Wallaby's Story

Wallaby has officially graduated to free roam of the house, and his goofy little personality is really starting to shine. He loves kisses, belly rubs, and his heated blanket. One of his favorite activities is keeping his foster mom company while she folds laundry, then promptly claiming the warm pile for himself. He's a genuine sweetheart, and it's been so nice to see him relax and let his silly side out.<br/><br/>At around a year old, Wallaby has been through a pretty big change in a short amount of time. His family was deported, leaving him and his brother Wombat without anyone to care for them. Due to a language barrier between their family and the person who took them in, we have very little information about their previous life.<br/><br/>Wallaby is still adjusting to everything he's been through, so he'll need a patient adopter who can give him a few days or weeks to settle in and feel at home. He's already showing us what a loving, affectionate little guy he is once he feels safe, and we think there's plenty more personality to discover.<br/><br/>Wallaby does not have to be adopted with Wombat, although they can certainly be considered together. He is fully vetted and FeLV/FIV negative.

Despurate House Cats's Adoption Policy
The application process for adopting from our cat rescue includes several important steps: Application Form on Website: You must fill out an application form available on the rescue's website. This form will ask for your personal details, your home environment, and other relevant information about your lifestyle and preferences to help match you with a suitable cat. Vet Reference: You are required to provide a reference from your veterinarian. This helps the rescue ensure you have a history of responsible pet ownership and good veterinary care for your previous or current pets. Landlord Reference (if leasing): If you rent your home, you will need to provide a reference from your landlord. This confirms that you have permission to have a cat in your rental property and ensures that the living conditions are suitable for adopting a pet. Home Visit: As part of the adoption process, a home visit will be conducted. A representative from the rescue will visit your home to ensure it’s a safe and appropriate environment for a cat. This visit will also include meeting your current pets to assess if they will get along with the new cat. The rescue wants to ensure that the new addition to your family will be compatible with your existing pets and that everyone will feel comfortable and safe. Once all these steps are completed and reviewed, the rescue will make a decision about your application.
