Snickers
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.
When playtime winds down, Pop’s favourite spot is curled up at the end of the couch on your feet, purring contentedly while you relax. He’s also a...

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
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.
🐈 BROWNIE 🐈 BREED: DSH GENDER: Female AGE: 7 years, 4 months MICROCHIP: 956000013006893 GAR ID: 2430 SOURCE: RE100238
Everyone, meet Brownie! Brownie is a gorgeous, sassy lady looking for her forever home. Could that be you?
Brownie has recently had her world turned upside down when her person became severely unwell and could no longer care for her. She is very much loved by her extended family, but she needs a more laid-back home as she starts to move into her senior years.
Brownie is a little slow to warm, but once she finds her person, she really comes out of her shell. She’s not a huge fan of other cats and would do best as a solo feline. She has been around dogs previously with no issues, as long as they give her space and allow her to interact in her own time.
Brownie would be best suited to a home with no young children, with a family that are around a lot but still allow her plenty of space and to live safely as an indoor only cat.
Could you be the soft landing for this lonely lass?
Brownie is desexed, microchipped, and up to date with flea and worm treatment. During her time in care, Brownie has been an indoor cat and should remain so for her own safety.
Poor Brownie, I hope she finds her new home soon. 🤞
Beautiful Girl 🖤🤍
Bless brownie I do hope that furever person is out there. You deserve nothing but the best 😻
Identity crisis
So identical to my beautiful rescue tuxie, Donna, who sadly went over the Rainbow 🌈 Bridge in March after suffering a stroke. She would have been 17 in September. I’m not quite ready to adopt as yet, but will definitely come to GAWS when the time is right.
Good luck beautiful Brownie. 🐈⬛🐾❤️
