Adoption Process

Thank you for submitting an Expression of Interest (EOI) form for this rescue pet! The pet’s Case Manager and Foster Carer will review your EOI and then respond to you as soon as possible. If it sounds like you and the foster pet are a good match, we will arrange a no-obligation meet and greet for you. At this meeting you get the opportunity to spend some time with the animal, then we ask you to take some time to think about it afterwards and let the Case Manager know your feelings the next day. If you want to go ahead with an adoption, and FFAR think that you would make a good match, we offer a four-week trial, and the services of our behaviourist at no cost to you during that time, should you have any issues. If the adoption doesn't work out for any reason, we will take your rescue pet back for a full refund within those four weeks; we will also take your adopted animal back at any point during their lifetime lifetime should you become unable to care for them. A bit like a no-risk guarantee! We want each adoption to go swimmingly for both the adopter and animal and never want these special four-leggeds to be homeless again.

Calvin Kitten ADOPTED

Breed: Dsh
Age: 4 years old
Colour: Ginger Tabby
Gender: Male

Calvin is a gorgeous ginger tabby kitten with white patches on his face, neck, and paws. He is a cuddly kitty, who shows affection by curling up on your chest or shoulder. Calvin is a vocal cat and will meow to say hi or ask for more pets. He loves playing with his toys and wrestling with his brother, Hobbes. Calvin & Hobbes would love to be adopted together, however, they can be adopted separately. Adopting a bonded pair has lots of positives! Such as, having a companion to play and cuddle with, reducing boredom and anxiety. Adopting a bonded pair can be especially great for adopters that work full-time, taking away the stresses of leaving a loved pet at home alone, and knowing they will have company during the working day. You can view Hobbes' profile here: https://www.petrescue.com.au/listings/775786 Please note: Calvin has not yet been desexed or microchipped, however this will be happening very soon and we currently invite expressions of interest from potential adopters. If you have any questions in regards to Calvin (& Hobbes) feel free to contact us, and we will get back to you.
