About Wallaby

Wallaby is a friendly yet anxious guy who needs some time to adjust to his new surroundings. At about a year old, he faced a major upheaval when his family was deported, leaving him and his brother, Wombat, without care. The transition has been tough, and while Wallaby is learning that his foster home is safe, he would thrive with a patient adopter who can help him build confidence. He has previously interacted well with children, but he'll need a gentle approach to bounce back from his recent past. Wallaby doesn’t need to be adopted with Wombat, although they can be considered together. He is fully vetted, altered, and negative for FeLV/FIV. This sweet boy is ready to find a loving home where he can settle in and reveal his true personality. What are you waiting for? Apply today!
