I was recommended to Dr Macdonald by a friend and I would recommend her to anyone else too. She is an older GP who doesn't rush to prescribe antibiotics and has an open mind to alternative therapies. She does take you seriously and orders appropriate tests where necessary.

I have bought several Snooza products through my local vet clinic and without fail my cats love them! The pet beds are better quality than others, fully washable and always approved by my cats. Each pet bed is made to order and you can choose the size and fabric and they come with a free repair service. You can become a member of their email list and hear about Factory Direct Sales and buy cheaper (seconds) products direct from the warehouse (if you live in Melbourne). I would recommend Snooza products to any cat or dog owner - you and your pet will love them!

My cats normally live indoors and are fed the very best food. I don't want any less for them when in boarding and I have found Cottage Kennels and Cattery to be very good. They have a special heated cattery for indoor cats, always feed the food I provide and are happy for me to bring my cats' own bedding from home. Their prices are very reasonable and have on several occasions charged me less than they could have (e.g. if you arrive later than the usual check-out time). On one occasion they didn't charge me at all for one day's emergency boarding. I feel quite comfortable leaving my kitties there.

Approximate cost: $14-15/day per cat

Unfortunately this business has been bought by new owners recently. The staff have all changed, now mostly consisting of young seemingly inexperienced staff. The food quality has deteriorated (soggy undercooked Poffertjes) and the service is not as good (girls often chatting together behind the counter while tables are uncleared and slow service).
Unfortunately they don't sell my favourite apricot toast any more either. : (

Lovely coffee, comfortable seating, rewarding loyalty card program and you get pretty heart shapes on the top of your coffee on Valentines Day! The coffee is very consistent, the poffertjes (Dutch Pancakes) are delectable and they have really nice Apricot Loaf toast for breakfast. My favourite coffee place for sure!

The staff are really friendly and take an interest in you as a person rather than a "customer". They ask the right questions to make sure that you buy the correct over the counter medication (unlike some discount chemist places where the staff don't have the time or training to do so).

I enjoy shopping at Sculli Brothers because the produce is always top quality - no pulpy peaches, bruised apples or wilted snow peas. You don't have to wait at the check-outs or deal with "wrong prices" like at the supermarkets. They have lots of variety and the more exotic fruit/veg when in season. And Sculli Brothers is owned & run by a family (as the name suggests) who take pride in their business.
