About Winter rsua015694
Meet Winter, a beautiful young lady with a gorgeous face, an irresistibly cute pink nose and a gentle soul just waiting for her happily ever after. Through absolutely no fault of her own, Winter has found herself back in our care twice, and we're determined that this time it will be third time lucky! This gorgeous girl deserves a forever home where she can finally put down her paws, feel safe and know that she is loved.
Winter is quite a shy little lady who finds meeting new people and exploring unfamiliar surroundings a little overwhelming. She's naturally curious and wants to investigate the world around her, but sometimes her confidence doesn't quite match her curiosity! She will need a special safe place in her new home where she can retreat whenever things feel a little too much. With time, patience and gentle encouragement, Winter will gradually learn to trust her new surroundings and let her lovely personality shine. One thing that certainly brings out her playful side is a good play session, which is a wonderful way to help build her confidence and win her heart.
Winter's ideal forever home will be quiet, calm and predictable, without children or dogs, as loud noises and busy households are simply not her cup of tea. She needs a patient, understanding person who will let her settle at her own pace, respect her need for personal space and celebrate the little steps forward. With her adorable pink nose, Winter must also live 100% indoors to protect her delicate skin from potential sun damage.
Winter isn't asking for much, just a peaceful home, a little patience, plenty of playtime and someone who will love her for the beautiful, sensitive girl she is. She's had a couple of false starts on her journey to finding forever, but we're hoping the next chapter will be the one where she finally gets her happily ever after. Could you be Winter's third time lucky?

If you are wishing to adopt a cat as a present for someone, bring them with you as cats are individuals and bond with different people in different ways, the cat you may choose, may not choose your friend!

Responsible pet owners at the most basic level, have their pets registered, micro-chipped and de-sexed unless they are registered breeders. They also understand the issues involved in being able to properly care and take responsibility for the welfare of their pets. Most Councils in Victoria have limits on the numbers of cats you may own without a permit. It is important to check with your Council if you already own the limit and obtain a permit for the extra cat before adoption. We will require to see your permit.
