Queen is an affectionate, opinionated, three-year-old cat.

Whangarei SPCA always has lots of animals in need of new homes. Our Tip of the Week explains how to keep rabbits and guinea pigs cool in the warmer weather and introduces you to a lovely cat looking for a home.

She's an affectionate, opinionated, de-sexed, three-year-old cat.

She would be suited to a home with older children and without other cats.
