About Basil
We at Home2Home believe everyone deserves the joy that cat guardianship brings! We love seeing wonderful cats matched with loving adopters, and we don’t want adoption fees to be a barrier to you bringing a loving cat into your heart and home. So if Basil sounds like the cat for you, we ask you to nominate your own adoption fee amount. There is no minimum or maximum amount required, and all adoption fees continue to fund PetRescue’s life-saving programs that support pets and people!
Meet Basil, our charmingly cheeky and incredibly sociable cat looking for his next place to call home.
Playful, fun-loving, and social, he's constantly brimming with adventures, making him the heart and soul of every room he enters. His favourite pastimes include swatting feather toys, bird-watching, exploring empty baskets, and playfully prancing around the house with his beloved play stick in tow.
Basil's endearing quirks make him quite the character in the household. Rich in personality and vocal about it too, he communicates his wishes in the most adorable way, by using a variety of chirps and trills. And don't be surprised if you see him engaging in a spirited chase, followed by zoomies around the house - he has the energy, and he's not afraid to show it!
Staying by your side is his favourite way of expressing his love. Basil loves to cuddle up with you on the couch, follow you closely throughout your daily tasks, and occasionally gift you nose boops as a demonstration of his devotion. His other lovable habits include keeping a close watch on you from high-up places, amusing you with his playful spirit, and purring sweetly at the end of a long day.
If you're looking for a feline companion with a knack for socializing and thrives in the company of fellow cats or animals, Basil is your boy. He's equally content with a lively party or quietly following you around during chores. Concluding the day with a warm cup of tea, a good read, and Basil by your side, could be your ideal evening. Welcome Basil into your life - He is ready to fill your home with joy, laughter, and lots of feline love.

Adoption details
When enquiring about a pet listed with Home2Home, your enquiry goes directly to the pet’s owner - the person who knows them best!
It’s a great opportunity to ask any questions you may have about the pet, including its likes and dislikes, needs, and how it may fit into your lifestyle and family.
From here, the owner will be in touch with you to chat a bit more about their pet, and if they feel your home is the best fit, they will arrange a ‘meet and greet’ for you all to get to know each other.
Should this prove successful, arrangements will be made for the pet to move straight from its current home into yours upon payment of the adoption fee.
The adoption fee is paid directly to PetRescue (via a secure payment link), and assists us to continue to run and develop programs to assist pet owners, just like Home2Home.
Home2Home currently operates a pay-what-you-can system for cat adoption fees. This means that adopters will be able to choose the adoption fee amount that is most suitable for their situation
Following adoption - change of ownership paperwork will be completed, and proof of vaccination, microchipping and desexing (if applicable, as indicated on listing) will be provided.
