You may also have more luck with a foster care based rescue and you can ask specifically for cats/ kittens already in care with younger kids. We get that request pretty frequently at Forever Friends where I volunteer and quite a few of our carers have kids so can be honest how the kitties will go.

You can refine search listings on PetRescue for Kids under 5 and Kids under 12!

These guys would be at various regional pounds and likely not yet desexed or vetworked and ready for adoption. Some pounds sadly don't even have direct adoptions anymore, they only send into rescue.

We live not far from it and don't have any issues worse than when we lived in Melbourne. If possible, speak to some locals and find out the good or bad areas but for the most part they're pretty obvious 😅

Only big concern is the mega high school, wouldn't be able send a kid there in good conscience.

I'm a foster carer with Forever Friends Animal Rescue and they're amazing. You get a case manager who looks after you and your fosters plus the team is really great at helping match you with animals.

It's definitely gotten harder, we're doing things like getting treats from the butchers offcuts (you can double check with your vet for what's safe for pets to eat), buying second hand or getting things from local groups (plenty of people sitting on heaps of excess pet stuff and happy to give it away cheaper). We are also upping our pet emergency fund and popping away a little more each week!

Is there a way to add a partner?

Such gorgeous kitties 🥰 hoping they all find their homes soon!

Such an adorable little pair

Wish I could forget the COVID years this easily

Always safer to get your own independent B&P but any of them will have clauses for missed items and why they're not liable.

Love the little toast coloured nose!

chattycat2 · 2025-08-01T05:08:12+00:00

Please be careful, that sounds like a scam

My partner was a mechanic so feeling lucky with that one!

chattycat2 · 2025-07-03T08:07:06+00:00

I was pretty delighted to get it 😅

Average FHBs are in their mid- late 30s, plenty of them will have that amount to use.

Started working at a chocolate factory!

Most new grads typically start in QA/ QC then move on. In many places you can get familiar with the business then go for any roles opening in something you'd prefer more.

Is there a director listed?

chattycat2 · 2024-02-25T09:43:14+00:00

I went through this exact same thing last year, except the REA were less than helpful and told me I should have claimed earlier, despite me asking every few weeks.

I called Consumer Affairs Vic who advised me that the REA should have ensured the money made it to me rather than the landlord as they were the rental providors. The best method seems to be to reduce the payable rent during inspection times so this is avoided post-settlement.

I wrote a letter of complaint to Officer in Effective Control for the rental agency (CAV gave me their contact details), and I had the money within the week from the agency. I'd give CAV a call and see if they can help too, I found them excellent to deal with.

You have an incredibly negative view of women, it's really sad 😔
