Flint (C2026)

My brother Flash and I come from the streets of Hedland. We were chased by dogs and chased by cars, and there were so many loud noises out there it sent us into fear. We could not learn to play for we were always on guard: who’s coming towards us next? Human or animal we couldn't tell the difference--we hid in every possible place and survived one day at a time .

Our outcome is fortuitous, or was it always our destiny to end up at SAFE Karratha? At first we were terrified and hid at every sound. When the dogs barked, we hissed, spat and ran.

A few days later we found the room of solace: Den’s Den. We are now allowed to run free and enjoy our play. Sleeping is the best, as we can fully relax on the lounge, bed, cat tree and out in the cat run if we choose.

We are living and learning all about life from the 7 adult cats here at SAFE HQ. My brother and I can run with no fear of being chased by animal or human. We can play and learn skills that we need to make our humans proud to have us as their pets.
