Hi… my name is Athena. 🐾

I’ve been patiently waiting, watching other cats get chosen, hoping that maybe today will be my turn. I’m a gentle tabby girl with a soft, striped coat and a heart full of love-just waiting for someone to notice me. 🥺

I might not be the smallest cat in the shelter… in fact, I’m carrying a little extra fluff (okay, a lot of extra fluff!). But I like to think of it as more of me to love. I’m on a special diet now and doing my best, and I’d be so grateful for someone to help me stay on track-with a few extra cuddles along the way. 🍽️

I enjoy life’s quiet joys: sunny windows, cozy naps, and the soft kind of affection that makes you feel like you belong. I might be shy at first, but once I trust you, I’ll curl right into your heart and never leave. ☀️

I’ve been desexed, microchipped, and fully vaccinated-so I’m ready to go home the moment someone says, “She’s the one.” 🏥

If you’re looking for a cat who will be endlessly loyal, quietly sweet, and just a little bit quirky, I hope you’ll come meet me. I’m not perfect, but I’m full of love-and maybe that’s enough. 💕

Please Note:

Please visit our Animal Rehoming Centres during opening hours to meet our animals and adopt. No appointment is needed. For select animals, we will require an email application. Where this is the case, instructions will be specified on the animal's profile.

This website is live and updates frequently. To check if an animal is available, please check their adoption profile. If it is active and hasn't been marked as 'adopted', the animal is still here.

Please be aware there is a chance that by the time you arrive at our location, the animal you have an interest in might have been adopted, or another party might be going through the adoption process.
