About Tabby

Meet the beautiful Tabby!

Tabby came into care with her sister Lia, and took a while to learn that she could trust humans. She has come a long way since then but can still be a bit wary, so she appreciates people being slow and gentle with her. She doesn’t like to be picked up, so she would love a home that respects her wishes to keep all four paws on the ground. 

Tabby loves a nice head rub and will purr uncontrollably in appreciation for them! She also loves meal time and getting treats from her humans!

This sweet kitten loves meal time and thoroughly enjoys being brushed – she’ll show you just how much with her endless purrs. 

Tabby requires a slow introduction to her new space and family, and would love it if she could be adopted with her sister Lia for some extra moral support! Otherwise, another friendly, confident feline in the same household would allow Tabby’s own confidence to flourish. Gentle dogs would also be okay with a slow introduction. Tabby is still learning that kids are her friends, and will need them to respect her space. 

If you can offer Tabby a quiet home filled with love, patience and compassion while she navigates her new household, she will reward you with endless purrs and entertainment!

Tips for Finding the Perfect Match

Cats and Dogs can live up to 20 years, so it’s really important that you select a pet that is going to fit with your personality, household dynamics, and future plans. 

Lifestyle Compatability

Are you looking for a pet that is full of energy and playful? Or would you prefer a pet that is content to hang with you around the house all day, and nap on your lap while you watch TV or read a book?

Would you have the time and calm environment needed to nurture a shy, or fearful pet and help build back their confidence and zest for life? Or, would you prefer a pet that is outgoing or independent and that would slot perfectly into a busy home? It’s also important to consider the personality and temperament of any existing pets. How will they respond to a new addition to the family, and how will you manage the integration?

Housing and Council Regulations

The regulations for pet ownership differ between councils, this includes the requirement for registration, curfews for cats, and on/off leash walking for dogs. These are often easily found on each council website.

if you are renting, it’s vital that you consult with your landlord and secure their permission before applying for adoption.

Costs associated with owning a pet

All OAAT pets are vaccinated, desexed and microchipped prior to adoption.   They will also be up to date with all worming and flea treatments.  This is all covered in the adoption fees (which generally range from $200 – $900 depending on the type and age of the animal).
