About Aro
714+ days spent waiting for his perfect home.
Aro is currently the shelter's longest resident, and it's time this sweet boy finally gets the loving home he deserves. In the time he has been with us, approximately 400 animals will have come and gone from the shelter, finding their forever homes while Aro still waits. It simply breaks our hearts to think about.
We absolutely adore this boy - his sweet and cheeky personality has captured all our hearts, and we're desperate to see him settled into a quiet, caring home of his own. Aro is an affectionate and gentle-natured cat who enjoys some quiet pats and to curl up on your knee for a cuddle. He is quite social with people he knows, and likes to show off his more adventurous side by climbing up to perch on your shoulder or playing with his favourite toys.
When meeting new people, he can become a little bit reserved, which unfortunately means that he is often overlooked for other cats who appear more confident and affectionate right off the bat.
As if that wasn't enough of a challenge to win adopters over, during his time with us, we have also discovered that poor Aro has been struggling with inflammatory bowel disease. To keep him happy and comfortable, he unfortunately requires medication and a special diet, which often earns Aro a big NO from adopters before they've even met him.
Aro can be hit and miss with other cats, so will likely do better as a single cat, but may be able to live with a calm, cat-savvy dog.
If you have a quiet home and a big heart, Aro might just be your perfect match. Please help us give him the second chance he's been waiting so patiently for.
If you would like to meet sweet Aro, please give us a call on 9722 1265 to make an appointment.
Medical notes
Inflammatory Bowel Disease - Daily medication and special diet.
