Adoption information
About Mouse
Mouse is a male cat available for adoption in Newstead (Brisbane, Queensland).
Mouse is a social, friendly cat who loves being where his people are. He's a loyal companion who follows his person like a shadow.
He's playful, active and full of personality, and just as keen on a cuddle on the couch as he is on a game.
He suits a home where someone is around more often than not, and where play and company are part of every day.
A little about Mouse:
🐾 Loves his toy bee on a string, and any excuse for a game
🐾 Big fan of belly rubs and a good lower-back scratch
🐾 Adores bird-watching and chasing leaves on a balcony or in a garden
🐾 Lights up when guests arrive, and loves being part of the gathering
Mouse's mornings start with belly rubs and cuddles, plus a brush of his gorgeous coat.
The middle of the day is for naps and lounging in the sun. Later comes bird-watching, leaf-chasing and a little exploring in the fresh air.
Evenings are for couch cuddles in front of the TV, then a burst of play and zoomies before he takes himself off to bed.
His affection is easy to read. He's at the door when you come home. He flops on the floor in front of you for a belly rub. He finds you on the couch for pats, and sits by your side while you work.
When you're giving him a scratch, he pushes his back end up to point you to the exact spot. It's a request that's hard to ignore.
Visitors are a treat for Mouse. He comes to say hello, enjoys a pat when it's offered, and likes to stay in the room, perched on his scratch post while everyone chats over dinner.
He's an active cat with a busy, curious mind, so play and things to do are a big part of what makes him happy.
He'll be happiest as the only pet, where all that company and play is his.
A balcony or secure garden gives his bird-watching and leaf-chasing somewhere to happen.
He suits a guardian who loves an engaged, people-focused cat and enjoys making playtime part of the day.
He's polite, too. Mouse has never scratched the furniture, only his own post.
Picture a weeknight. Dinner's done, Mouse hops up beside you on the couch, nudges in for pats, then waits for one last round with the bee toy.
Mouse is ready to be someone's shadow. The doorway hello, the belly-up flop and the evening zoomies all come with him.

Adoption details
When enquiring about a pet listed with Home2Home, your enquiry goes directly to the pet’s guardian—the person who knows them best!
From here, the guardian will be in touch to learn more about you and chat with you about their pet. It’s a great opportunity for you to ask any questions you may have about the pet, including its likes and dislikes, needs, and how it may fit into your lifestyle and family.
If your home and lifestyle match the pet's needs, the next step will be arranging a meet-and-greet to make sure everyone is happy to proceed with a formal adoption.
Following the adoption, change of ownership paperwork will be completed, and proof of vaccination, microchipping, and desexing (if applicable, as indicated on the listing) will be provided.
All pets adopted through Home2Home will require an adoption contract to be signed and an adoption fee to be paid. The pet’s guardian will complete the adoption contract with you and provide a link to PetRescue’s secure payment portal for completing the adoption fee payment.
Home2Home currently operates a ‘pay what you choose’ system for cat adoption fees. This means that adopters will be able to choose an adoption fee amount that is suitable for them. All adoption fees are used to support PetRescue's life-saving programs, including Home2Home.
