Adult Cats are appreciated by Adults!

The Seniors for Seniors program is a program that places an adult and/or rehabilitation cat in with retirees and/or senior citizen.

Not only is there strong medical evidence that a companion animal can greatly increase the health and enhance your life, but seniors come with a wealth of knowledge that is embedded from years of experience.

The program is very simple.  We place an adult cat that matches the desired personality and type with a person who is looking to join the program. This may be either permanent or temporary depending on what you are looking for, and the animal may be either a healthy adult or a rehabilitation cat needing special care. We have many adult cats waiting for new homes so call Kelly on 9011 6053 or email kd@catrescue.com.au

It's not just about giving you cat, you can choose a variety of experiences.
  • You can adopt an adult cat - We have many adult cats that have been through the life experiences and are ready to settle in to new homes.
     
  • OR - You can rescue and care for an adult cat whilst we find her a home. This may be long term foster care. We we will provide you with the necessary equipment and support to help you with foster care
     
  • OR - You can take on rehabilitation care for a recovering cat. We occasionally have injured cats that don't require anything more than attention, love, safety and a regular bowl of food. We will provide all the support whilst you provide hands on safety for the cat.

 

Seniors know a lot about looking after animals. The concept came about from discussing the experience our families have had in raising and rescuing animals. "Why let that kind of experience go to waste. many seniors we deal with already know about feeding, cleaning and proper care, they can devote real time to the animal and they are consistent. My mother taught me about cat care, so why not learn from that".

A little effort, a lot of reward.  Adult cats are much easier to manage than kittens. They are already litter trained and love nothing more than a comfortable lap to sit on or the end of a bed to sleep.

The program saves lives. Without this program we would not be able to take in adult cats. Simple. This program gives us an avenue to help save the lives of an adult cat in a quality way with real results
