About Delphine STA011891
Meet Delphine. This beautiful lady has a shy and reserved temperament, and a reserve of deep affection yet to be tapped. Her gentle soul yearns for a companion in the form of a confident feline friend who could guide her out of her protective shell and teach her that love and trust go hand in hand.
Delphine is a social butterfly when around her kind. She cherishes the company of other cats and would thrive in a home that has a resident cat or two.
Having come from a less-than-ideal past, Delphine has a vulnerability and innocence that makes her even more endearing. For her, a calm, quiet home with a structured routine would be ideal.
Delphine is very bashful around humans and her trust won't be won in a day, yet for a patient and cat-savvy human, the reward will be an unimaginable bond of trust and love. Delphine deserves a home that will offer her the security and patience she needs to thrive and grow in trust.
To aid in her healing journey, a home without children or dogs would be preferred, ensuring she gets the tranquil stability she seeks.
Adoption details
Simply note the ID number and the cats name and visit our hostel at 200 Elder Street in Greensborough. Alternatively you can call the hostel on 8457 6500. We are currently open Mon-Fri 10am-4pm / Sat-Sun 10am-3pm.
You should bring proof of your current address and preferably photo identification such as your driving license. You can only adopt a cat for yourself we do not allow animals to leave with third parties. If you are wishing to adopt a cat as a present for someone, bring them with you as cats are individuals and bond with different people in different ways, the cat you may choose, may not choose your friend! It is also important to allocate time for adoption and we recommend you allow at least a couple of hours to get to know the cat and do the necessary paperwork.
When you visit you will get to meet the cat and as this is a very important decision for both you and the cat you choose we will want to ensure the two of you are compatible and that you understand what will be involved in taking the cat into your home.
We will want to be satisfied that you are prepared to be a responsible pet owner. Responsible pet owners at the most basic level, have their pets registered, micro-chipped and de-sexed unless they are registered breeders. They also understand the issues involved in being able to properly care and take responsibility for the welfare of their pets. Most Councils in Victoria have limits on the numbers of cats you may own without a permit. It is important to check with your Council if you already own the limit and obtain a permit for the extra cat before adoption. We will require to see your permit.
We will answer any questions you have regarding cat care and help you to obtain any support you may need.
