About Tangerine STA010736
Tangerine is a beautiful girl with a lot of love to give. She would do best in a laid-back home environment with adults and/or older children. She is very playful and would enjoy a friendly cat friend to spend her time with.
From her Foster Home –
Tangerine loves her scratch pad, toy mice and ping pong balls. She also enjoys playing with a wand toy, or her foster siblings (two adult cats). She’s quite food motivated and really enjoys Greenies and Temptation treats (any flavour). Once she trusts you Tangerine can be quite affectionate. She tolerates being picked up, but prefers all 4 paws on the ground. She loves gentle cheek and chin scratches.
It took Tangerine a couple weeks to settle in, but once she did her sweet nature and affectionate personality really started to shine. She’s very gentle, playful, and makes the cutest little chirps and trills when she approaches for pats or food. We would recommend starting Tangerine off in a small quiet space with all her amenities to get her settled initially, and a slow introduction to any household pets. She is most affectionate when she can interact on her terms.
If you would like more information about Tangerine or wish to meet her please contact our Foster Care Co-Ordinator’s -Email foster@catprotection.com.au or Phone 0400 444 734.

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.
