Adoption information
About Otis
Meet Otis, a charming and loyal cat with a blend of curiosity and independence. Though he is very cautious of strangers, and can be wary of adult men, once he's settled into the right home, Otis's devotion will be clear. He is very loyal to his chosen person.
Otis's communication style is distinctive — he has a delightful chirping meow. He’s a smart kitty who is proud of knowing his name. When Otis wants a chat and pats, he'll approach and softly tap you with his paw. He will brush around you, chirping and eagerly seeking your attention. If you're cooking or eating something of interest, he will stand up next to you and chirp to get a tiny morsel. You'll notice him scent-marking (or "smooching") everything, making sure his love for you is spread throughout the household. Otis's Bengal genetics are limited to these behaviours - he does not require the high level of interaction Bengals often need.
While Otis is thoughtful and loves independence, he thrives in an environment with respectful companionship. He enjoys the social company of other cats, though younger (or young at heart) feline friends are preferred—especially for engaging in his nightly prowls around the house and maybe a wrestle. With some settling in time, he may even accompany you on walks with a cat lead.
His big appetite mirrors his big heart, and with mindful care and understanding of his boundaries, Otis will flourish in a home that is calm and stress free. Invite this lovely companion into your life, and you'll have a diligent, curious fellow who can't wait to love and charm you for years to come.

Adoption details
All forms (including foster and adoption) can be found at the following link:
http://www.challyanimalrescue.org.au/adopt.php
** Only applications submitted via this link will be considered **
Our adoption process is as follows:
1) Animal is listed on PetRescue
2) Applications are received
3) The application which we feel offers the best-suited home to the pet is contacted for first preference of a meet and greet to see if they 'click' with the animal.
We do not follow a first-in, first-served process and only consider applications completed via our online form.
Due the popularity of some dogs - and the fact that our rescue is run entirely by volunteers - we cannot guarantee that all unsuccessful applicants will be notified, however we will do our best.
