

These kittens have been de-sexed, microchipped, vaccinated, and had a flea and worm treatment applied. We will also give you a starter pack which has everything your new kitten needs to settle into their new home. All this for the great value of just $169.

Please call the Veterinary Centre if you are interested in providing a home for one of our Tiny tigers.

Transport of kittens from Waimate to Oamaru or Timaru available.

An obedient dog is a much more pleasurable experience for owners and people the dog comes in contact with than an uncontrollable dog. Just being able to give the command to SIT, WAIT and HEEL is essential. And your puppy enjoys knowing it's boundaries as well.

𝗣𝗨𝗣𝗣𝗬 𝗣𝗥𝗘-𝗦𝗖𝗛𝗢𝗢𝗟 𝗖𝗟𝗔𝗦𝗦𝗘𝗦 – We are running four Puppy Pre-School Classes each month in Oamaru, Timaru and Waimate. This is a great opportunity to socialise your new puppy, as well as starting their training. Enrolments are essential and we try to limit numbers to 8 puppies (each 4 week class), so if you'd like to enrol your puppy then contact your local Veterinary Centre by the Big Blue Cross.

OAMARU - Starts first Tuesday of the month at 5.45pm
311 Thames Street, Oamaru - Phone 03 434 5666

TIMARU - Starts first Wednesday of the month at 5.45pm
18 Sefton Street, Timaru - 03 684 5666

WAIMATE - Starts first Thursday of the Month at 5.30pm
128 high Street, Waimate - 03 689 7213

𝗥𝗲𝗾𝘂𝗶𝗿𝗲𝗺𝗲𝗻𝘁𝘀
* Puppy needs to be vaccinated for Parvo and Kennel Cough
* Aged between 8-12 weeks is ideal ... although smaller breeds can be older. We just want to ensure that puppies are a similar size to avoid any rough and tumble injuries.
* Cost $89.90 Incl GST
