🦁Leo is a beautiful 3-year-old female cat with a gentle heart and a soft spot for cozy cuddles.

Naturally a little shy at first, Leo takes her time warming up to new people—but once she feels safe, her affectionate and confident side shines through. She loves being part of the action, especially in the evenings when she’ll happily join in on family time and seek out pats and cuddles. She’s easy to handle, loves sleeping on the bed, and has never hissed—just a loving, quiet presence in the home.

While Leo appreciates calm moments and enjoys spending time alone during the day, she’s also shown that she can thrive in a busier household. She settled beautifully into a lively foster home with kids and would likely do well in a family environment or with other friendly pets, just as well as she would a quieter home.

Leo is the perfect mix of independent and affectionate. Whether you're after a relaxed companion for a peaceful home or a sweet-natured cat to join your family crew, Leo could be the one for you.

Come meet Leo and see if your home is the one she’s been waiting for! https://pawsdarwin.org.au/animals-available-for-adoption-2/

🎆Prepare your pet for this Cracker night!🎆

Although July 1st is a fun night for us, it's not the same for our furry companions. Dogs and cats are extra sensitive to sudden loud noises and flashes of light and shelter animals often have anxious temperaments and are not desensitised enough to noises or have experienced fireworks before. To make the night as fear free as we can, here are some tips on keeping your foster animal calm during the celebration.

🐾Bring your dogs inside. During stressful events, always make sure your animal is safely inside and under supervision. Keep doors and windows shut so they won't have a chance to escape outside and to keep out the noise and light of the fireworks.

🐾Prepare a dark safe place for them to hide. Set up a quiet space in your house for your pet to spend the night. A room with no windows or with curtains and shutters to block out the fireworks is best. Make the space familiar to them with their favourite toys, beds, and blankets. If you're beloved companion is a cat, make sure they're litterbox is always nearby so they don't have to travel far to go to the toilet. Some cats may also take shelter in their litterbox because is smells like them and is a familiar place.

🐾Play music or white noise to buffer the sounds of fireworks. Certain genres of music can keeps animals calm and consistent noise can also make the the sound of the fireworks less sudden.

🐾Make sure your animals is fed and gone to the toilet before the fireworks start. Animals can refuse to eat or move when they're stressed. Making sue their tummy is full and they've done they're nightly routine is important. This also include cleaning out the litterbox incase your cat decides to take shelter their.

🐾Tire them out with play or exercise to put them in a calmer state. Getting rid of excess energy and tiring makes sure they don't have more energy to worry. Providing enrichment in the form of puzzle toys or playtime during the night can also distract them and provide a positive experience. Associating things they love with fireworks will help them the next time Cracker Night comes around.

🐾Keep them company and offer comfort. A lot of people don't realise how many cues animals take from us (yes, even cats) and our state of mind can really affect how your animal acts during the night. We can be a source of confidence and a comforting presence to our stressed animals. Even staying by their side and offering soothing words and pats can make a big difference to how they experience the night.

Planning ahead and ensuring we're well prepared will give us the best outcomes. Our animals rely on us to give them a safe and happy home; that include taking their wellbeing into account during our own times of celebration. We wish you the best Cracker Night and a fun, stress free celebration.
