DSH - male
Kovu and his sister Kiara were rescued from Campbelltown Pound after they were handed in at about 4 weeks old.
Even from such a young age, they have shown confidence and affection towards every person and animal they meet!
Kovu has a smaller miaow than his sister but is just as demanding when he wants a cuddle or food, and is always running around my feet when he sees me. He purrs instantly when he is picked up!
Kovu is a beautiful dark tabby with big eyes and loads of love to give. He would fit in with any family, and with any cat friendly animal. Kovu is very people orientated, and will thrive in a loving Forever Home.
As he does not seem to have any fear or flight reflexes, Kovu would be best kept Indoors Only, so he does not get hurt.
If you would like to meet this gorgeous little guy, please contact me to arrange a day.
Kovu (now Simon) was adopted on 11 October 2019 after 1 month in foster care
Domestic Short Hair - female
Penny is a very special lady. She came into our care around a year ago when found abandoned in a cage together with her tiny babies. A great mum to her own kittens, Ivy and Rosebud, she took up the challenge her carer offered – to feed and nurture 7 other stray kittens at the same time!
After this heroic effort, and with all 9 kittens fully grown, it's definitely time for this lovely kitty to be rewarded with being thoroughly spoilt by her own furever family.
Penny is a pretty grey tortoiseshell, and still playful and inquisitive. She has proven to be a sweet and affectionate feline companion who loves spending time with her human family. Of course, she has had plenty of experience living with kittens, and another cat, but has also very happily lived alongside a dog in her foster home.
As a young adult, Penny doesn’t require constant attention – just to be loved - so is likely to fit in with most family circumstances. She has been an indoor-only cat since she has been in our care and would prefer to stay so given her previous experience of the outdoors.
Penny is microchipped, vaccinated and de-sexed. If you would like to visit Penny in her foster home located near Windsor, please contact her carer, Debbie, on 0405 144 415.
Penny was adopted on 07 October 2019 after 1.1 years in foster care
Jack Russell - male
Russell has been surrendered due to his owner having just sustained a very serious back injury, rendering her unable to bend, feed and bath Russell who will be taking up carer's residence in the Sutherland Shire. According to the Vet, he is a very healthy and active dog for his age and will need at least once daily walks otherwise may get bored and try and run away to meet his active outlet. Currently weighing in at 8.43kgs, his ideal weight should be around 7kgs. It is clear Russell loves company - not within eye reach but he is content as long as he knows someone is home, otherwise he becomes anxious. Russell was introduced to a friend's cat and other dogs. He was very friendly towards all of them. Russell is getting to know how to use a doggie door and is keen to please. Russell likes running along the sand at the beach on his extension lead but doesn't particularly like the water. Expressions of interest please to his carer on the above e-mail address.
Russell was adopted on 07 October 2019 after 2 weeks in foster care
DMH - female
Jaz and her two siblings, Jasper and Juno were born in a street drain in Schofields, both their parents are street cats (mumcat is to be caught and desexed).
A lovely couple provided food and a warm bed outside for mumcat and kittens but could not catch the young family, so called DCH for assistance. Armed with torch and gloves, these kittens were a tricky threesome to catch, as they fought, scratched and bit.
However after 4 weeks in foster care, the change in these kittens is amazing and they are now looking for a Forever Home. They have been microchipped, wormed and have had their first vaccination.
Jaz is the most timid of the litter and is still easily scared, especially if hands approach her face too quickly. However she has made so much progress, from hissing and spitting at me when I approached, to now, being gently picked up and patted. She would need a Forever Family who are willing to continue working with her, and patiently gain her trust.
Jaz is still only a young kitten and I have absolutely no doubt she will continue to become more affectionate and trusting, with a caring, patient family.
Jaz will need regular brushing (which she is beginning to enjoy), and she should also be an Inside Only cat now, as she will probably roam if allowed out. So far, she does not like dogs or small children.
Please contact me if you would like to meet Jaz.
Please Note: Jaz is looking for a Forever Home, so you must be an Australian Citizen or Permanent Resident.
Jaz (now Coco) was adopted on 06 October 2019 after 1 month in foster care
Cattle - female
Gentle, very shy and thankful Cleopatra arrived from a Country pound, starving for food and affection. You may have seen UTube posts of dogs looking lovingly into their new owners (or foster carer's) eyes after having been adopted. Well this was Cleopatra (Cleo). The name Cleopatra was chosen because she has what looks like black eye-liner extending outward from her eyes. Within hours and after a solid meal, Cleopatra found herself sleeping whilst sitting up with her paws on her carer's lap and head nestled on her paws. Cleo sits patiently by her carer's side whilst she is on her computer and gets on well with her carer's much older dogs. A true sweetheart, her personality will shine the more she gets used to a jacket, bed in a warm location and lots of love. Cleo is not used to walking on a lead and has only ventured outside the front gate twice, only walking slowly and warily around the block each time. Cleo has just come into season and will be desexed as soon as practicable as she is underweight and will be available for adoption about mid October 2019. 2 days into the foster I noticed Cleo wanted all the attention and got jealous and growled at my 13 year old toothless dog so it is thought she would best be suited to a single dog, mature household. Two weeks on, Cleo now walks a wide birth from the 13 year old male, and is still happy to sniff my 16 year old female. Cleo will need a family with patience as she learns to curb her very shy persona. In the last 2 days, she has actually made a happy whimper, now wags her tail, greets with excitement rather than crawling along the ground, and loves rolling on the grass in the sunshine. I will update this space as I get to know Cleopatra as she develops and blossoms. Thanks for your interest so far. For initial enquiries, please e-mail Cleo's carer.

