About Checkers
I am a friendly fella, who loves to get lots of attention and pats but can also be independent as well. I am a talker and will have lots of conversations with you. I can also get a bit razzed up playing at times so no little kids for me please. My favourite things are food and playing.
I love being around other cats and will need to have a cat friend in my new home. I can play quite rough, I like to wrestle!
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.
