What an unforgettable couple of days. ❤️
We’ve had the absolute pleasure of hosting Catman Ken at the Airlie Dash house over the last few nights, and what started as a completely random encounter has turned into a friendship we’ll genuinely treasure.
We’ve had the chance to show Catman around Airlie, introduce him to some of our local community and businesses, share plenty of laughs and watch firsthand just how many people his journey has touched.
Behind the Catman name is a genuinely kind, generous and inspiring person who is doing all of this for an incredible cause — raising money for the Royal Children’s Hospital.
If you’ve enjoyed following Catman's journey, please consider getting behind him and making a donation. Every little bit helps:

For us, Airlie Dash has always been about being part of the community we live in, not just delivering food. Getting the opportunity to help Catman on a small part of his journey has been something pretty special.
Ken, it’s been an absolute pleasure. We’re proud to call you a friend for life and can’t wait to see what the future holds for you.
You’ll always have a home in Airlie Beach. ❤️

**One last thing — Bowen!** 📣
Ken is heading your way next. If anyone in Bowen has a spare room, granny flat or somewhere comfortable for Catman to stay for a night or two, please reach out. It would mean the world to see the next community give him the same warm welcome Airlie has. ❤️
**And Airlie Beach — your last chance to say farewell! 👋❤️**
Before Ken sets off tomorrow, he’ll be doing one final lap of Main Street in the morning at around 10am to say goodbye to Airlie Beach.
If you see Catman coming past, give him a wave, say hello and send him off in true Airlie style!
Safe travels, Cat. On to the next adventure. ❤️🐱🦆
