Adoptions
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.

SPONSOR OUR SANCTUARY CATS
Why we need your help
Sanctuary cats are rescues that are often abandoned or have been born in an environment without human contact, they are very timid and some are very afraid of people. Some will eventually trust enough to accept pats from people they know, but generally these cats will not be adoptable due to their extreme shyness. We need your help to continue provide regular veterinary health checks/vaccinations, food, litter other supplies as we don’t receive any funding and rely solely on donations.
What can you do to help?
From just $20 a month, you can sponsor one of our beautiful Sanctuary Cats!
You will receive an email every three months with an update on your cat and some lovely new photos.
