*In foster care in Marrickville, Sydney* If you’ve ever wondered where the saying 'curiosity killed the cat' came from, meeting Howie will set you straight! From laundry baskets to toes to Christmas trees, this beautiful boy loves nothing better than exploring the nooks and crannies of his foster home (and carers) :) On the flip side of his personality, Howie has developed a real appreciation for life’s simple pleasures - sunny patches on the windowsill and a soft spot in bed alongside his special humans make him purr with delight. Howie is available now for meet and greets, and will be ready to take home when all his kitten vet work is complete. **We ask all people looking to adopt to fill in our adoption enquiry form at https://form.jotform.co/92940837256870. Please use this link rather than the 'Enquire' button on the pet's PetRescue profile.** MY IDEAL HOME: The best way to keep me busy and entertained is to give me lots of toys to rumble with - and another feline friend would be the cherry on top! I don't need much else aside from the usual things - love, cuddles, warm places to sleep etc etc :) MY ENERGY LEVEL: Heaps of play mixed with heaps of snoozing! MY SUITABILITY TO CHILDREN: There aren't any children in my foster home, but I love when they come to visit - especially when they play with me! MY SUITABILITY TO CATS AND DOGS: Hanging out with my brother and sister is my favourite thing in the world! I can't get enough of their companionship, so I'd be deliriously happy if you have a nice cat or two in residence :) Though I've not met any dogs yet, I'm really easy to get along with and reckon I'll be mates with your friendly pupper in no time!

*In foster care in Dulwich Hill, Sydney* With her confident, inquisitive personality and interest in people, Maggie will make a purrfect companion for any cat-loving household! A devoted young mum who is just about finished raising her kittens, she loves to rough and tumble with her babies - often instigating the play herself! She equally adores a good brush or chin scratch, and is learning to cope with her foster carer's endless demand for cuddles :) Like all Maggie's pets, Maggie is microchipped, desexed and vaccinated. **We ask all people looking to adopt to fill in our adoption enquiry form at https://form.jotform.co/92940837256870. Please use this link rather than the 'Enquire' button on the pet's PetRescue profile.** MY IDEAL HOME: well, if we're talking IDEAL, it'll be with somebody looking for a cutesome twosome, as I'd LOVE to be adopted together with my 3 month old daughter Little Buckets! (That's her on the right in the last photo.). I'm not fussy at all - most types of homes will suit me down to the ground! All I really need are some great toys, some interactive play time with you and lots of quiet time beside you on the couch. MY ENERGY LEVEL: I'm pretty laid-back for the most part, but will have a few short bursts of play and chasing throughout the day (I'm still practically a kitten, after all!) before dozing off again, or relaxing for hours in front of a sunny window. MY SUITABILITY TO CHILDREN: Fantastic, I think! I'm very tolerant, and I'm learning to play quite softly as well so kids of any age would suit. MY SUITABILITY TO CATS AND DOGS: I’m a caring and lovable girl, and would get on well with any friendly pet!

*In foster care in Randwick, Sydney* A sweet and sensitive little girl, darling Pepper doesn't take long to come out of her shell once she's comfortable in her environment! You'll adore her magical transformation into a cute and cuddly love bug :) This beautiful torti is available now for meet and greets, and will be ready to take home when all her kitten vet work is complete. **We ask all people looking to adopt to fill in our adoption enquiry form at https://form.jotform.co/92940837256870. Please use this link rather than the 'Enquire' button on the pet's PetRescue profile.** MY IDEAL HOME: ... will be quiet and peaceful, with no dogs or small children to worry me. I do love cuddles, so bring them on! MY ENERGY LEVEL: I definitely have the odd playful moment - chasing my toys down the hallway of my foster home is one of my favourite activities! - but I'm mostly pretty calm and relaxed. MY SUITABILITY TO CHILDREN: Because of my shyness, kids of primary school age or younger aren't going to be a good match for me. I might do well in a family home with teenagers who understand my needs. MY SUITABILITY TO CATS AND DOGS: I don't mind the company of friendly, low-key cats who don't get up in my face. It's very unlikely that I'll be happy living with a dog as I find them a bit too big and scary!

*In foster care in Newtown, Sydney* Mattie is a totally gorgeous calico lady, with the brightest jade-green eyes you've ever seen! Aside from the odd investigation into an interesting new smell and the occasional bout of play with her laser pointer, she loves nothing more than sitting in the window and watching the world go by. Sweet Mattie can be a little shy at first, but before you know it she'll be approaching for cuddles, running to the door every night when you arrive home and sleeping contentedly at the bottom of the bed :) Like all Maggie's pets, Mattie is microchipped, desexed and vaccinated. **We ask all people looking to adopt to fill in our adoption enquiry form at https://form.jotform.co/92940837256870. Please use this link rather than the 'Enquire' button on the pet's PetRescue profile.** MY IDEAL HOME: ... would be with a professional or retired single person or couple, where I am given enough space to explore my surroundings and sniff all the things. I'm not a lap cat, but I'm always happy to sit near you and keep you company all day long. I would love to have access to outside as I like to watch what's happening in the garden of my foster carers house! MY ENERGY LEVEL: I love to nap for hours on end - but I'm also an amazing hunter, and you'll often find me chasing shadows around the house when I get in one of my moods! MY SUITABILITY TO CHILDREN: I only like affection on my own terms, so sadly I won't be a great match for a family with primary-school aged children or younger. MY SUITABILITY TO CATS AND DOGS: I've lived with other cats in the past, so I could be compatible with another cat but my foster carer believes I would prefer being the only cat in the household! I haven't met any dogs yet.

*In foster care in Redfern, Sydney* Fluffy has the softest calico coat, the most gorgeous eyes, and the sweetest little 'meow' ever! This part-Persian lass doesn't let her deafness or epilepsy get in the way of enjoying life to the fullest - she loves to play and explore, and her laser toy is a particular favourite! Like all Maggie's pets, Fluffy is microchipped, desexed and vaccinated. **We ask all people looking to adopt to fill in our adoption enquiry form at https://form.jotform.co/92940837256870. Please use this link rather than the 'Enquire' button on the pet's PetRescue profile.** MY IDEAL HOME: Because I'm deaf, I'm looking for a safe, indoor-only home, with possible supervised time in the yard or garden. A pretty low-key, stable sort of vibe is important too - I hate it when people surprise me randomly! A household without young kids will likely be a good match, with a quiet single person would be just purrfect. I DO like dogs, if you've got one of those in residence! If you're looking for a lap cat or someone who loves (or even tolerates) snuggles, I'm not going to be a great choice - although I enjoy hanging out where the action is, I'm not a fan of being picked up or patted. MY ENERGY LEVEL: I'm a snoozy sort of girl, really! Though in the right mood, I'll bat my toys around the house, stalk my reflection in the mirror or chase moving objects on the TV screen. MY SUITABILITY TO CHILDREN: I'm not really a hands-on sort of cat, and I don't like too much bustle which can be confusing and stressful for me, so an adult-only home would be best. Older children who are able to understand my special needs might be nice company, though! MY SUITABILITY TO CATS AND DOGS: I've enjoyed the time I've spent with friendly dogs while in foster care! I'm less partial to other cats, but happy to give it a try if you've got a nice one at home :)
