About Thelma
💛 About Thelma
Thelma is a lovely 1‑year‑old girl with a gentle, quiet nature and a sweet affection for people. While she can be a little timid at first, she enjoys human companionship and quickly learns to trust those who are kind and patient with her. Once comfortable, Thelma happily seeks out pats, attention, and cozy places to relax near her favourite people.
A true sun seeker, Thelma loves nothing more than stretching out in a warm patch of sunshine and enjoying a peaceful afternoon nap. She has a calm, easy-going personality but still enjoys the occasional play session with her toys. Food is also a great way to win her over, making it easy to build her confidence and strengthen your bond.

Adoption details
Please do not apply to adopt via our animals' PetRescue profile.
Follow the links below to be directed to the Wollongong City Council website, and find your preferred animal's online profile.
Once in the online profile, scroll down and click the link to complete an adoption application. Once received, a member of our team will be in touch to discuss your application and suitability for your preferred animal.
If we deem the animal to be suitable for your home and lifestyle, an in-person meet and greet may be organised. Should your meet and greet be a success, you can take your new furry friend home that day or following their desexing surgery. Our team will manage all your animal's paperwork, including ownership and vaccination documentation.
