About Nami & Leona
Meet this sweet Mum-and-bub bonded duo, Nami and Leona!
Nami (Mum) is protective of Leona (3 month old baby), but is gentle and relaxed once she realises that she can trust any new humans in her company. Once she has built a bit of rapport, she is very happy to rub up against your legs and won't say no to a pat! Nami was pregnant at a very young age and she is approximately one year old now.
Leona (Kitten) is the sweetest; she is still working on her confidence and can be a tad shy, however she's very purr-y and playful once she's feeling comfortable. This girl will absolutely grow into herself and come out of her shell given a bit of time.
It is a joy to watch these two interact and clearly have a special relationship <3
**Please note, Nami and Leona are indoor-only cats; the exception to this is if they have access to a secure outdoor enclosure. This is to ensure their health, safety and wellbeing
Medical notes
Due to a nationwide shortage of Feline F3 vaccines, Nami and Leona may not have received this crucial immunisation before adoption. This vaccine guards against Feline Panleukopenia, Feline Herpesvirus, and Feline Calicivirus.
For details and further information you will be provided with a no vaccination waiver. Feel free to discuss with our Adoption Coordinator during the adoption process.
Adoption details
Regardless of the breed of animal you are looking to adopt, our adoption process is the same.
The first step of the process involves submitting an adoption application form. The form helps us understand a little bit more about you and your household and is used to figure out whether animal is the right fit for your household and what you are looking for, and also if your household is the right fit for the animal.
After a review process, shortlisted applicants will be contacted by one of our volunteer adoption coordinators usually by phone call or message. This is an informal conversation to discuss any questions we may have about the application and re-confirm any information provided. It is usually at at this point that we will organise a Meet & Greet with you and the animal.
It is a Strong Heart’s adoption policy to arrange a Meet & Greet with the prospective family and the animal before finalising the adoption. The Meet & Greet will allow the opportunity to visit the animal and have a pat and a play with them. The foster carer will tell you a bit about the animal's personality and what they have been like for the time they’ve been in their care. It is a great opportunity to ask the carer about the animals food, sleeping and any other health requirements.
If the Meet & Greet goes well on the day, in most cases you will be able to take the animal home straight away after payment of the adoption fee. All necessary paperwork including vet work history and transfer of ownership information will be sent via email within a few days unless otherwise specified.
