Adoption information
I've been adopted!
About Maxwell
I am a smoochy fella who enjoys lots of attention and love. I arrived at the shelter very shy and skittish but learnt to trust people. I will need time to adjust and settle into my new home, I would like someone who is around often to spend time with me as I can be a bit needy. I will need to be inside to protect my white nose from sun damage.
I do well sharing with other cats for company, no young kids for me they are too overwhelming.
Adoption details
We are not open to walk ins, appointments by booking only. All households members must be present before we can adopt an animal out.
As our goal is to adopt animals out from the shelter into loving homes as fast as possible, multiple bookings may be made for the same animal.
We are not able to hold any animals for any reason.
As such, there is a possibility that the animal you may have found a forever home before your appointment. If this is the case we will inform you by phone call as soon as possible.
