CURRENTLY IN CARE
The cats below are currently in care at our Melbourne HQ and will be looking for new homes soon!

Violet
Microchip no.: 900164001654492
D.O.B.: 18/01/2018
Introducing Violet - our newest Sphynx Rescue family member! She is a very sweet and cuddly lady who unfortunately was not coping with children in her previous home.
Violet is also a bit on the chunky side so we are working to get her to a more healthy weight before she will be ready for a new home.
​
She has had a general health check and vaccination and is doing well other than some dermatitis on her rear, which we believe is due to her struggling to clean herself adequately at the moment due to her size.

(Kat) Von D
Microchip no.: 941000026901309
D.O.B.: 11/02/2022
Von D is a teeny tiny little girl - weighing in at just over 2kg. She came into care with Grayson and they will be looking to be adopted together.
​
She has had a general health check and vaccination and is booked to be desexed soon. Once she is recovered and we know that she is doing well, she and Grayson should be ready to look for a new forever home.

Grayson
Microchip no.: 941000027212993
D.O.B.: 11/06/2022
Grayson is a handsome boy who came into care recently with his girlfriend Von D. They are a bonded pair and will be looking for a new home together.
​
He has had a general health check, vaccination and has been desexed and will be looking for a new home with Von D soon - we are just giving his hormones a chance to settle down after his desexing!

Pickles
Microchip no.: 956000009437363
D.O.B.: 16/12/2017
Pickles is a lovely lady that has recently come into care. She is a bit of a complicated case and has a few health concerns we are addressing before she can hopefully find a new home.
Since coming into our care Pickles has had surgery to remove two masses that were growing on her body, each one turned out to be a different tumour (thankfully they were fully removed in the surgery). We have also learned that Pickles is in the early stages of HCM - she does not currently need medication for this but will need another heart scan in a year for monitoring.
​
We are now trying to see if we can help Pickles' eyes as they are cloudy and she constantly has eye discharge. So far we have ruled out all kinds of infections and will be doing a few more tests before possibly going to see an ophthalmologist.
​
Pickles does not have the best teeth but this is a low priority as due to her heart condition, we do not want to put her body under stress with surgeries if we can help it.
Pickles is a very loving girl and we will do our best to get her the help she needs.

Covi
Microchip no.: 956000011778538
D.O.B.: 26/11/2020
Covi is a very affectionate ginger boy who loves cuddles on the couch. He is not a huge fan of young children or other animals - he wants all the attention for himself.
​
We have taken him for a vaccination and general health check and he is doing well, though he does have sensitive skin and will need a dental procedure before he can look for a new home.

Daisy
Microchip no.: 953010004043257
D.O.B.: 01/09/2019
Daisy is a little sweet girl who loves cuddles on the couch.​
​
She is not a fan of babies & small children or dogs, she has quietly tolerated other cats but would likely prefer to be on her own.
​
Daisy had a general health check up when she came into care and had no obvious issues, but unfortunately has had a few medical episodes since then that we are trying to get to the bottom of - but she is a bit of a medical mystery! Every now and then Daisy will not be able to regulate her own body temperature and will seem to be in some pain and we are not sure why, but we are investigating and managing it as best we can. Hopefully we can find some answers so that she can then go on to find a new forever home!​​​​​​
​
Daisy is also being retrained to use her litter correctly as she occasionally likes to poop outside of it.
​

Remus
Microchip No.: 956000010563887
D.O.B.: 25/10/2018
Remus is actually a Lykoi (or 'werewolf cat') not a sphynx - but we are awarding him 'Honorary Hairless Cat' status.
​
Remus is a sweet boy who is well loved and looked after, but at some point he may be looking for a new home that will enjoy his weirdness and continue to spoil him. We do not have a timeline for this but thought we would share him with you anyway, because look at that face!
He is up to date on his vet care and has had a recent general check up - for the most part is in good health. He did have a dental and needed a few teeth out but is doing well and enjoying lots of cuddles whilst recovering.
​
The black spots you can see on him are freckles/sunspots, but Remus does have a skin condition that can occur in Lykoi cats where he develops cysts under his skin. It has never caused him any pain or issues other than being 'bumpy'.
