Lexi

Lexi

Domestic Short Hair - female - 10 months and 4 weeks

The Tiny Household Manager

While Lexi began her journey as a cautious soul, she has officially become an active and vocal household supervisor. She is a slow-burn girl who takes time to trust, but once you’re in her inner circle, you’ll realize she is full of personality and isn't afraid to tell you when you’ve misunderstood the assignment.

Why We Love Lexi:

  • The Are You Dumb Look: If she wants to play and you offer pats instead, she will gently slap your hand away, walk to her toy, and stare at you until you get it right.
  • The Morning Briefing: Every morning, she demands chin scratches and pats after breakfast
  • The Mother Hen: She has a favourite automatic ball that she chases, and then sits on it like an egg to keep it safe.
  • Netflix & Snuggle: When you settle on the lounge, Lexi will jump up and nudge your legs into her preferred nap position.
  • Playful Heart: She is a comical whirlwind of zoomies and pounces and loves hunting felt balls. (which she proudly carries around in her mouth)

Her Ideal Home:
Lexi would do best in a calm home without small children. A family with the compassion and patience to let her continue opening up at her own pace. Once she knows you are her safe person, she is incredibly rewarding.

If you are looking for a quirky companion who will reward you with specific leg positioning requests and morning purrs, Lexi is waiting for you.

The $225 adoption fee includes:

  • Microchipping
  • Worming/flea-treatment
  • Vaccination
  • Desexing

Lexi must also be an INDOOR ONLY cat.
Please use the "Send enquiry email" link below, if you have any questions or if you are interested in adopting.

Aurora

Aurora

Domestic short hair - female - 3 years and 7 months

Meet Aurora 🐾

Age: 3 years | Gender: Female | Location: Horsfield Bay

Aurora is a sweet, affectionate girl who just needs a little time to feel safe. She is naturally shy and will likely hide at first while she learns her new surroundings, but with patience and kindness she blossoms into a very smoochy, loyal companion who enjoys gentle pats and quiet company.

Aurora came into care after being found on the street heavily pregnant. Although she was microchipped, her previous owner chose not to collect her because she was pregnant. Two days later she gave birth to five healthy kittens. She was a wonderful mum and all of her babies have now found loving homes — now it is Aurora’s turn.

Once comfortable, Aurora becomes playful and enjoys climbing cat trees and playing with balls and feather toys. She has a calm nature and a very light tread around the home.

She is fully litter-trained (pellets or sand) and has never had an accident. She eats wet and dry food (dry preferred) and loves drinking from a cat fountain. She has been an indoor cat in DCH care but could be an indoor/outdoor cat once settled.

Aurora would suit a quiet home with a single person or couple, ideally without young children (loud noises startle her).

Healthy and gentle, Aurora is ready for a peaceful forever home.

Please enquire to meet Aurora. 🐾

Aurora has been in foster care since 13 September 2025, for 8 months

Pepper

Pepper

Domestic Shorthair - female - 1 year and 3 months

Pepper is a young mum who has already survived more than most cats her age should ever have to. Rescued off the street shortly after giving birth, she has worked hard to keep her babies safe and is only now beginning to learn what it means to relax and trust. She’s a quiet, observant girl who prefers to keep a bit of distance while she figures out her surroundings.
She is very wary of humans and careful about who she allows into her space. Pepper needs someone who understands that trust is earned slowly, through patience, consistency, and respect for her boundaries. She’s not a cat who will rush into affection, but one who will build a bond over time.
Pepper spends much of her day watching from safe spots, taking in the world with thoughtful eyes. She may approach for gentle interaction when she feels secure, but she will always appreciate having quiet retreats where she can decompress. Pepper would be well suited to an experienced cat owner who can read subtle body language and offer a calm, predictable environment to help her thrive.

Pepper is vaccinated, desexed, microchipped, and is fully litter trained. Pepper will need two litter trays to herself. She is now ready for adoption to an indoor only home.

Pepper has been in foster care since 07 January 2026, for 4 months

Willow

Domestic - female - 5 months and 3 weeks

Meet Willow – A Special Little Survivor with a Big Heart 🐾

Willow is a stunning tortoiseshell kitten with a bright personality and an even brighter spirit. She was originally found abandoned on a property with her two siblings, where a kind homeowner cared for them for several weeks before they were surrendered into care to find loving forever homes.

