Introducing is Rasmus the Russian Blue. He's thoroughly spoilt by the two of us, but he brings us so much joy every day.
Our 2 storey home has two completely private and self-contained levels.
Relax in our leafy garden and enjoy the massive birds.
You must be able to easily go up and downstairs.
Our road can be busy but we are hidden away behind trees and shrubbery.

Assignment Requirements

We are seeking lots of loving care for our eight year old, indoors-only Russian Blue cat. He needs his long morning lap time, his late afternoon playtime, more lap time, and access to the end of your bed during the night. He has a big personality, he carries out conversations with you and lets you know when he's hungry and he has a crazy 15 minutes when he races through the house like a bolt of lightning! He is intelligent, sensitive and prone to anxiety when we are away. He's used to having us at home most of the time as we are retired; we need someone who is happy to spend a lot of time at home.

We have a relaxing bush-style garden and are within walking distance of the local beaches and all amenities. Other than the care of Rasmus, there will only be collecting mail, putting out the bins and watering a few pot plants once a week. We do have a variety of native birds that visit every day and love to be hand fed with a little mince and insectivore mix. This is not a requirement though, but the birds v will appreciate it if you choose to do this!

About the Area

VICTORIA POINT Brisbane, Queensland
Suburb Insights
Your days in Victoria Point will unfold with a gentle, bay-side rhythm. Morning routines with your furry charges often begin along the foreshore, tracing the paved paths from Thompson's Beach past the jetty. The air carries a distinct salt tang, and the quiet pace allows for attentive pet care, free from urban rush. Midday offers opportunities to relax at a café along Colburn Avenue, perhaps after a visit to the local shops for essentials. Evening strolls naturally lead back to the water's edge, watching the light soften over the bay, reflecting the day's calm. Weekends invite exploration beyond the immediate. A short ferry ride transports you to Coochiemudlo Island, perfect for a leisurely afternoon walk with a well-behaved dog on its quieter stretches of sand. Local markets occasionally pop up, offering handmade goods and fresh produce; otherwise, nearby Redland Bay offers more established options. For longer outings, the area's network of walking trails extends into protected bushland, providing varied terrain. While local buses connect to larger centres, having a car proves beneficial for venturing further afield. This slower coastal life means ample time for the quiet care of the home and its animals, fully embracing the local serenity.
