Hi everyone, my name is Joey

Are you a friendly, cat savvy person? Joey is looking for someone that is willing to be a little patient while he gets to know them, but once he does, he will have many head butts and smooches to give.

Joey has only every really known a life indoors and would like to keep it that way, he also has never been with another animal before and doesn’t seem to take kindly to them!

Food definitely grabs his attention, especially yummy treats like tuna paste, which are sure to earn you friendship points.

Joey thrives in a calm and predictable environment with mature, adult only, cat-savvy humans who understand that his affection comes with strings attached.

If you’re looking for a cat that’s as full of attitude as he is of love (on his terms), then Joey is the perfect match for you. But remember, when he swipes, it’s not a sign of aggression—it’s his way of saying, “I’m the boss around here!”

Head down to the Campbellfield adoption center if you’d like to meet Joey or submit an expression of interest below!

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
