About Hisses to Purrs
Hisses to Purrs was started in 2021 by a woman and her mother who, through their love of cats, became involved in various cat rescues from 2019. After a while, they noticed a gap in cat rescue in the southern suburbs of Adelaide. While many rescues combine rescuing street cats with surrendered or abandoned cats and kittens, none (that they could tell) solely focused on street cats and cat colonies. With ever-increasing kittens born on the street each year, Hisses to Purrs was born to do their little part to combat the growing population of street cats in the southern area. Instead of following in most other rescues' footsteps, Hisses to Purrs strictly focuses on street cats and cat colonies. While we are only taking kittens and their mothers at this stage, we hope to take adult and junior cats in the future as we sign on more foster carers.

Odin
Hi, I'm Odin! Like Layla, Leo and Teddy, I'm from a hoarder property with over 20 cats! I'm looking for my purrever home where I can get tons of attention!
When I say tons of attention, I mean tons! I loooooooove pats and will roll around looking for more when you stop! Lately, I've also learnt that laps are great! Did you know that they mean more pats and attention?! I do now! Laps are the best! My foster carer says I'm a lovely boy who will make a great addition to any family.
Odin has been:
- Untried with cats while in care but has been around over 20 others so will be fine with them as long as he's given time for the right introductions
- Untried with dogs (probably best in a home without them)
- Tried with kids and will be fine with primary-school aged children once he settles and gets used to them
***To be kept strictly indoors or with access to a secure enclosure only***
Odin is 7 months old (DOB: 30/1/22) and his adoption fee of $150 includes:
- Desexing
- 1st Vaccination
- Microchipping
- Flea and worming treatments up to date of adoption
- Litter training
- Socialisation
- An adoption pack with some of his current food, a carrier blanket, a set of toys and other goodies to get him started.
Odin is available to meet at his foster carer's home at Coromandel Valley.
If you would like to meet Odin, please fill out the following form (https://forms.gle/hadqmP3cVaDLviC9A) and his foster carer will get back to you as soon as possible to arrange a time to meet him!

Sally
Hi, my name's Sally! I'm Binks's sister and also came into care from a hoarder property with 30 cats.
I'm a purry girl once I get to know you who loves a pat and a brush. I love other animals as well and would love a furry friend to keep me company. My foster carer says I'm her snuggle buddy. I'd love to be your snuggle buddy too!
I love toys and playing now that I have the chance to without a ton of other cats to compete with. I don't have a particular favourite toy like Binks, I think they're all great!
My dream home is one that will give me time to settle in and get to know my new humans. Someone who can give me lots of attention, keep up with my grooming (I'm fluffy so will need a brush!), and another furry friend would be nice too!
Sally has been:
- Tried with other cats and loves them
- Untried with children
- Tried with a miniature breed dog and is great with her.
***To be kept strictly indoors or with access to a secure enclosure only***

- 1st Vaccination
