Meet Honey, a lovely one-year-old ginger cat with a heart as warm as her name suggests. This beautiful feline came to us alongside a litter of young kittens, and now that her babies have found new families, it's her time to shine. Honey is ready to transition from the role of a devoted mother to a cherished family member in her very own loving home.
After nurturing her kittens, Honey is eager to embrace a quiet and restful life. Her sociable and gentle nature is undeniable—she loves human company and is delightfully easy to handle, making her a wonderful addition to any household. Honey thrives on interaction and companionship, capturing hearts with her affectionate demeanour.
Having spent time with many, Honey is also social with other cats and more than content with sharing a home with other feline family members, so she is a great fit for a multi-cat household.
She longs for a peaceful environment where she can truly relax and be pampered. Her ideal home is one where she can receive all the attention and love she undoubtedly deserves. If you're looking for a gentle, loving, and friendly feline companion, Honey is ready to fill your home with warmth and sweetness. Embrace the chance to welcome Honey into your life and experience the joy of a loyal, caring companion who will be forever grateful for the love you share.

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 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.
