About John & Sammy
John (10yo) and Sammy (13yo) are a bonded pair who adore and rely on each other. John stresses without Sammy, he does not need to be with Sammy every minute but knowing Sammy is near keeps him calm and content. They Sleep together but are happy to do their own thing during the day.
Sammy is the more outgoing and confident of the pair, he will seek out your attention where as John will sit back and watch hesitantly until he decides what he wants to do.
They would love a quiet retirement home where they can laze away the days without children or canines. An indoor only home as they are both FIV+ and at their age they deserve an indoor only home where they are safe and comfortable.
About FIV in Cats –FIV cats live many years without any health problems. FIV cannot be transmitted to humans, dogs or other pets. FIV can only be transmitted to other cats through deep blood-drawing bite wounds. Being indoors only and having access to a cat run will reduce any possibility of him being attacked or fighting with another cat.

Adoption details
Simply note the ID number and the cats name and visit our hostel at 200 Elder Street in Greensborough. Alternatively you can call the hostel on 8457 6500. We are currently open Mon-Fri 10am-4pm / Sat-Sun 10am-3pm.
You should bring proof of your current address and preferably photo identification such as your driving license. You can only adopt a cat for yourself we do not allow animals to leave with third parties. If you are wishing to adopt a cat as a present for someone, bring them with you as cats are individuals and bond with different people in different ways, the cat you may choose, may not choose your friend! It is also important to allocate time for adoption and we recommend you allow at least a couple of hours to get to know the cat and do the necessary paperwork.
When you visit you will get to meet the cat and as this is a very important decision for both you and the cat you choose we will want to ensure the two of you are compatible and that you understand what will be involved in taking the cat into your home.
We will want to be satisfied that you are prepared to be a responsible pet owner. Responsible pet owners at the most basic level, have their pets registered, micro-chipped and de-sexed unless they are registered breeders. They also understand the issues involved in being able to properly care and take responsibility for the welfare of their pets. Most Councils in Victoria have limits on the numbers of cats you may own without a permit. It is important to check with your Council if you already own the limit and obtain a permit for the extra cat before adoption. We will require to see your permit.
We will answer any questions you have regarding cat care and help you to obtain any support you may need.
