Hi, I'm Snickers!
I'm a confident little guy with a big personality and an even bigger heart! I love exploring, chasing toys, climbing anything I can, and making sure I know what's happening around the house. Life is one big adventure, and I'm always ready for the next one.
When I've worn myself out, my favourite place to be is right next to my people. I absolutely love cuddles, belly rubs, and stretching out on the couch for a relaxing nap...

Hi, I'm Bounty!
If you're looking for a gentle, loving companion, I might just be your perfect match.
I'm a sweet little boy who enjoys exploring my surroundings, playing with my toys, and then finding the comfiest spot in the house for a nap. Once I get to know you, I'll happily keep you company and love being part of whatever you're doing.
I'm the kind of kitten who's just as happy curled up beside you on the couch as I am...

Meet Pop – A Little Bundle of Joy from The Breakfast Club
Pop is pure happiness in kitten form. A total sweetheart, he’s bouncy, fun, and full of purrs, with a playful spirit that’s impossible not to love. He adores being patted and will happily soak up all the attention you’re willing to give.

Opal is recovering well, but she needs your help! ❤️🩹
On 21 July, Opal underwent a complete amputation of her right front leg including the shoulder blade. She recovering well and showing us how resilient kittens are.
We are nearly halfway to our fundraising goal to cover the cost of Opal's surgery, hospital care, medications and ongoing follow-up treatment.
Every donation, no matter how small, helps us provide vulnerable animals like Opal with the veterinary care they desperately need.
Opal has already survived the hardest part. On 21 July, Opal underwent a complete amputation of her right front leg including the shoulder blade. She is now safely home with her foster family, and already showing how resilient kittens can be happily pushing her favourite toy around with her one remaining front paw.
We need your help to cover the cost of her surgery, hospital care, medications and ongoing follow-up treatment.
As a foster-based rescue, we don't have a physical shelter or facility where students can complete work experience or placement.
While we'd love to provide opportunities for people to learn and gain hands-on experience working with animals, unfortunately we're unable to offer placements.
Every animal in GAR's care lives in the home of one of our dedicated volunteer foster carers, rather than in a central shelter.
If you would like to volunteer your time (outside of a work experience program) there are other ways you can help GAR make a difference 🐾🩵
Please email us at volunteer@geelonganimalrescue.org.au if you are interested in volunteering for tin rattles, animal transport, administrative support or fundraising. ... Read MoreSee Less
