🧡🌱 MEET PEPPERMINT 🌱🧡

Nature
Hi everyone, my name is Peppermint! I was born in foster care after my Mama was rescued by the Angels whilst pregnant with me and my siblings. I can’t wait to find my special fur-ever home and become part of your family!

I should let you know, I’m a bit of a wobbly boy. My balance isn’t the best but I am living my best life being independent and very capable of all usual cat things. My Foster Mum says I have the cutest waddle walk ever and I zoom around the house all the time. I may fall over sometimes when I run but I get right back up again! I’m also a very smoochy and affectionate boy. I jump onto my Foster Mum’s lap and give her a good groom by licking her hand and arms and then smooshing my head into them for a good scratch.

Companions (Children, Cats & Dogs)
I haven’t been around children before. I think only older kids would be okay so they can be gentle with me.

I have met the resident cats and I love them! I give them smooches and we like to play chasey. I’m also in foster care with my sister Chai and we love to play together. I haven’t met dogs before but may be okay with a slow introduction to a calm, cat-savvy pooch.

Likes / Dislikes
I love playtime and playing chasey with other kitties. I also love pats, food, and any kind of toys. My soft comfy bed is my favourite place to hang out after a big zoomie session and I will lay on my back snoozing away.

I don’t have many dislikes but I may get shy when I first meet a new person. Don’t worry though, I’ll warm up in no time!

My PURR-fect home would be with a family or person who will shower me with love and affection and doesn’t mind me giving their hands a good lick! I’d enjoy a home with another kitty friend but it’s not essential if you’re around to give me lots of love for most of the day. I’d also need an indoor only home, I was born in care and I’d definitely prefer to stay safe inside due to my wobbliness and avoid the scary outside world.

8178 - Peppermint
Gender: Male
Breed: Domestic Short Hair
Colour: Ginger
DOB: 26/09/2022
Adoption Fee: $200

*Peppermint’s adoption fee includes vet check, sterilisation, vaccination, microchip, flea and worm treatment

Medical Notes: Peppermint was exposed to cat flu, which is a respiratory infection. He did not show symptoms and was given the all clear by the vet.

Peppermint likely has cerebellar hypoplasia where his cerebellum did not develop fully, and as a result he has some coordination issues. When he requires more concentration for tasks his condition gets more noticeable, so things like eating and cleaning require some assistance. The vet predicts his symptoms will not get any worse, and as he gets older he will learn to cope with them better.

🐾Perth Rescue Angels recommends Advantage and Advocate from Elanco Animal Health for all of your new furry family members’ flea and worming needs.
