Hi everyone, my name is Truffle
Truffle is a young kitten with a gentle heart and a sweet, curious nature. While she can be a little shy when meeting new people or exploring unfamiliar places, it doesn’t take long for her curiosity to shine through.
Once Truffle feels safe, you’ll discover a playful little companion who loves to explore, watch the world around her, and quietly investigate everything that catches her eye. She enjoys gentle attention and is sure to grow in confidence with a patient family who will let her settle in at her own pace.
Truffle is looking for a loving forever home where she can continue to blossom. With a little time and plenty of kindness, this sweet girl will reward you with quiet companionship, playful moments, and lots of love.

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
