Shelly's Place Animal Rescue is a small group of volunteers dedicated to the rescue of domestic animals in Sydney. We rely on the generosity and support of the public to continue our life saving work. The more people who see our posts of beautiful, adoptable cats and kittens, the wider the pool of potential adopters and the greater their chances of finding their forever homes.

- Adopt! You can co

mplete an adoption enquiry form to adopt an animal you have seen, or join a waitlist for your purrfect match. https://form.jotform.com/shellys.place.rescue/adoption-enquiry

- Foster! If you can't commit to a cat permanently, why not foster? We always need new families to help, who are ready to take in a cat or kitten at a moment's notice. If you have a bathroom, you can foster! Enquire here --> https://form.jotform.com/shellys.place.rescue/foster-enquiry-

- Donate! The adoption fee we charge does not cover the vet work for these babies, let along the costs involved in taking care of sick and injured animals too. Please give what you can so we can continue to help the animals in our care. https://www.paypal.com/donate/?hosted_button_id=FCHTCKGR6QG26

🦁 Meet Simba! The gentlest little lion you’ll rver meet.

Simba is an easy-going little guy. If it’s playtime, he’s happy to play. If it’s nap time, he’s up for a cuddle. Whatever is doing, he’s ok with that.

🧡 Loves hanging around people. He just wants to be part of whatever’s going on.

🧡 Great with kids and other cats.

🧡 Would probably be good with dogs although he hasn’t met one. But he’s pretty chillaxed so we reckon he’d just take a dog in his stride.

He’d really be great in any home. If you think he’d be great in your home then get in touch!

Location: Rockdale, NSW
Age: 5 months
MC: 991001006309546
Adoption fee: $325

Simba comes desexed, 1st vaccinated, microchipped, lifetime registered and flea and worm treated.

ADOPTED!

⚡️Meet Ziggy! ⚡️

Ziggy gives boy vibes but Ziggy is actually a girl. Ziggy got her name from her crazy zig- zag tail (does that tail even have any bones??!! 🦴 🤷‍♀️) when the people who found her thought she was a boy.

How much she loves you flips around about as much as her tail. If you have food you’re her absolute favourite person. 🍗 If you have a phone and you’re trying to take a picture of her then you are the source of all evil and should be avoided at all costs. 👿

When she loves you she will purr and purr when you pat her. When people aren’t her thing she will go and sleep behind the couch.

😸🐶 Ziggy is great with other cats and is perfectly chill with dogs. She probably wouldn’t be great with small kids because they wouldn’t understand her vaguely bipolar nature.

One thing is for sure she will keep you endlessly entertained!

💫 Nancy 💫

Say hello to Nancy – a delicate darling with a heart full of love and the softest little paws to match. With her striking classic tabby coat, snowy white nose, chest and front legs, and big amber eyes, Nancy turns heads everywhere she goes.

Despite being the tiniest of her litter, Nancy’s personality is anything but small. She’s petite, sweet, and loving, and adores nothing more than being picked up for a cuddle or purring contentedly in your arms.

💖 Her favourite things:
– Cuddles and pats (and more cuddles!)
– Being gently picked up and held close
– Puzzle balls and games in her favourite cozy bed

🙅‍♀️ Not a fan of:
– Being left out of snuggles
– Rough sibling play (she’s a gentle soul at heart)

Nancy has been raised with her mum Chloe and her siblings, and loves other cats – she’s often found grooming and snuggling with them. She’s also happy around kids and is quick to bond with her humans.

From the moment she came into foster care, Nancy's affectionate nature has shone through. She’s blossomed into a confident little girl who seeks out love and attention.

🏡 Her ideal home?
A calm, loving environment where she’ll be cuddled often, adored endlessly, and treated as the special little companion she is.

Could Nancy be your purrfect match?

🌼 Meet Daisy – A Blooming Bundle of Joy! 🌼

Breed: Staffy Cross
Age: 12 weeks
Gender: Female

If you're ready to watch something bloom, then say hello to Daisy – a sweet little pup with a heart full of sunshine and a whole lot of puppy charm! 🌸

Daisy is still just a bud in the big garden of life. She's learning the ropes and figuring out her place in the world, one adorable tail wag at a time. She’ll need a home that’s patient with her puppiness and committed to helping her grow through gentle guidance, ongoing training, socialisation, and toilet training. 🌱

At night, Daisy loves curling up in her crate indoors where she feels safe and snug. She’s not the kind of girl who wants to be left out in the cold — she needs to be part of the bouquet, included in daily life and family adventures. Daisy blossoms when she’s close to her humans and will thrive in a home where she gets plenty of mental stimulation, playtime, and, of course, cuddles! 🌼💕

Like any curious pup, Daisy loves to explore (and occasionally taste!) the world around her. That means her future home needs to be fully puppy-proofed — think no under-house access, no tempting soft soil to dig under, and no little objects lying around that could pose a danger. She’ll also need secure fencing to keep her safe while she plays and learns.

Daisy would absolutely bloom in a home with a friendly, confident adult dog who can help show her the ropes, be a playmate, and teach her how to dog like a pro!
However, cats are a temptation too powerful to resist, and whilst she loves to chase them, the cats don’t tend to share her joy in this game. So a home without kitty temptation would probably be best.