Now safe and thriving, Willow is ready to find a family to call her own.

Willow is a friendly, affectionate kitten who absolutely loves attention. She enjoys being around people and is always happy to soak up pats, cuddles, and companionship. Her confident and social nature makes her a joy to have around.

She doesn’t let anything slow her down and approaches life with resilience and determination. Her condition does not stop her from playing, exploring, and enjoying life just like any other kitten.

She would thrive in a loving indoor home where she can feel safe and continue to receive the care and attention she deserves.

Greyson

Greyson

DSH - male - 2 months and 4 weeks

Meet Greyson, a stunning grey/blue Domestic Shorthair kitten with a gentle nature and a playful spirit.

Greyson absolutely loves playtime, especially chasing teaser toys around the room and showing off his energetic kitten zoomies. Once he has finished playing, he is more than happy to curl up nearby and reward you with his sweet company.

Steve

Steve

Domestic medium hair - male - 2 months and 2 weeks

Steve is a handsome young male kitten with a big personality and an even bigger sense of adventure.

Steve’s story began when his brave tabby mama cat broke into a kind stranger’s backyard to give birth to her three kittens safely out of the cold. The family cared for the little trio until they were old enough to be surrendered into rescue care. It’s suspected that Steve’s father may have been a Maine Coon cat who was frequently visiting mama cat at the time — and Steve certainly inherited the confidence and playful spirit to match (and big feet).

Confident, curious, and full of playful energy, Steve loves exploring his surroundings and turning everyday moments into fun. Whether he’s scooting up cat trees, chasing balls, pouncing on feathers, or wrestling with snake toys, Steve is always ready for his next little adventure.

While he is sweet and affectionate with his hooman family, Steve’s favourite way to bond is through playtime and companionship. He is incredibly friendly and fearless — kids, cars, doorbells, vacuum cleaners… nothing seems to faze this confident little boy.

Steve is litter-trained, respectful indoors, and has excellent manners around clothes, shoes, and furniture. He happily eats both wet and dry kitten food and has settled beautifully into foster care. He is also a perfectly healthy kitten who has never experienced any health issues while in care. He is quiet, rarely meowing unless he is in a pet carrier (he prefers to to be out and about).

One of Steve’s loveliest qualities is how social he is with other cats. He quickly makes friends with resident cats and loves curling up beside them when it’s time to sleep. Because of this, he may especially enjoy a home with another friendly feline companion.

Steve would suit a variety of households looking for a playful, confident, and loving kitten who brings joy and entertainment wherever he goes.

If you’re looking for a brave little explorer with a gentle heart, Steve could be your perfect match.

Steve has been in foster care since 24 April 2026, for 3 weeks

Nala

Nala

Domestic short hair - female - 2 months and 2 weeks

Nala is a sweet and affectionate female kitten looking for her forever home.

Nala’s story began when her brave tabby mama cat broke into a kind stranger’s backyard to give birth to her three kittens safely out of the cold. The family cared for the little trio until they were old enough to be surrendered into rescue care. It’s suspected that Nala’s father may have been a Maine Coon cat who was frequently visiting mama cat at the time — and Nala certainly has the playful curiosity and fluffy charm to match.

Nala is a true cuddler who absolutely adores snuggling with her hooman family. When she’s not curled up in your lap, you’ll usually find her racing up a cat tree, chasing balls, pouncing on soft toys, or batting at feathers and anything that moves quickly. She also has an adorable habit of gently patting your back for attention if you’re sitting down.

Despite her playful side, Nala is very respectful indoors. She is litter-trained, eats both wet and dry kitten food, drinks happily from a cat water fountain, and has been perfectly healthy throughout her time in care with no health concerns at all.

Nala is generally a quiet little girl, only softly meowing when she’s in a pet carrier. She sleeps deeply and loves curling up in laps, cat baskets, or cosy cat cubbies.

With her gentle temperament and low-maintenance nature, Nala would suit a single person, couple, or family household alike. She is the perfect mix of affectionate companion and playful kitten energy.

If you’re looking for a loving little shadow to brighten your home, Nala may be the perfect addition to your family.

Nala has been in foster care since 24 April 2026, for 3 weeks
