Adoption information
About Winona Ryder
*Please note: Winona is currently enjoying foster care and is not located at the shelter full-time. If you are interested in meeting her, please mention this in your enquiry so our foster carer can arrange to bring her in for a meet and greet. Because she is in foster care, same-day enquiries and same-day meet & greets are unfortunately not possible. *
Meet Winona Ryder, at first, she might come across as a little reserved. Think of her journey as opening a flower's petals—it's gradual and worth every moment.
Winona has a special fondness for treats, which play an important role in building trust. Pair up some tasty snacks with gentle chin pats, and watch her warm up to you, associating those moments with love and safety. She's best suited for a peaceful home that allows her to shine and feel comfortable.
One of her charming traits is her ability to make friends with other cats, adding a social touch to her personality. If you have a quiet household and understand her need for a slow-paced approach, Winona will fit right in, showing her affectionate side as she gets more and more comfortable.
Embrace the chance to bond with Winona Ryder, and you'll discover a delightful feline friend who's eager to share life's gentle moments with you.

Adoption details
We run by appointment, preferably all members of the household to come meet the animal you are wanting to adopt.
If you own another dog, you must bring them along to make sure all dogs get along.
As our goal is to adopt animals out from the shelter into loving homes as fast as possible, multiple bookings may be made for the same animal.
We are not able to hold any animals for any reason.
As such, there is a possibility that the animal you may have found a forever home before your appointment. If this is the case we will inform you by phone call as soon as possible.
Appointment Hours:
Mon- Fri
1:00PM- 4PM
Saturdays for March
14th & 28th
10am-1pm
Please give the shelter a call on 5334 2075 or email animalshelter@ballarat.vic.gov.au for more information about the animal and our adoption procedures.
Apologies if we do not reply to your enquiry, we are a busy Shelter and get pulled away from the office often.
We appreciate you wanting to adopt! Please do not let this discourage you from adopting in the future!
