About Barrie
Say hello to Barrie, an extraordinary and gentle feline with an inspiring story. This devoted mother recently came into care with her three kittens, and she nurtured them with love and care until they were ready to find homes of their own. Now it's Barrie's turn to find a loving new family where she can bask in the affection and companionship she truly deserves.
Barrie is a quiet and peaceful soul who enjoys the tranquility of a serene environment. She's not been around other pets; her preference is to find a cozy nook where she feels safe and secure. This charming kitty would thrive in a home where she can claim a bit of space just for herself, away from the hustle and bustle.
Barrie found herself looking for a new home due to her previous owner's situation, but she remains hopeful for a loving family to call her own. Her calm demeanor and gentle nature make her a wonderful companion, and she will surely fill your home with warmth and serenity. If you have a heart and home ready for a sweet, nurturing spirit, Barrie may be just the feline friend you've been seeking.

Adoption details
The first step to adoption once you find the purrfect pet, is to phone (preferred) or email Port Macquarie Animal Welfare Service for assessment regarding prospective ownership and pet suitability.
Adoption Application forms must be completed and a property inspection will be carried out on properties in the Port Macquarie area.
A 2 week trial period commences on the day of adoption.
All PMAWS cats come desexed, microchipped, vaccinated (up to date), wormed, flea treated and litter trained.

Introducing a Kitten/Cat into a new home (especially where either a dog or cat already lives) can be a difficult challenge. It requires patience, perseverance and supervision.
Once your new kitten/cat arrives home, he or she should be made to feel safe in their own room - we call this the "sanctuary". No other cat or dog should be allowed into this room until they are fully comfortable with their new surroundings. The kitten/cat will need bedding, food, water, a view out of a window and somewhere to hide. A good idea in dog and cat families is also a 2 metre tall scratching post, where a kitten/cat can retreat if they need to.
Keep the kitten/cat in a room for the first few days, then, gradually, using a series of wooden chocks (or similar), open the door slightly to allow paws and noses to meet. It can then be opened further to allow the kitten/cat in and out, but not the older cat or dog in. We recommend that this should be continued for 14 days.
PMAWS URGES ALL OWNERS TO KEEP THEIR CATS INDOORS FOR THEIR OWN SAFETY. THERE ARE PEOPLE AROUND WHO AREN'T FOND OF CATS AND CAN DO UNTHINKABLE THINGS TO OUR DEFENCELESS LITTLE BABIES. THEY HAVE ALSO BEEN KNOWN TO BE COLLECTED AND USED AS LIVE BAIT FOR DOG TRAINING AND FISHING LURES, AND ALSO KITTENS AS LIVE SNAKE FOOD. THE ONLY WAY TO KEEP YOUR KITTY 100% SAFE, IS TO KEEP THEM INDOORS AND WE WHOLEHEARTEDLY ENCOURAGE THIS PRACTICE.
