About Missy
Missy is a very energetic,and playful little girl. She is a great small, very friendly and happy dog. Missy is okay with children, loves to play with cats and small dogs.
Missy is 3/4 pug and 1/4 Jack Russell (we guestimate by looking at her) and is quite robust for a small breed. She is in good health, and has the usual heavy breathing of the pug breed.
Missy needs to have an owner who doesn't work and who can spend plenty of time with her. A retired couple or single person would be ideal and someone who works from home.
A very lovable little girl, Missy will make a wonderful family pet. She will require only a light brush every few days to keep her coat looking tip-top and she really enjoys her warm bath.
Adoption details
The first step is to phone (preferred ) or email Port Macquarie Animal Welfare Service for assessment regarding prospective ownership and pet suitability.
Adoption Application forms must be completed and include a vet reference and photos of yards and fencing. A property inspection will be carried out on properties in the Port Macquarie area.
New dog owners must have a fully secure, fenced yard offering protection from all types of weather, subject to approval by PMAWS.
A 2 week trial period commences on the day of adoption.
All PMAWS dogs & cats are desexed, vaccinated, heart & intestinal wormed, flea & tick treated.
Introducing a Kitten/Cat into a new home (especially where either a dog or cat already lives) can be a difficult challenge. It requires patience, perseverance and supervision.
Once your new kitten/cat arrives home, it should be made to feel safe in its own room - we call this the "sanctuary". \ No other cat or dog should be allowed into this room. The kitten/cat will need bedding, food, water, a view out of a window and somewhere to hide. A good idea in dog and cat families is also a 2 metre tall scratching post, where a kitten/cat can retreat if it needs to.
Keep the kitten/cat in a room for the first few days, then, gradually, using a series of wooden chocks (or similar), open the door slightly to allow paws and noses to meet. It can then be opened further to allow the kitten/cat in and out, but not the older cat or dog in. We recommend that this should be continued for 14 days.
PMAWS urges all owners to keep their cats indoors.
