Hi everyone, my name is Lucky Socks
Hi, my name is Lucky Socks and I’m a super affectionate fellow waiting for a fun loving, biscuit making home with a cat-safe outdoor area so I can live my best life!
I may be a bit quiet to start but I’m just sussing out where the best vantage point is as I LOVE watching birds and putting my nose to the fresh air (I can get a bit demanding if I don’t get my outdoor time).
I’m happy to be on my own throughout the day (I love a good nap), but you best believe that once you are home, I’m ready to make biscuits and head bop you with a bigggg helping of purrs, and I would never turn down a good brushing (with some cheeky treats too please).
I love playing Chasey and hiding in closets, so if you have little humans in your family who like to play – I’m the cat for you!

Adopting an animal
Adopting an animal is a rewarding experience that will last a lifetime. But before you adopt a pet please take some time to consider the commitment you are about to make. Sometimes the excitement of pet ownership can overshadow factors that should be considered before adoption.
Adopting a shelter pet is a lifelong decision that will have a major impact to your normal, everyday life. Please remember that a cat or dog can live for up to 20 years and they will rely only on you for their wellbeing for their entire life.
- Do I have time to exercise the dog every day?
- Do I have time for puppy pre-school and time to socialise a puppy?
- Do I have at least an hour every day to spend with my cat?
- Do I have time for obedience training?
- If renting, does the landlord permit pets?
- Is the backyard big enough and is the fencing secure?
- Does the whole family want a pet?
- Will the pet be allowed inside?
- Will I have to move interstate or overseas in the foreseeable future?
- Will I have to move to another rental property where the landlord may not allow pets.
Pets are a lifelong monetary commitment, you will need to factor in:
- Weekly animal food bills and necessities
- Yearly council registration
- Monthly medications like heart worm/intestinal worm and flea treatments
- Annual vet visits for vaccinations and check ups
- Unexpected vet bills due to accidents or medical conditions
- Ongoing grooming
- Boarding fees for human holidays
- Enrichment like training, toys etc
