About Satin
Our adorable girl, Satin is playful, loving and snuggly. She loves her foster humans and all the attention she gets from them, and she will purr as soon as she sees them just in readiness. She is adorably playful, loving to play with anything she can find around her foster home, she loves a rolled up receipt, a hair tie or an empty toilet roll. She loves to try and catch her ever elusive tail and play with her siblings, but she can find joy anywhere.
Satin also loves a belly rub and will often just drift off to sleep when she's lying in her foster carer's arms. Satin is super affectionate and just wants to spend her days with humans that love her and will shower her with pets and treats.
Please note that Cotton will need to be an inside cat only for safety due to their fair skin and deafness. Cats and kittens with light noses and/or ears are more susceptible to getting sunburnt, and in turn, getting skin cancer.
All AWL NSW kittens and cats come litter trained, desexed, microchipped, and will have received their first vaccination.

Expressions of interest to Illawarra Branch Adoption Application Form
Deaf cats make wonderful pets and despite the misconception that they might be harder to care for, they can actually be easier to manage and more affectionate than their hearing counterparts.
Here's why:
Deaf cats don't respond to loud noises or external sounds, which means they tend to be more relaxed in a home. They won't startle from sudden noises like thunderstorms, fireworks, or the vacuum cleaner, making them a great choice for people who live in busy homes.
Deaf cats rely more on their other senses, such as sight and touch, to communicate and bond with their owners. Many develop a closer and more affectionate relationship with their humans because of this.
Since deaf cats can't hear the world around them, they tend to be less distracted by sounds. This can make them more attentive and focused on their surroundings and human companions, which can help with training and interaction.
Training a deaf cat is often easier with positive reinforcement, as they can learn to associate hand signals or visual cues with actions, such as sitting or giving high fives.
Many deaf cats develop quirky and endearing behaviours. Because they rely on sight and touch, they show more interest in playing or exploring tactile objects, their unique way of interacting with the world can be fascinating and charming for their owners.
