About ♥Shadow♥️ Dog & Child friendly!
♥Shadow♥️ Dog & Child friendly!
Meet gorgeous little character, Shadow, AKA your new best friend ♥️ Spending time with this gorgeous little girl will have you full of smiles; her infectious personality is bound to light up every day you have with her!
This sweet, cheeky girl is great with small humans who may hold animals a bit awkwardly due to age, she'll tolerate this without a flinch. And she's always ready to chase a ball or play with a wand toy so will keep your kids entertained for hours, followed by happily falling asleep in their arms or bed :)
Shadow has a heart of gold and an adventurous spirit. She's the perfect cat for a family with kids, or someone who's home alot and looking for a companion. She's both independent and full of snuggles so is never needy or annoying but will be by your side when you need her most.
And if you have a dog, all the better! Shadow loves dogs and is amazing with them - please see the video in this profile of her making 'bickies' on her canine friend in foster care! However in her past she was bullied by other cats so is not suitable to live with an existing cat.
She loves to explore her environment, her curious nature is matched only by her affectionate personality - she's the perfect mix of affection, playfulness, and keeping herself busy investigating things, be it a fly on the wall or a shelf she hasn't patrolled in a few days. She loves a smooch, and will fall asleep in your arms as well as a lot of other hilarious places :D
Shadow is a fantastic catch! Please text her case manager, Jo on 0419 124 437 to find out if your home and lifestyle are a match for this awesome girl <3

Being adventurous, Shadow would 100% wander from her home very quickly if let outside, and being black she has substantially more risk of being hit by a car.
However these days cars are not the only risk to cats outside their own property - cat hating neighbours are common and have been known to trap owned cats and send them to the pound, causing owners to need to pay reclaim fees and often wandering cat fines (which unfortunately means some cats are never reclaimed and need to be rehomed by the pound or, sadly, euthanised due to limited space). Cats in front yards are also often killed by dogs being walked past, we hear about this far too often in rescue and it's heartbreaking. Then there's local Tom cats and other dominant cats potentially bullying your furbaby and causing injury or passing on disease.
Cats can jump all kinds of fences, and will, it only takes a split second for your cat to disappear over a fence. Please don't assume your newly adopted furbaby won't jump a fence because your previous cat didn't, or because your new cat is older, more timid, less active etc - all cats are curious and will scale a fence to view their environment from a high point if given the chance.
Do right by your new furbaby, keep them safe inside 💕

Adoption details
Sunny Days is a registered charity, foster care network and private shelter, focusing on the rescue, rehab and rehoming of cats who've never had experience with humans, and of dogs who may not have been given a chance by others. You can support us by clicking the pink DONATE button on this page or further options at the bottom of this section. Thankyou!
💕 ABOUT OUR WORK WITH CATS:
We run a donation funded shelter in semi-rural Avalon, that was previously used for dog breeding. When we took ownership of the property, our hard working volunteers spent many months transforming the building into a bright and colourful environment featuring 7 large, fully enclosed pens capable of housing 8 wild-born cats. We take in full cat colonies, pregnant and nursing mothers, ophan kittens, FIV positive cats, and sick or injured cats. Cats are humanely trapped after being identified as un-owned; we don't take in domesticated cats and have extensive processes to ensure cats trapped are true strays as opposed to owned. We don't give cats deadlines to be socialised by or they'll be euthanised, we provide sanctuary for them for as long as they need.
💕 ABOUT OUR WORK WITH DOGS:
We take in dogs from community surrenders, owned arranged euthanasia's which vets have intervened on, and greyhounds retired from or not suitable for racing. Most of our dogs are with us for extended periods to ensure we know them really well before putting them up for adoption, and have been assessed by professional dog trainers if not worked with extensively. We provide full discretion with adopters about dogs' health and behaviour and ongoing support to integrate adopted dogs into new homes, families and lifestyles. The success and longevity of our dogs' adoptions is very important to us.
💕 CAN YOU HELP US?
As a small team without government or corporate funding, our services are in constant demand and our resources stretched. You can donate directly to the animal in this profile by clicking the pink DONATE button on this page, or contact us if you'd like to sponsor a street cat's rehab and housing which usually takes one year minimum but more often longer.
