About Chuba
Chuba is a desexed female domestic short hair available for adoption in Laverton North (Melbourne, VIC).
Chuba spends most of her day as a calm, composed cat, watching the room from a favourite perch.
Then a wand toy appears, and the switch flips: paws flying, eyes locked, completely in the game.
When playtime winds down, she comes back to her softer side, leaning her face into a hand or settling close by for quiet company, content just to be near you.
A little about Chuba:
🐾 Switches instantly from composed to playful when a wand toy appears
🐾 Shows affection through gentle face presses and quiet closeness
🐾 Settled on a supportive, vet-guided diet that keeps her digestion happy
🐾 Thrives with calm, familiar routines
🐾 Loves having an indoor home's quiet corners to herself
She picks a favourite spot, keeps half an eye on the comings and goings of the household, and settles into deep, unbothered naps that can stretch through most of the afternoon.
With someone new, Chuba takes her cues slowly, watching, listening, and deciding in her own time when to come closer.
Once she's comfortable, she adds you to her routine: a face press here, a moment of company there, offered on her own terms. It's a genuine, generous kind of trust once she offers it.
An indoor home with calm, familiar routines is where Chuba feels most herself, settled and unhurried.
She'll suit a guardian who enjoys her quieter moments just as much as the playful bursts in between, and who doesn't mind a cat with clear opinions about her own space.
A dog-free home suits her best, and she's easygoing enough to happily share it with another cat.
Being indoor-only suits Chuba perfectly: her world stays calm, contained and entirely on her terms.
Picture a quiet afternoon with Chuba curled in her favourite spot, then padding over the moment she hears her toy box rustle.
Chuba is a cat who gives affection in small, deliberate ways and delight in big, sudden bursts of play. Both are hers to offer, and all she needs is a household ready to enjoy them equally.
FAQ

Does she get along with other cats?
She's easygoing around other cats, a dog-free home is what really matters to her.

A hydrolysed-protein diet keeps her digestion settled, a simple routine her new vet can pick straight up from her patient history.

Medical notes
Chuba is in good general health and is currently on a hydrolysed-protein diet to support her digestive system. It is a straightforward, well-managed part of her daily routine.
She may benefit from semi-regular veterinary check-ins to keep her gut health well supported over time. This is very manageable with a proactive guardian and a vet who is across her history.
Her full patient history is on file and ready to share with her new guardian's veterinary team when the time comes.

Adoption details
When enquiring about a pet listed with Home2Home, your enquiry goes directly to the pet’s guardian—the person who knows them best!
From here, the guardian will be in touch to learn more about you and chat with you about their pet. It’s a great opportunity for you 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.
If your home and lifestyle match the pet's needs, the next step will be arranging a meet-and-greet to make sure everyone is happy to proceed with a formal adoption.
Following the adoption, change of ownership paperwork will be completed, and proof of vaccination, microchipping, and desexing (if applicable, as indicated on the listing) will be provided.
All pets adopted through Home2Home will require an adoption contract to be signed and an adoption fee to be paid. The pet’s guardian will complete the adoption contract with you and provide a link to PetRescue’s secure payment portal for completing the adoption fee payment.
Home2Home currently operates a ‘pay what you choose’ system for cat adoption fees. This means that adopters will be able to choose an adoption fee amount that is suitable for them. All adoption fees are used to support PetRescue's life-saving programs, including Home2Home.
This pet has been adopted and found love with its new family.