Juno and her two siblings, Jasper and Jaz were born in a street drain in Schofields, both their parents are street cats (mumcat is to be caught and desexed).
A lovely couple provided food and a warm bed outside for mumcat and kittens but could not catch the young family, so called DCH for assistance. Armed with torch and gloves, these kittens were a tricky threesome to catch, as they fought, scratched and bit.
However after 4 weeks in foster care, the change in these kittens is amazing and they will be looking for a Forever Home very soon, now they are tame enough to be microchipped and vaccinated.
Juno is very affectionate and will now meow to get your attention. She is also becoming a big fan of cuddles and being picked up, although she may still hiss if startled.
Juno is the more adventurous of the litter, and would probably adapt to most people and families, if introduced gradually so she felt safe. Juno’s new family will need to be patient and give her time to learn she can trust them but they will be rewarded with lots of love and purrs!
Juno will need regular (probably daily), brushing which she enjoys, and she should also be an Inside Only cat now, as she will roam/run if allowed out. So far, she is curious but not confident with dogs!
Please contact me if you would like to meet Juno.
Juno was adopted on 04 October 2019 after 1 month in foster care
Maltlier (Maltese x Cavalier) - male
UPDATE: Spotty is on trial in his new home
Hi, I'm Spot. Initially purchased for a 5 year old child who is now 13, I found myself the victim of a bitter marriage separation and they want me 'out as soon as possible' through no fault of my own. So I've been rescued by DCH and am now looking for a true furever home. I get along with my carers dog and we go for walks together. I like barking at visiting birds and dogs that bark at me first when I go for a walk. Whilst I am a really good house dog, I need some training in regards to walks I do pull on the lead and I like to bark at dogs when I am out.
I am good with kids. I sit still through grooming and enjoy my food. I don't know what to do with a hard biscuit though.
I am a happy-go-lucky affectionate boy who loves company. My previous household sent me to my carer with some Anxiety treats issued by the Vet but I hope I won't need to use them. I am looking for a home with another small dog so I have company at home and someone to play with and go on walks with and with a family who is familiar with my breed. I also like to be indoors next to my foster carer
And lay next to her as much as possible.
If you would like to meet me, please contact my carer, Jeanette by e-mail to schedule an introduction and find out If your home would be suitable for me.
Spot is desexed, chipped, vaccinated and wormed.
Spotty was adopted on 27 September 2019 after 3 weeks in foster care
Domestic Medium Haired - female
Pancake, Maple (Syrup) and Juice are fun breakfast names given to a trio of orphan kittens who came into care around the same time. While at home with their foster carer, they are called 'kitties!' and 'puss-puss-puss!' as well as a bunch of sweet nothings, as they snuggle up for cuddles. So never-fear, you do not need to keep their name.
Maple is just the sweetest, snuggliest, purry little thing. While she doesn't tend to meow, she always purrs when coming up to you. She adores cuddles and pats, and her favourite spot to snuggle on you is on your chest. She is a curious, young kitten and will investigate what you're up to, and follow you around the house. She is a gentle little girl who will likely grow into a fluffy, snuggly young lady.
She is available for adoption to a home that either has someone home for parts of the day, or with an existing cat/pet, as she is likely to be very lonely when taken away from her litter mates.
Available to meet at Randwick, NSW.
Maple uses the litter trays, and is used to eating a variety of can food, kibble and fresh chicken necks, chicken hearts and chicken wings (raw meaty bones are fantastic for their teeth!). She has also been flea treated, wormed, and has been bathed a few times as well as having had her claws trimmed.
Maple was adopted on 22 September 2019 after 3 months in foster care

Pancake, Maple (Syrup) and Juice are fun breakfast names given to this trio of delicious kittens! While at home with their foster carer, they are called 'kitties!' and 'puss-puss-puss!' as well as a bunch of sweet nothings, as they snuggle up for cuddles. So never-fear, you do not need to keep their name!
They have all grown up together after being found as strays, with no mum to care for them. All were bottlefed in care, and have grown up being exposed to different noises and smells, children and other cats.

Juice is a fluffy little lad who enjoys snuggling on the couch with you. He is the most timid out of the trio, and sometimes rushes to hide if he gets startled.
He is a friendly fellow however, and is outgoing and playful.
Available for meet-and-greets at Randwick, NSW.

Domestic Short Hair - male
Floki will be your best friend. Full of life and love he just wants to be cuddled and petted as often as possible.
He is however fine being by himself also and very well behaved.
He is a gorgeous black cat with a big personality.
Dislikes storms will hide under the bed but everything else he is fearless and his curious nature is strong! Beautiful boy who will be the happiest curled up in bed watching tv with you.
Floki will have up to date vaccinations and recent vet visit before being handed to new owner
No Medical History to Disclose
Behaviour notes:
Is very well behaved unless scared which we will try to scratch or bite to get away from the perceived threat
Is he Ok around Kids?
Hasn't really encountered them
Is he OK around other animals?
Other cats possibly. Dogs no
Litter Trained = yes
He was originally adopted through DCH in May 2017 but now needs to find a new home as the owner is moving to a place with someone with a cat allergy so unfortunately Floki needs a new home.
