Adopted

Hi everyone, my name is Melina & Marlo

Meet Melina and Marlo, a devoted mother and son duo looking for a loving home where they can stay together. Melina is a sweet-natured cat with a gentle soul. Though she may be a little shy at first, with patience and quiet affection, she warms up beautifully and shows her loving side. She’s calm, observant, and has done a wonderful job raising her playful kitten.

Marlo, at just four months old, is full of energy and curiosity. He’s the life of the party—always exploring, playing, and making people laugh with his kitten antics. His playful confidence is the perfect complement to Melina’s gentle presence, and the bond they share is heartwarming to see.

They would thrive in a safe, indoor home where Melina can continue to feel secure and Marlo has space to play and grow. If you’re looking for the best of both worlds—a quiet, loving companion and a lively little entertainer—Melina and Marlo are ready to fill your home with affection, fun, and the joy of family.

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
