Local help for animal lovers

FOR decades, animal educator and author Majella Gee has quietly helped pet owners and wildlife carers navigate the sometimes confusing, often emotional world of animal care.
Now, she’s bringing her experience and insight back to the public eye – this time with a stronger focus on education, prevention, and practical support.
From owning pet stores and writing for local publications in the ‘90s, to years spent as a hands-on wildlife carer, Majella’s journey has always revolved around one thing: doing what’s right for the animals.
Her newly relaunched platform, www.majellaspetstore.com, offers free 20-minute consultations as well as longer, in-depth sessions for owners facing behavioural issues, breed selection questions, or uncertainty around diet and care.
Her mission? To reduce the number of animals ending up in shelters – simply by educating people before problems begin.
Majella’s two published books, ‘So, You Want to Get a Dog?’ and ‘What’s Really in Your Dog’s Bowl?’, strip away marketing noise and industry jargon, helping everyday people make informed choices from day one. Her blog continues that mission, with easy-to-understand guidance on everything from pet nutrition to choosing the right vet. “Most people want to do the right thing. They just need clear information they can trust,” says Majella. “Education empowers people – and when people feel confident, animals thrive.”
Whether you’re a first-time pet owner or someone looking for answers beyond the usual advice, Majella offers support that’s honest, balanced, and built on a lifetime of real experience.
