🧡🐧 MEET PINGU 🐧🧡
Hello everyone, I’m Pingu and I am looking for a loving, sunny and cozy home to move into. I’ve been living on the streets my whole life, but I’ve quickly got used to being spoiled since being in my foster home and I never want to go back to the streets again... a life indoors is a good life!
When I came into foster care, I was looking a little worse for wear - I had fighting wounds on my face and ear, both of which are still healing. I was very, very brave and wanted to make friends but because I was scared I wasn’t cleaning myself very well. I am still a little yellow on my feet, but I clean myself all the time now! I even let my foster mums give me baths because I am a patient and kind boy.
I had to learn how to look after myself when I was living on the street, so I am very smart. My foster mums caught me looking in the bins and scratching the carpet when I first moved in, but I’m such a fast learner that I’ve since learned not to jump on counters and I’m learning to use my scratching post, woohoo!
Although I’m a big old tomcat, I have irresistibly charming eyes and a super sweet voice. My foster mums were surprised to hear that I was once a street cat because I am a HUUUGE softie and act like I’ve been a pet my whole life. I am a chatterbox and I’m always meowing softly. I’m a great conversationalist and if you talk to me, I’ll even respond!
I haven’t lived with children or other pets before, but my foster mums think I would do well in a home with kids because I am very gentle and easy going. I didn’t mind seeing the other animals at the pound and at the vet, so with a slow introduction I may be suited to a cat-savvy pooch, but I will need a nice slow introduction to make sure we get along from the get go. I would need to be the only kitty in the home however.
I’m an older boy so I’m not too interested in playing with toys, however I love food so much that I may like food-based toys or a treat treasure hunt. I much prefer company to playing, and am at my happiest when sitting or sleeping close to you.
I promise I am a good boy – I let my foster mums pick me up, I drink my water well and use my litter tray very neatly too! Could I be the purr-fect match for you?

3924 – Pingu
Gender: Male
Breed: Domestic Short Hair
Colour: Black and White
DOB: 12/04/2015
Adoption Fee: $50 July Special
*Pingu’s adoption fee includes vet check, sterilisation, vaccination, microchip, flea and worm treatment.
Medical Notes: Pingu has Feline Immunodeficiency Virus (FIV) which is a virus that can affect his immune system, however, he can still potentially live a long healthy life. FIV is transmitted through deep bite wounds. Due to his FIV Pingu will need to be an indoor only cat. Pingu does not get along with other cats so must go to a home with no other cats.
Pingu has been diagnosed with a grade 3/4 heart murmur (an abnormal sound in the heart). Heart murmurs are graded between 1 and 6 with 6 being the worst. Pingu’s murmur currently is not causing issues and he is not symptomatic so does not require treatment. Heart murmurs can worsen with time so Pingu will need to have his heart murmur checked at his annual health check.
🐾 Perth Rescue Angels recommends Advantage and Advocate from Elanco Animal Health for all your new furry family members' flea and worming needs.
