Meet Boston – Small in Size, Giant in Spirit!
Don’t let the tiny paws fool you — Boston is a little powerhouse of personality! This pint-sized dynamo is fearless, fun, and full of love. Whether he's turning everyday objects into epic toys or charming everyone he meets, he’s always the life of the party.
Boston is super social and thrives on interaction — always seeking attention and never shy about asking for it! He’ll follow you from room to room, curl up beside you for cuddles, or give you a gentle tap just to remind you he’s there and ready for love.
He’s great at entertaining himself with toys, but he’s just as happy pouncing around with a kitty buddy. Boston gets along wonderfully with other cats and would love a playmate who can keep up with his spirited antics.
With his curious nature, confident attitude, and love for the spotlight, Boston brings joy, laughter, and a spark of adventure to any home. Ready to be adored by the tiniest attention-seeker you’ve ever met? Come meet Boston — big personality guaranteed.

When you find a pet you like, click the button on its profile page to fill in a form and register your interest in adopting. You can also call us on (02) 4227 7111 during business hours (Monday – Friday, 9am - 5pm).
We’ll then ask you a few follow-up questions to check that you’re a responsible pet owner and make sure that your chosen pet best meets your needs.
We’ll also invite you to meet your future pet in person to make sure you’re a perfect match, before finalising the adoption.
The only types of pets we offer for adoption are:
The cost to adopt will vary depending on how long the animal has been waiting for a home. Generally costs will be:
- Between $50 - $200 for a cat
- Between $75 - $300 for a dog.
Like all Council fees and charges, these costs will be reviewed each year. Any changes will be publicly exhibited for comment before they are adopted by Council.
Yes you can!
When you let us know you're interested to adopt a cat or adopt a dog, we'll contact you and arrange a meet and greet so you can say hello and decide if they’re the one for you.
Our dogs and cats are boarded at a number of regional kennelling facilities contracted by Council. These are currently located across Wollongong, Gerringong and Nowra. You can't directly visit these facilities, but we'll bring the dog or cat to a location in our area that works for you.
Being a pet owner is a big responsibility.
To adopt a pet from Council:
- You must be over 18 years old
- You don't have to live in the Illawarra, but you will need to be able to transport your pet home.
Before adopting a new pet, consider your lifestyle and living arrangements.
If you have any questions or concerns, our team is happy to talk to you about your situation. Please email us or call (02) 4227 7111 to arrange a discussion.
We recognise the serious issue of baiting within the animal rehoming industry. To help prevent this, we have an assessment process in place for potential owners.
Potential owners are vetted to make sure that they’re suitable and committed to animal well-being.
