Animals in our care

Tiny is a red roan, approx 13.3 hh.
She has been through a lot: starvation, abuse and neglect. Happily, she has blossomed in DCH's care, and will continue to gain trust in people in the right home.

Tiny has loads of personality! She is very smart and will learn quickly from a patient, kind and understanding handler. She can be a bit feisty in the paddock and is dominant with other horses and around food.

Tiny would suit an experienced home with someone who has time to do groundwork with her, she loves attention and being mentally challenged. 

Tiny has been in care for over a year. She requires an experienced home to further her education.

Meet Bianca, a charming and affectionate feline looking for her forever home! This lovely lady has had a remarkable journey, learning to trust and love after a slow start. Now, she is thriving with her foster carers and is ready to find a peaceful and loving environment to call her own.

Bianca is a sweet and loving cat who adores receiving selected pats and cuddles, but on her own terms. She appreciates gentle interactions and prefers to set the pace for affection. While she took a while to adjust to new experiences, her foster carers' patience and understanding have helped her become more confident and comfortable. Now, she sleeps peacefully in their beds every night, eagerly awaiting her nightly cuddles and pats.

In terms of temperament, Bianca is incredibly easygoing and undemanding. She is a low-maintenance cat that doesn't require constant attention. She would fit perfectly in a quiet home where she can unwind and enjoy a peaceful atmosphere. Due to her preference for tranquillity, it's best for Bianca to be in a household without younger children, as their exuberance and noise may overwhelm her.

Health-wise, Bianca has undergone two sets of dental surgeries to address a medical condition called Gingivostomatitis. Unfortunately, the treatment involved extracting most of her teeth. However, this procedure has had a tremendous positive impact on her overall well-being, allowing her true personality to shine. Now, free from the discomfort of her condition, Bianca is a happy and content cat, ready to embrace a fulfilling life with a loving family.

As an indoor-only cat, Bianca is accustomed to the safety and comforts of an indoor environment. She enjoys having a cozy spot to relax, observe her surroundings, and indulge in her favorite pastimes, such as sleeping on the bed.

If you are seeking a gentle and undemanding companion who will bring joy and tranquillity into your life, Bianca may be the perfect match for you. By providing her with a quiet and loving home, you will have the opportunity to witness her blossom into the affectionate and content cat she has become. Are you ready to open your heart and home to this special girl?

TEENIE TINY JESSICA:

Jessica has experienced continual problems with her breathing following a bout of cat flu - as a result, she has been a regular visitor to her vet, and had to undergo antibiotic treatment and a couple of operations in order to try to resolve the issues. Unfortunately, her treatment is, and will be, ongoing until she is all better. The vet feels she's as good as she's going to get in her current environment (with lots of other cats about) and thinks she may well improve in a new home with less cats - possibly a cat that is allergic to other cats?? Anyway, for now she does have noisy breathing and it may or may not improve but we'd love her to find a home with a caring person willing to give her that chance.

Little Jessica wandered into our lives and we have been blessed with having her share her time with us. There was no sign of her Mum or siblings when she came up to us. She was starving. She enjoys dry food the most, but to give her a rounded diet, we get her to eat wet food as well. She's a big eater for such a little cat and doesn't seem very particular about what brand of food she eats. Currently she's on kitten food and she should be kept on this diet until she reaches an adult age. She'll probably remain looking like a young cat because of her little size.

Jessica has the most pretty sweet face. It's so petite.

Jessica has long little legs, and is a very small cat. She has grown since she's been with us, but I don't think that she will ever reach the size of an average cat.

She loves playing with other cats in our household, and because she is so tiny she's able to win most games of hide and seek because she knows she can slip into areas that others have no chance of ever fitting into. She's definitely got that game down to a fine art.

Although not currently a lap cat, it's probably only because she always seems to be on the move. She purrs and purrs when patted or picked up.

She is used to large dogs around her and isn't fazed at all by their presence.

Toys like a stick with a ribbon tied on the end is the sort of toy she loves the best. Plus she's highly excited with trying to catch a lazer light that is moved across the floor.

Jessica comes with her own designer cat carrier. I don't think I'll ever have the privilege of fostering such a tiny cat again so we've decided we should send the little girl off to her new home with her own classy cat carrier.

Jessica is microchipped, desexed and up to date with her vaccinations.

The vet fees associated with her treatment are large, and getting larger. Any contribution towards these would be very welcome.
Thank you*Thanks to Lorraine for fully sponsoring Jessica's vet fees to date. Her fees to date have now been covered.*

Ellie was rescued from the pound when she was heavily pregnant. All of her puppies found fantastic new homes and now Ellie is looking for her new home as well. Due to her previous situation, she is scared of new people and new environments but once she has settled, she is extremely affectionate and loves to sit on your lap. Ellie is good with other dogs and loves to go for walks in quiet areas. Ellie requires a fully fenced backyard and is not suitable for a unit or apartment

Kovu is a shy and gentle soul who loves stretching out in sunbeams while watching the birds out the window. Big snuggly beds are his go-to spot for rest and relaxation, and he thoroughly enjoys a good chin scratch.

When it comes to food, Kovu is a big fan! His love for mealtime is evident by the spirited and adorable meows coming from this usually quiet cat. Despite his reserved nature, he has playful moments wrestling and chasing his younger foster brothers around or catching wiggly toys with us humans. Although as an adult cat, Kovu is past the super energetic kitten stage, making him a low-maintenance pet.

We have been working on building his confidence and he is now ready to find a new loving and patient family who will give him time to adjust until he is ready to provide you with endless love and devotion. His affectionate nature makes him an ideal companion for someone who appreciates and values peaceful moments together.

If you're looking for a soothing presence in your life, Kovu might be the perfect addition to your family.

He is currently using wood pellet cat litter and thrives on a balanced diet of Raw Meow and Ziwi Peak, he has been raised as an indoor cat and so will need to go into an INDOOR ONLY home.

Meet Scully! This sweet little kitty is looking for his forever home where he can live as an indoor-only cat. Scully is a bit independent and takes a while to warm up to new people, but once he does, he is a wonderful companion.

Scully sustained a major head scalp injury as a kitten, so he needs a calm and easy-going home where he can feel safe and secure. Despite his injury early in life, Scully is a curious and playful kitty who loves to explore his surroundings. He loves a good sleep during the day but will come running when it's food time and can hear food from anywhere in the house.

If you are looking for a companion who will keep you company while also respecting your personal space, Scully is the perfect cat for you. With a little patience and love, he will quickly become your best friend.

Scully has been desexed and is current on all his vaccinations. If you think you could provide Scully with the loving and patient home he needs, please consider adopting him today!

Located in Acacia Gardens near Parklea.

Murphy is a handsome young cat, he came into care after being found in a school yard with his siblings at the young age of 7 weeks.
He is a nervous boy and would be best suited to a home where he will be the only cat where he can bond with his new family. He is in care with 2 other cats who demand cuddles and attention, this means Murphy just stays at arms length as he is nervous.
Murphy loves to play and sleep with his 2 foster cats, he loves to sit at the door and watch the world go by.
Murphy is happy to come and sit on the lounge beside you when the other cats are not around but as soon as they come up for cuddles he leaves them to it, this is why I think he deserves a home of his own where he won’t have to compete for attention
