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.

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

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

Fi is a major sweetheart who loves to be near you throughout the day and runs to the door to greet you when you come home. She has such an affectionate personality, and will be very keen to keep your feet warm sleeping on the bottom of your bed. She also loves to sit next to you on the kitchen stool whilst you eat and watch television. She equally loves alone time sunbathing and getting into mischief when the mood strikes.

Fi is such a lovely companion who is best suited to a family that has experience with cats. She is desexed and fully vaccinated, and is not suited to live with other cats, dogs, or young children. She is fully litter trained and doesn’t sharpen her claws on furniture. She came into our care as a young mum with 5 kittens.

Now her family are grown up and have found their homes, it's time for Fifi to be rewarded as an excellent mumma to find her own home too.

Fiona is now available to meet and adopt in Crows Nest, Call Now!

Valentine is Desexed and fully Vaccinated (until March 2025) and very ready to find her Forever Home.
You and your family are very welcome to arrange a meeting to see if Val is your girl!

The Ginger Ninja's...Valentine and her sister Veronica came into DCH care from a rural property when they were scared, hungry 3-4 month old kittens, in 2023.

Veronica has now been adopted and, although Valentine did have a previous adoption & return, it was because she was not the best fit. It appears that Valentine would prefer a big house to explore, possibly with other animals and even safe outside access included!

Valentine is a very graceful and curious young lady who might be suited to an older family or to be company for another cat or cat-safe dog. Val is affectionate but not a lap cat, although she will sit and keep you company, and keep you entertained with her antics.

Valentine dislikes being carried around and picked up a lot and also being restrained. However, pats, chin scratches, crunchy treats, and of course a sunny windowsill are still her favorites! Flying insects will keep her occupied for hours, plus she does love a laser light - her hunting instincts are very strong!

The $160 adoption fee includes:

So she lives her best and longest life, Valentine must also be an INDOOR ONLY cat (but of course this can include access to a secure outdoor catio or enclosure).

Please use the "Send enquiry email" link below, if you have any questions or if you are interested in meeting Valentine. Just include in your email, whether you’ve owned cats before, and why you’re genuinely interested in adopting Valentine.

PLEASE NOTE: I no longer receive phone calls/messages from unknown mobiles, but I will contact you as soon as I receive your email enquiry.

Nala has come into care after being found in a park with her 7 puppies in a box. She is a sweet girl that has been easy going while in care and a great mum to her puppies. Nala will sit for a treat when asked and has been an easy going girl to have around.

Nala loves going for walks, she doesn't pull on the lead and would be suited to someone who is retired, who would love a devoted companion and can spend lots of time with her

Nala loves toys and when called has to find a toy to bring to you. If you can give Nala the home she deserves full of love and happiness then please come and meet her.
