About Ginger Megs
Ginger Megs is a loving senior boy, at least 12 years old, who has had a challenging life. Abandoned by his owners when he was young, he was left to fend for himself. Fortunately, a kind neighbour stepped in, ensuring he had food, water, and a cozy bed on the verandah. Most of his life has been spent outdoors, never knowing the warmth and love of a caring home.
This compassionate neighbour did her best to care for Ginger Megs over the years, but her circumstances changed recently when she had to move into dementia care. Once again, Ginger Megs found himself alone. Facing the threat of euthanasia, as the owner's children lived interstate and couldn't take him, they reached out to Ninth Life Foundation and we stepped in just in time, rescuing this gentle boy from that devastating fate.
Upon arrival, Ginger Megs was understandably frightened, but he's gradually coming out the other side and revealing his super gentle & affectionate nature. He would thrive in a calm environment where he can build confidence and trust. Ginger Megs needs a kind-hearted person to show him patience and help him adapt to the comforts of a warm, loving home, where he'll never have to brave the elements or worry about his next meal again.
Ginger Megs enjoys gentle pats and is content to sit beside you. With a slow and careful introduction, he may even be open to sharing his home with other gentle cats.
If you can open your heart and home to Ginger Megs, he will be your devoted companion.

Adoption details
You need to be a pretty special cat person to adopt an elderly cat into your home. Not as sprightly as a kitten they still require your attention…even devotion. You’ll need to understand their daily routines and take some time to get to know them. Help them with grooming – a great way to bond- as they often don’t have the energy to do it properly themselves. Older cats are stress averse so be patient, observant and take a little more care of their health needs and you’ll soon have a loving companion.
All our cats have received a full health & wellness check and are ready for their new home.
If you are interested in adopting one of our furry friends please either call 4314 6654 or contact info@ninthlifefoundation.org.
