About Aurora - I Walk on Lead!
Aurora is a sociable, chatty young cat who is dog friendly. Her foster carers are visited on a regular basis by their daughter and granddaughter who bring their 9 year old Blue Heeler over for visits and play time with Aurora. Although Aurora has had frequent exposure to dogs, she is not really used to other cats however with her outgoing nature, her carers are confident that Aurora would soon be accustomed to any new friend her furever home has to play with.
Aurora loves to play games and is happy to play by herself however at times likes her human companions to play with her by hitting the ball to them and waiting for them to hit it back to her. Bouncy balls, pieces of packing tape and her tail J are the toys of choice. She is also very cheeky with a great sense of humour especially when she tells her foster carers that the ball is under the fridge, only for her foster carers to be presented with the missing ball by Aurora but only after they have bent down trying to get the ball out from under the fridge.
Although Aurora is an active cat at 16-18 months of age she also enjoys sitting on her foster mums knee for hours, this little fur ball of joy loves the company of people and just adores children!!
Since the first week of being in her foster carers home she has had no accidents and has taken exceptional well to using her kitty litter tray. Aurora has also shown her ability to be trained by walking on a lead when taken outside to explore the garden, as seen in the photos provided. Aurora has learnt the word no and what it means, so when getting into mischief her carers usually only have to tell Aurora no once, and to her credit will generally stop.
Because of Aurora’s diverse interaction with people of all ages and dogs she would be suited to a family or couple that has time for her as she doesn’t like being left all day every day and will tell you so – real spunk this one has. Her carers think a family with school age children or a retired couple would be the best environment for Aurora.
Note: Aurora is gluten intolerant and as such cannot eat cat biscuits. Her foster carer currently gives Aurora a diet of raw minced chicken carcasses. This is available from your local butchers and the chicken carcasses are very cheap, at a cost of about $2.20 per kilo; which feeds Aurora for 10 day. So although Aurora has this dietary requirement there are no expensive outlays to keep Aurora happy and healthy!. Tin food is acceptable however her new furever home would have to ensure the brand they choose is wheat product free.
So our adorable tabby Aurora – with her big expressive yellow eyes has had a rough start to life, coming from the regional pound with her kittens, barely more than a kitten herself!! Now that Aurora’s kittens are weaned, we would love her to find some furever companions to call her own. If you feel you are the one and only owner for this special little girl please fill in an adoption application today or enquire through BFPR about meting Aurora in person; she is currently fostered in the Wagga Wagga area by an older couple.
Medical notes
Aurora is gluten-intolerant and thus requires a grain-free diet of meats or fish such as pet mince or tinned tuna.
