Sirius

Sirius is the kind of cat who likes to take the first meeting at his own pace, but once he knows you're a friend, he's more than happy to stay for the pats.

He can be a little nervous in unfamiliar situations, so don't be surprised if he takes a moment to work you out. A calm voice and a gentle hand are all it takes for Sirius to relax, and before long he's leaning into your pats and enjoying the attention. It's always lovely to watch that little change in confidence as he realises he's safe.

At just 1 year old, Sirius has a sweet, gentle personality that's still growing. He prefers to keep all four paws on the floor rather than being picked up, but he's more than happy to stay close and enjoy your company in his own way. We think he'll thrive in a home that lets him settle in naturally and appreciates the quiet trust he offers in return. Sirius also has a minor Grade 1 dental condition that does not require surgery and is generally reversible with good dental care at home, including regular tooth brushing and a dental friendly diet.

If you're looking for a kind-hearted companion who'll reward your patience with plenty of affection, Sirius could be the perfect match. We encourage you to come and meet Sirius at our North Melbourne shelter as soon as possible, as our cats cannot be placed on hold. We think this lovely boy has so much love to give.
