Hi everyone, my name is Hendrix
Hendrix is a shy but incredibly sweet cat who blossoms with patience and kindness. Once he feels safe, he leans into gentle pats and shows his affectionate side in quiet, tender ways. He’s the kind of companion who forms deep bonds with the people he trusts, offering soft purrs and peaceful company.
Hendrix would thrive in a calm, adult-only home where he can settle at his own pace without loud noises or sudden changes. A quiet environment will help him build confidence and continue to come out of his shell, revealing the loving cat he truly is.
Hendrix prefers to be the only feline in the home please!
If you’re searching for a gentle companion who will reward your patience with heartfelt affection, Hendrix may be the perfect match. He’s ready for a peaceful home where he can feel safe, loved, and understood.

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
