About Merlin
Meet Merlin, a confident and chatty boy who thrives on companionship. He would be happiest in a home where his owner is often present.
Breakfast is undoubtedly Merlin's favorite time of day. He struggles to focus on anything or anyone else until his belly is full. His excitement can sometimes get the better of him during play, leading to some hilariously energetic bursts of razzed behaviour.
Merlin needs to be a solo cat and will require regular vet checks due to his FIV status. Keeping Merlin indoors is crucial for his health, and also to protect his light features from the sun.
Though he isn't suited to a household with young children, Merlin will be a joyful and loyal companion to anyone who can give him the attention he craves.
If you're looking for a playful and sociable cat who will fill your days with love and chatter, Merlin could be the perfect addition to your life.

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
Sat- 9am-12:30pm - Dogs Only
Sun- CLOSED
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!
