About Orion
** I will be a project cat as I am extremely shy and am hesitant on touch, I will need a quiet home with no kids to help me settle**
Meet Orion, he is more comfortable with quiet observation from a safe distance than with immediate affection.
While Orion may initially come across as scared, shy, and timid, he will be absorbing the world around him at his own pace. With his keen interest in other cats, Orion thrives in an environment with feline companions who can help guide him as he adjusts to new surroundings.
Orion would flourish in a peaceful and calm household, where he is given the freedom to settle in without pressure or rush. He needs time to build trust and may not be keen on touch.
Medical notes
No known pre-existing conditions.
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- 1-4pm
Tues- CLOSED
Wed- 1-4pm
Thurs- 1-4pm
Fri- 1-4pm

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!
