About Spiro Del Rio - is checking out his new home
Victorian Dog Rescue has a six-week full refund policy and a lifetime takeback guarantee that includes 50 per cent of the adoption fee refunded.
Spiro is a sweet little boy with giant paws and a possum tail. He exudes enthusiasm and approaches everything he does with a level of intensity beyond imagination.
Spiro is independent of his humans for much of the day - taking himself off to find things that amuse him. A few of his favourite activities include unravelling every roll of toilet paper he can find, opening cupboard doors, opening packets of cat treats or even litter. But not all of his busy time activities involve mischief, he loves to chase ribbons, climb his scratching tower and carry little toys around the house too. After playing hard, Spiro delights in some quiet time out in his enclosure. A patient observer he sits and just watches the world go by.
When the time comes for a cuddle, Spiro will let you know! He squeaks and comes madly running to find you, just bursting with love! He purrs and flops all over you, rubbing his face against you like crazy. Spiro's affection when he says it's cuddle time is second to none!
Spiro would love to find someone who spends time on the computer. One of his great joys in life is observing people typing. He has his own little blanket up on the desk and likes to lie there quietly, watching and napping and just occasionally reaching a little paw out to remind you he's there and needs a pat.
Spiro is a very well socialised kitten who loves to spend time with both his feline and canine pals. He tries to show love and play with them all equally but it's obvious that his favourite playmate and cuddle buddy is his brother, Leo.
Although Spiro has a big, bold personality, he saves it just for his special people. He is shy around new people and young children but to be able to share his love is a special treat worth being patient for.

Adoption details
We are a community fostercare network, not a shelter, and our dogs and cats are cared for in private homes. Note that we are very careful where we rehome our dogs and cats and we have an intensive process. If you want a quick turnaround we are not the group for you. If you seem like a good match for the dog of your choice we will organise a telephone chat, a meet and greet and a property check. We offer a six-week full refund, free assistance for six weeks for any issues, and a lifetime takeback policy with a fifty percent refund of the adoption fee, and of course an invitation to our adopters’ Christmas party.
We care for our dogs and cats and we want you to as well. We know that genuine applicants have no trouble with this process and understand that if we refuse you a dog or cat, it is because you are not the best match for that pet.
Our commitment to the dogs and cats in our care is total and we treat each one as if we are passing on a family pet. This may not suit you so we point out that there are equally great dogs and cats available in pounds, shelters and with other rescue groups.
