About Shadow STA006182
PERMANENT FOSTER CARER
Shadow is a beautiful gentleman with a heart of gold who is a no fuss guy, he just wants to chill and enjoy life. He is aptly named, he will be wherever you are, and happily sit next to you, but cuddles and laps are not his thing. He really does loves his pats, and will lie and rollover to get more attention or lie over your puzzles and knock the pieces off!
If you really want to win him over, food and brushes are a must! He will happily enjoy a brush for as long as you will do it for!
Shadow has diabetes, but is controlled with twice daily insulin shots, and will still need regular veterinary monitoring to make sure it stays under control. As a result of his diabetes, he has an unusual walk, and doesn’t like to jump on high surfaces.
Due to his diabetes he is not suitable for adoption, so we are looking for a permanent foster home for him to relax safely and comfortably for the rest of his beautiful life. We will supply all of his needs, you will supply a safe indoor only home with plenty of love and security.
Our preference would be that he remains local as you will need to be available to bring him into our Veterinary Clinic as required.

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 10am-4pm Mon-Thur 10am-4pm / Fri 10am-6pm / 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.
