About Skittles
✨ Meet Skittles — A Sweet, Shy Senior Searching for a Quiet, Loving Home ✨
Skittles is an 11‑year‑old white beauty with a gentle heart and a soft, affectionate spirit. She may be shy at first, but once she warms up, she becomes a deeply loving companion who purrs the moment you’re near and adores gentle affection 💛🐱
This lovely senior girl is calm, sensitive, and happiest in peaceful spaces. She’s not overly playful — instead, she’s all about naps, head rubs, quiet company and finding the perfect cozy sleeping spot.
💖 Her Personality
Her foster carer describes her in three words:
Shy • Loving • Very affectionate
🌸 Her Favourite Things
➖ Head rubs and soft pats
➖ Cute little “chats” before breakfast
➖ Belly rubs once she fully trusts you
➖ Napping in her comfy cardboard box or cat cave bed
➖ Sniffing and rubbing on shoes — her absolute favourite
➖ Being close to her human in a calm, quiet room
🐾 Good to Know's
➖ Fully litter trained
➖ Low play level – prefers sleeping and relaxing
➖ Not yet exposed to children
➖ Fearful of dogs
➖ Curious about other cats
➖ Sensitive to loud noises and fast movements
🏡 Her Ideal Home
Skittles needs a soft, peaceful, easy-going household where she can feel safe and adored. She would thrive:
➖ In a quiet home with predictable routines
➖ With gentle, patient humans
➖ In a home without children or dogs
➖ With someone who appreciates a shy girl who blossoms slowly and beautifully
Skittles is a sweet, tender soul who wants nothing more than a calm space, gentle love, and someone who will cherish her through her golden years 💛✨

Adoption details
Please do not apply to adopt via our animals' PetRescue profile.
Follow the links below to be directed to the Wollongong City Council website, and find your preferred animal's online profile.
Once in the online profile, scroll down and click the link to complete an adoption application. Once received, a member of our team will be in touch to discuss your application and suitability for your preferred animal.
If we deem the animal to be suitable for your home and lifestyle, an in-person meet and greet may be organised.
