Cato and her partner Matt gave it their best this week during "Latin week" but couldn't quite cut the mustard, making the bottom two battling Shavaughan Ruakere in the final dance-off.
Social media users were quick to express their dismay and opinions on the latest dancing revelation, one saying not saving her was "a disservice to the nation".
@Suzy_Cato did such a great job on #DWTSNZ and not saving her is a disservice to our nation
Remember back in the good old days when everyone was saying how silly it was to include Suzy Cato in #DWTSNZ because she'd have so much popular support and pure skill to smash any opposition and David Seymour would just be a funny anecdote.
Jono and Ben TV show sidekick Guy Williams chimed in saying Cato being voted off was the "most crushing blow to my childhood memories" since he found out she was on the show.
Christopher Bishop, MP for Hutt South, took the opportunity to take a jab at David Seymour and Winston Peters as he expressed his dismay at Cato's departure.
"Winston Peters is PM. David Seymour beat Suzy Cato on #dwtsnz. I fear for the world's future."
Petition to have David Seymour step down and offer his place to the rightful Queen Suzy Cato? Because this is just a joke at this point. #DWTSNZ
