HOW ADOPTIONS WORK

All of our cats are:

• desexed
• microchipped
• had their initial vaccination
• wormed and flea treated.

We do a 21 day trial period with every adoption, so if it does not work out we will require that the Cat or Kitten is returned to us and you will receive the adoption fee refunded – minus a $50 admnin fee.

You can check our cats for adoption below and on our Facebook Page. There are delays with uploading our cats – this means cats shown here might already be adopted or cats that have become available are not shown here.

Once you’ve spotted your potential fur-ever friend, send us a Facebook message.

We will get back to you (usually within one or two days) and discuss next steps.

About Riley

R I L E Y
From Rileys’ foster mum: “Riley has come a long way from the frightened, skittish kitten who first came home with us. He has gained the confidence to seek affection and loves cuddle time in bed. Although he is hesitant to be picked up most of the time and tends to be wary when we are standing, we can see that he will become more comfortable as he continues to grow in confidence. We have found that approaching him slowly and allowing him the choice to come to us works best. He is a gorgeous boy with the softest, silkiest, floofy fur—like velvet to the touch. When he feels comfortable in his environment, he enjoys chasing balls and playing with toys. He is very quiet but makes an adorable squeaky sound”.

• Desexed • Microchipped • Vaccinated • Age: 5 months (Aug 25) • Sex: Male • Colour: Black medium hair

Suitable for

Riley enjoys the company of other cats and is accustomed to being around an older Labrador. Being a more timid cat, he would thrive in a quieter home, especially with older children, whether or not there are other cats present. Riley would do best if he starts in a smaller area and is gradually introduced to the house and its occupants. With some patience, you will be greatly rewarded. He will make a wonderful addition to your family.

About Kiki & Agate

Kiki and Agate are a special little duo in need of a quiet home with someone happy to be patient, allowing them to come out of their shells. Once they do, they are absolutely hilarious and have highly entertaining personalities. Kiki is very confident and relaxed around the home and will do anything, without exaggeration, for food . She spends 22 hours a day on the comfiest bed available, but will find you at exactly 1 minute to food time to squawk your reminder. A piece of string, a heater, and a treat and she’s all yours. Agate is a teeny tiny little dot who comes across as the shyer of the 2 but loves a good smooch – so much that she throws herself shoulder first to the ground and rolls around for belly rubs. Unlike Kiki she is also a bit of a Prima Donna and eats like a bird so does need feeding separately or Kiki will steal it.

• Age – Both 1yo (AUG 25) • Sex – Both female • Colour – Both Black & White • Desexed • Microchipped • Vaccinated

Suitable for

They are a very self-contained and well-suited to most homes/ families but perhaps not small children. They have lived with other cats, older children, and a small dog that Kiki is still constantly surprised is an actual real thing. Agate would love access to a safe outdoor enclosure but she has been fine indoors for her time with us. These two are not sisters, but have been together for quite some time and get along really well, so we are looking for a home for them together.

Adoption Details

They are located in foster care in the South. Please contact us now if you would like to meet them.

About Checkers & Xena

Just look at these two adorable tabbies!!! Checkers and Xena are the best of friends and are looking for a forever home together Checkers is such a character! To say he’s a fan favourite amongst the volunteers would be an understatement He’s always happy to have a chat and seems to be one of those cats that really enjoys interacting with humans, and whilst we’re very confident that he’s never been in a home, he’s such a chill boy, we’re sure he will settle in beautifully quite quickly. Xena is very attached to Checkers, and they are generally curled up in bed together, often grooming each other

Checkers is 1 yo (JUL 25) Xena is 3 yo (JUL 25). Both are desexed, microchipped and vaccinated.

Suitable for

Xena is happy to be around humans and we can sneak some pats in whilst she’s eating, but she would benefit from some one on one time to get her more comfortable being a house cat, so we will need their future family to be understanding of this and give her time to settle in.

About Huey & Dewey

Their stats!! Age: 7 months. Sex: Both males. Colour: Tabby. From their amazing foster mum: “These boys have come such a long way since I started fostering them fresh out of a skip bin They have gone from being tiny, skinny, terrified kittens to big and chunky cattins” Their sisters have found the best forever homes, so now hopefully it is their turn They are best friends, they play together, sleep together, talk to each other in some strange cat language and they get into mischief together So they would really love a home together! Double the love

Suitable for

These boys are very nervous to meet new people, but once they realise you aren’t going to hurt them, they will come out of their hiding spot to check you out, especially if you have food…any food They aren’t big fans of being picked up, but if you are bringing food for them, short cuddles are accepted and they will come to you to sit and snuggle As much as they dislike being picked up, they’ve never scratched anyone and are very gentle and would be good with older children. Although nervous at first, it wasn’t long before they made very good friends with both of their foster family dogs so we’re sure they wouldn’t mind a home with friendly dogs or cats. They are such beautiful sweet boys and they really deserve the best home ever!”

Adoption Details

The boys are located in foster care in the South. Please contact us now if you would like to meet them.

About Alfie

Meet Alfie – The Sweet & Sassy Sidekick!

Alfie is a charming little shadow who loves to follow his humans around, soaking up pats and purring like a motor. But don’t be fooled—this independent boy enjoys his space too and isn’t afraid to show his moody side! He’s the perfect companion for a working couple, as he’s content to lounge around during the day and comes alive for playtime every afternoon. At night, he loves to curl up in bed with his people, making sure they feel his warmth (and maybe claim a little extra space). Alfie is a foodie at heart—though he has refined tastes! He’s around 1-2 years old (May ’25).

Suitable for

He prefers to be the only cat in the home and isn’t suited for kids, but for the right humans, he’ll be the most loving (and slightly dramatic) little buddy.

Adoption Details

Alfie is located in foster care in the south.. Please contact us now if you would like to meet him.

“Y E L E N A”

Suitable for
