Perhaps your cat would like a wallaby mate?

Sometimes wallabies and kangaroos are found in the pouches of dead mothers, or find themselves homeless when they're a bit older. Ideally they are looked after and, when they're ready, introduced back to their natural environment.

But sometimes they prefer to just hang around!

I particularly like the last one - Dusty in the back of the ute. That is so Australian!

I had to read this story...not just because of the 'wallaby mate' and 'cat' part...but because I had no idea what the 'back of the "ute" was???  

  I thought it was a 'pouch' or something.  I think it's a 'universal terrain vehicle' or 'pick-up truck' on our side of the world.  Yup, thinking that Australia is definitely on my 'bucket-list' now...but strangely, I'll probably need an english translator or guide..to just get around.  Friends went to australia, but mainly stayed in Sydney, and hit some beaches...and said there were no problems with understanding. 

Dusty, the wallaby who thinks he's a dog, is indeed very, very cute...especially after he 'pinched' one of the dog beds and the family had to buy a third dog bed. 

I particularly like Wally, who only comes by to visit his rescue family, watch some television, and then goes off again.

Australia is beautiful, but you will need a translator. I'm really lucky because my brother lives there. Every time I go to visit I spend a lot of time asking him "What did he just say? What does that mean?" My favourite bit of Oz slang is "Stubby", which is what they call a small bottle of beer.