If you’re ready to welcome this precious flower into your life and help her grow into the incredible dog she’s meant to be, then don’t wait — Daisy is ready to plant her paws in your heart. 💛🌷

Apply to adopt Daisy today — and let love grow! 🌼🐾

🌫️ Meet Misty – The Gentle Queen of Comfort 👑
📍 Location: Botany | 🐾 Age: 1 year

If you’ve been dreaming of a quiet, elegant feline companion to share your cozy moments with—look no further than Misty. This one-year-old longhaired beauty is soft in both fur and nature, with a silky grey coat, dazzling emerald eyes, and a thick, luxurious chest ruff that gives her the look of a little lioness… with lap-cat energy.

Misty is a sweet and gentle soul, with just a hint of diva. She loves nothing more than curling up in a sunny window seat or on a soft pillow, keeping your head warm at night or your lap company during quiet moments.

Misty’s Favourite Things:
🛋️ Sitting on your lap for a snuggle session
🧶 Chasing laser lights and strings
🪟 Perching up high to watch the world go by
Misty is a little reserved at first, but once she trusts you, she becomes your loyal shadow—especially if you offer her a comfy chair, some gentle pats, and a calm environment.

Since coming into foster care, Misty has truly bloomed—becoming more affectionate, outgoing, and confident. She still enjoys her quiet time, but more than anything, she loves being close to her human.

💌 Think Misty could be your new best friend?
Apply to adopt today!!

Let this beautiful little lady bring some calm, charm, and quiet joy into your life. 💚

NOTE: Misty is currently in foster care with Alfie, but they are not bonded. In fact, she’s probably looking forward to some peace and quiet, away from his antics! 😹🤭
They came in together but we are not convinced they’re related. They were dumped at Sydney Uni.

Name: Misty
Location: Botany
Adoption fee: $200

Misty is desexed, microchipped, has had her first vaccination, is flea and worm treated and lifetime registered. Apply to adopt Misty here 👇

🐾 Meet Alfie – Your Sunny Sidekick! ☀️
📍 Location: Botany | 🧬 Age: 1 year

Looking for a calm, curious, and totally gorgeous companion? Meet Alfie, a striking pure white boy with soft long hair, a gloriously bushy tail, and gorgeous green eyes that seem to sparkle in the sunlight.

Alfie is a relaxed and gentle soul who loves being part of the action. Whether you're cooking, working, or just chilling, he’ll be nearby—maybe lounging on the windowsill soaking up the sun, or curled up at the end of your bed for a quiet nap.

He’s inquisitive and social, always keen to be included in the day-to-day activities. Alfie will chat to you with meows and trills (especially if dinner’s running late!), and he loves being picked up and carried like a big fluffy baby. He's incredibly chill and easy-going with his humans.

Alfie’s Favourite Things:
🐟 Food (he’s a true foodie!)
🪞 Laser light games
👀 Watching the world from his sunny window perch
Not a Fan Of:
🚪Being left out of the action
🔊 Loud noises
🕐 Late dinner (you’ll hear about it!)

Alfie has blossomed in foster care—he’s become more confident, affectionate, and comfortable just being himself. He’s ready to find a forever home where he can continue to grow, explore, and follow his humans from room to room.

Let this snowy prince brighten your days and keep you company through all of life’s little moments. 💚

🩵 Bobby 🩵

Beautiful Bobby is ready for his furever home!

Bobby is an 18 month old Shih Tzu who just adores being around his humans. He’d love a home where he will be included in the adventures of the family, and be the pride and joy (your one and only - in terms of pets!) You see, while Bobby is never aggressive to other pets, he gets so overexcited he loses all self control!

Bobby will need a family who are committed to continuing his training and socialisation. He is a fast learner who loves to please, and he needs to be given the chance to learn proper manners in a patient and calm manner. Positive reinforcement is a must with Bobby.

If you would like to apply to adopt Bobby, please explain in detail the home you are able to offer him. We will only contact shortlisted applicants.

😻 It’s time for beautiful Sarabi to find her forever home 😻

All Sarabi’s kittens have been adopted and she would love to find a family to love her just like her kittens did.

She can be shy with new people but once she knows you’re a safe person she’s a total snuggler.

She would love a quiet home. Noisy kids are a bit scary. In her first foster home she was with other cats and was perfectly fine with them, but she’s been fostered on her own for a while now.

She would be perfect for someone living on their own, or a couple who want a kitty friend to hang out with.

Age: 3 years
Location: Beverley Park, NSW
MC: 991003002914675
Adoption fee: $100

Sarabi comes desexed, microchipped, 1st vaccinated, and flea and worm treated.

Foster carers needed ASAP

We are looking for 2 foster carers to take in these beautiful tabby kittens. There are 5 or 6 of them so we’ll split the litter. Mum is also friendly and we’d love to give her a foster home. Currently her plan is to be TNRd and we want more for her than that!

But we can’t do it without the help of foster carers.

If you are over 18, have a space away from your own pets (like a bathroom or a laundry), can drive to our vets in Kogarah, Newtown or West Guildford for desex appointment on a day that suits you, and you can commit for a minimum of 4 weeks we’d love to hear from you!
