Adoption information
I've been adopted!
About Abigail
I am a quiet little sweetheart who can be a bit timid at first. I will need some time to adjust and settle into my new home. I spend a lot of time lounging around in my bed, it's my safe place.
I like gentle pats and chin scratches, I need someone to show me love!
I will need to be an inside cat to protect my white features from the sun.
I prefer to be your only cat, I don't enjoying sharing with others.
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.

Please give the shelter a call on 5334 2075 or email animalshelter@ballarat.vic.gov.au for more information about the animal and our adoption procedures.
Apologies if we do not reply to your enquiry, we are a busy Shelter and get pulled away from the office often.
We appreciate you wanting to adopt! Please do not let this discourage you from adopting in the future!
This pet has been adopted and found love with its new family.
