About Cyril
Meet Cyril, a very handsome little Jack Russell that came to us from a local pound. We do not know what circumstances led him to being in the pound, only that no-one came to collect him.
We would suggest that he could be 9 to 10 years of age, although he doesn't look it and he certainly doesn't act it!
Cyril is NOT suited to being around children (certainly none under the age of 12-14) as he does not handle them well. It could be that he belonged on a property as he was not de-sexed or micro-chipped when we picked him up.
He needs to be the only dog in the family - he likes all the attention for himself and has probably not had other dogs around him. He enjoys travelling in the car and is well behaved. He walks well on lead but is quite head strong and has a powerful little body.
His ideal new owner would be a retired gentleman looking for a faithful companion and friend. He is happy to be an outside dog but would need good shelter and a sturdy kennel. He would require good fencing (such as colourbond) to keep him contained in his yard.
Cyril deserves to find his forever home - he is a great little dog - with plenty of energy and years ahead of him.
If you would like more information on Cyril, please email PMAWS or contact Wendy on 6584 7027.
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, microchipped, 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.
