Meet our loveable Pets of the Week looking for forever homes while in care with Wollongong Pet Connection.
Dog of the week: Bellatrix
Meet Bellatrix!
Bellatrix is an affectionate, playful 11-month-old American Staffordshire terrier.
With a big personality and an even bigger heart, Bellatrix is always up for fun and cuddles.
Bellatrix is toilet trained and already responsive to commands, making her a great candidate for continued training.
She can be timid with new people, but once she warms up, she’s incredibly friendly and loving.
Her affectionate nature makes her a joy to have around, and she loves a good snuggle.
She’s social with large dogs, and her playful energy makes her a great match for homes with other active canine companions.
Her anxious side means she’ll benefit from a calm, reassuring environment and a family that can help her build confidence.
If you’re looking for a sweet, energetic companion who’ll reward your love with loyalty and joy, Bellatrix might be your perfect match. Come meet her and see how quickly she can win your heart!
Carlo’s heart is as soft as his fur – no easy feat when you’re this fluffy. Did we mention handsome, too? Photo: Wollongong Pet Connection.
Cat of the week: Carlo
Meet Carlo!
This three-year-old domestic ‘floofer’ is a calm, cuddly, and affectionate lovebug.
Carlo is ready to find a forever home where he can truly shine. With his soft, grey and white coat and gentle eyes, Carlo is as handsome as he is sweet.
This laid-back boy is the definition of a snuggle expert.
He lives for cuddles, chin scratches, and curling up beside you for a nap.
Carlo is social, affectionate, and loves being around people — especially if there’s food involved!
Carlo is also playful in a gentle, endearing way. He enjoys interactive toys and a bit of fun, but he’s not overly energetic or demanding.
He’s the perfect mix of mellow and mischievous.
Carlo is the kind of cat who will quietly steal your heart.
Whether he’s lounging in a sunny spot or curling up next to you on the couch, he’ll bring warmth, comfort, and unconditional love into your life.
If you’re looking for a sweet, low-maintenance companion who will adore you endlessly, Carlo is your guy!
