About Thistle
All hail the perfect little goblin princess.
With facial expressions that would have given Grumpy Cat a serious run for her money, Thistle has absolutely mastered the art of dramatic side-eye. Beneath that permanently unimpressed look is a soft, sensitive little heart that has come such a long way.
Thistle arrived in care alongside Brad and Chad... her so-called “brothers” (though we have our suspicions they're not actually related!). Despite that, she has formed the sweetest bond with her adopted brothers and blossomed in their company.
When she first came into care, Thistle was fiercely defensive. She would hiss at anyone who so much as glanced in her direction and absolutely refused to be touched. Fast forward to today and this brave little girl is welcoming scratches behind the ears, accepting pats and even joining in playtime with the boys. Watching her confidence grow has been nothing short of magical.
She has magnificent tufty ears, a gloriously soft coat, and a presence that somehow manages to be both regal and slightly mischievous at the same time.
Thistle is still a reserved kitten and will need a patient, understanding home that allows her time to feel safe and settle in at her own pace. She has been in care with small dogs and while they're not exactly her favourite creatures, we believe a calm, placid dog who respects kitty boundaries, might be okay!
Most importantly, Thistle needs a feline buddy in her forever home to help her continue building confidence. With a gentle and loving family, this goblin princess will continue to shine.

Adoption details
All animals adopted through Out of the Woods Rescue are desexed, vaccinated, microchipped, flea/worm treated and health-checked. We aim to match each animal with a home that suits their needs and personality.
Here’s how our adoption process works:
Submit an application – This helps us get to know you, your household and what you're looking for in a pet.
Phone chat – If your application looks like a potential fit, one of our team members will contact you for a casual phone conversation to answer questions and discuss the animal in more detail.
Meet and greet – You’ll meet the animal in their foster home or another agreed location. If everyone agrees it’s a good match, we can proceed to adoption.
Adoption paperwork and payment – Our adoption fees cover desexing, microchipping, vaccination and parasite treatment.
Once adopted, the animal becomes part of your family. We're still here for post-adoption support if you ever need any help.
We’re committed to ethical adoptions and reserve the right to decline applications if we feel the match isn’t in the best interest of the animal.
