Jasper

Domestic Short Hair

Gentle soul

AVAILABLE FOR ADOPTION JASPER ❤❤ Age - 16 weeks Breed - Domestic short hair Gender - Male Cat Friendly - Yes but they will need to be gentle natured Dog Friendly - Learning Child Friendly - Not suited to a home with children Smooch Scale - Very scared, although incredibly gentle and grabs onto you and buries into you for comfort Location - Deception Bay 4508 Adoption Fee - $150 Medical Notes - Ready to leave care now Our beautiful little man "Jasper" was sprung from a northern pound after he found himself on death row because he was scared and "hard to rehome". When Jasper arrived into care he was shut down and terrified. He tried to hide from everything around him and his body froze still out of fear. After only a couple of weeks Jasper is already playing with toys, playing with the other kittens, and is okay with his foster humans gently handling him. When picked up he completely freezes and buries into your arm for support and safety. He gently holds onto your arm with his paws in hope that his humans keep him safe from this scarey world. Jasper is NOT aggressive in ANY way and is very very gentle. Jasper needs an extra special home and will remain in our care until we find the perfect forever home for him. His home must understand that Jasper will need time to settle into new environments and learn to trust his humans. He would be best suited to a quiet home with no children. He would happily live with other animals as long as they were gentle and respectful of him. Jasper is very closely bonded to his friend, and possible brother "William". William brings out Jasper's confidence and is helping to make this big change much easier for him. We would love to see both boys go to the same home, however we will also rehome them separately to the right homes ❤ Please get in touch if you would like to meet Jasper, or any of our other rescue animals 🐾

Jetson

Burmese Mix

A gentle boy

☆☆☆URGENT FOSTER HOME NEEDED☆☆☆ AVAILABLE FOR ADOPTION JETSON ❤❤❤ Age - Approximately 1 year Gender - Male Breed - Burmese mix Cat Friendly - Only with male cats, can be selective with what female cats he likes Dog Friendly - Untested Child Friendly - Untested Smooch Scale - Initially nervous of surroundings but wants reassurance from his humans. He wants to be picked up and cuddled like a baby. Location - Aspley 4034 QLD Adoption Fee - $99 Medical Notes - Jetson has a little curle in his ear, and a broken tail. Both are only cosmetic issues and cause him no pain. Neither issues will require further treatment. Our sweet and soft boy Jetson arrived into our care back in May, after being saved from death row in a northern QLD pound. Him, and his brother Elroy where underweight, and needed some TLC before being ready to be rehomed. His brother Elroy has found his perfect forever family and now it's Jetson's turn to start looking for his. Jetson is a very petite boy, and even though he is now at a healthy weight, he is still a small cat. Jetson is a very soft and gentle boy who slinks his way over to you for cuddles and affection. He enjoys being held over your shoulder and cuddled like the baby he is. He will surprise you though and overnight rip all the stuffing out of his toys when his humans aren't looking. Jetson has lived with other males cats who he has got along with well. Unfortunately in his previous foster home he didn't get along well with the female cat. We're not sure if he doesn't like all other female cats, or if he just didn't like that one particular cat. Please get in touch if you would like to meet Jetson, or would like any further information on our gorgeous boy 🐾
