About us
Rachael and David Seymour purchased the property in 2007, Rachael whom was previously a care giver for the elderly grew up on a family farm in the Waikato. She moved north in the early 1990's. A cat lover from way back, Rachael is now the main stay behind the day to day running of Deloraine.
David, is self employed, he markets and sells real estate with LJ Hooker and is a Whangarei born and bred boy, who has spent many
years around all kinds of animals including cats also has a regular input
to the running and up keep of the property.
So how did we come to be here?
The Deloraine was the last place we inspected that day,
after looking at a number of local catteries to put our own cats while
going on holiday. We were really impressed with the setup of this cattery
and style of the whole property. As we drove out the gate we turned to
each other and said, “That would be the most fantastic
property and business to own”.
We laughed, Dreams are free.
Well......
The very next day, by some strange turn of events David heard that the owners of Deloraine were thinking of selling, so he rang them to find out.
David then phoned Rachael at work. “How badly would you like to
own the Deloraine” he asked. “Don’t joke about things
like that honey” she replied. " I'm not" David answered.
And so, the rest is history, David, Rachael, their family
and 2 cats, Coda and Biscuit, moved in.
It is our mission to continue the same friendly professional service
that has set the Deloraine cattery apart from the rest.
