Cat • 1 year and 10 months
Meet Piko - a big, handsome boy with a soft heart who just needs a little time to show you who he really is.
When we first met Piko, he was a little unsure of his surroundings and took some time to settle in. But it didn't take long until he completely melted into a total smooch.
Once he feels safe, Piko is affectionate, relaxed, and very much enjoys human company. It's a wonderful transformation to see, and a clear sign of just how quickly he can bond when given space and reassurance.
Piko is a nice, solid boy with a gentle nature and a real fondness for people once he trusts you. He enjoys attention and will happily soak up affection when he's comfortable.
One very important note: Piko does not like other cats, and he is looking for a strictly single-cat household where he can have his space, his people, and his peace without having to share.
For the right adopter, Piko is one of those rewarding cats who just needs a small window of patience before showing his true colours ... and once he does, he's all in.
In a first for Australian animal shelters, The Lost Dogs’ Home Adoption Ambassador Program will give animals a better chance at finding a forever home by allowing people to adopt directly from our specially trained foster carers. This will negate the need for animals to return to the shelter environment.
If you are interested in adopting an animal through this program please contact us using the button below.
We’d love to hear from you. Whether you have a question, want to get involved, or simply need more information, our team is here to help.
