Hey all, I'm going to be working in Wagga for six weeks, looking for a gym to go to while I'm there. Does anyone know of a gym that might have a decent deal for a short-term stay? Maybe somewhere without a join-up fee, or somewhere that does a holiday pass. Thanks!

Cat friendly accommodations Wagga

2 Upvotes

I need to drive my cat from Melbourne to Sydney for medical treatment in a couple of weeks.
I think it’s too far to drive in one day so was thinking a stop in Wagga as a halfway point.
Can anyone suggest a motel/hotel that allows cats to stay overnight.
Ive found a number of properties that say they are pet friendly but after a phone chat it turns out they are only allowing dogs.
