This weeks' winning Awesome Service Award is from Slyvia Jennings who nominated vet Steve Mirams from VetCare Grey Lynn. "My cat had been diagnosed with growths that needed a life-saving operation at a cost which I couldn't afford and I had to make the heart-wrenching decision to put her to sleep.

When I arrived with my cat, Squeaker, for her final journey on that horrible dark stormy day, Steve offered to bear the majority of the cost of the operation kindly saying that he was confident he could give this puss quality of life.

So Squeaker the puss has a true Guardian Angel who has given her a true new lease of life.

I am so grateful and couldn't believe that there are still some really lovely professionals in the world that have true passion for their work and are not just out to make a big buck.

A very big thank you to Squeakers Guardian Angel Steve, and the team at VetCare Grey Lynn."

Congratulations to Steve Mirams of VetCare Grey Lynn: A worthy winner of an ASB Awesome Service Award.
