About Mel
Cat Cuddles Melbourne was created by Mel, a professional pet-care specialist with 14 years of experience caring for thousands of cats and dogs across Queensland and New South Wales.

Mel has spent years:

Giving safe haven to seniors and “unadoptables”
She has a special soft spot for elderly cats, anxious cats, and those who need extra time, patience, and understanding.
