About Helios
*In foster care in Marrickville, Sydney*
A major smooch who'll give cuddles and kisses all day if you let him, Helios can't wait to meet his new human/s - especially if you've got another cat or two for him to bond with!
This happy and nurturing boy loves to groom all members of his foster family (including the resident kitty), and adores being the centre of attention. Though he's missing his right eye, this doesn't slow him down in the slightest!
Helios will ALWAYS have a piece of kitty litter stuck on his nose after he goes to the toilet, so sometimes he'll need a bit of help to clean up :) He also has an obsession with sneakers - he'll tackle them first, before settling into a deep and meaningful full-body rub. You really shouldn’t interrupt the process - its a purely romantic moment between him and the shoes...
Like all Maggie's pets, Helios is microchipped, desexed and vaccinated.

MY IDEAL HOME: I thrive on affection (both giving and receiving!), so I'm looking for a human who enjoys long snuggles on the sofa just as much as I do, and a feline friend or two to keep me company. I've never been on my own and I don't want to be!
As a big enthusiast of the parkour sports, having high spots like a cat tree and window ledges to bounce off is a must, as are open spaces for me to race around and work off my endless kitten energy.
MY ENERGY LEVEL: As above! You'll often find (or hear) me pinging off the walls and playing up a storm with my favourite toy spring. Playing tag with my foster family, and chasing my brother and the resident cat up and down the hall and through the cat tunnel are also heaps of fun!
When I've worn myself out, I immediately turn into a couch potato and snooze contentedly by myself or with a friend for hours on end.
MY SUITABILITY TO CHILDREN: Though I've not met any children yet, I'm patient, gentle and super-sweet, so I reckon I'd get on wonderfully with kids of at least school age (ideally 6+).
MY SUITABILITY TO CATS AND DOGS: My brother and I joined our foster family together and we've both learnt good manners, boundaries and how to play appropriately from resident war lord cat Mimi!
I haven't had any experience with dogs at this stage.

Adoption details
We ask all people looking to adopt to fill in our adoption enquiry form at https://form.jotform.co/92940837256870. Please use this link rather than the 'Enquire' button on the pet's PetRescue profile to streamline your enquiry.
Our foster carer will contact you when we receive your application to arrange a time for you to meet with their foster pet.
We want your adoption through Maggie's to be a good experience so we will occasionally suggest a different cat or dog that may suit your situation better and the needs of the individual pet.
All our pets leave for their new homes on a two-week trial. At the end of the trial, we will transfer the microchip into your name and provide you with the pets vet certificates. Once you receive the Certificate of Identification from council, your adoption will be complete.
Please consider, that a Maggie's Pet is a pet for Life, before adopting.
