Hi everyone, my name is Portia
Portia is a beautiful fluffy ginger girl with a heart as soft as her coat. This sweet kitten is incredibly affectionate and loves being close to her people. Whether she’s curling up beside you for a nap or gently asking for pats, Portia’s favourite place is wherever the cuddles are.
She has a gentle, loving nature and quickly wins over everyone she meets with her warm personality and adorable fluffy charm. Portia enjoys playtime like any kitten, but she truly shines when she’s snuggled up, purring contentedly and soaking up attention.
Portia would thrive in a home where she can get plenty of love, affection, and cosy spots to curl up in. If you’re looking for a loyal little companion who will happily keep you company and brighten your days, Portia might just be the perfect match.

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
