😺Shadow😺

Shadow is a handsome long-haired male aged around 4 years old.
He has been with us for almost 3 months now.

Shadow is the kindest, loveliest boy! He absolutely loves fuss and cuddles. Shadow lives up to his name, following staff members up and down!
He also has the loudest, most relaxing purr which can often be heard halfway down the corridor!

Shadow is in good health, neutred and fully vaccinated.

He can be rehomed with children of all ages due to his gentle nature.
There is a possibility for him to be rehomed with another cat, provided correct circumstances are met.
Once settled into his new home, Shadow will require access to an outdoor area.

This happy chap truly deserves a loving, forever home. He would make the best companion, so please do reach out for more information if he could be the perfect addition to your family.

😺Willow😺

Willow is a beautiful 13 year old female. She has been with us for just over 3 weeks now.

Willow is such a friendly and sweet girl. She was very nervous to begin with but after gaining trust, she just wants constant cuddles and fuss!
Willow loves to rub her face on almost every surface she walks past - she is just the cutest!

She is neutered and will be fully vaccinated before rehoming.
Willow came to us with suspected urinary issues but we have controlled this with medication and have not seen any accidents since she has been in our care.
She is overweight and we have been working on getting her to a healthier weight. This would need to be continued in her new home to help her thrive and live her best life!

Willow is a very sweet cat and so can be rehomed with children of all ages.
She is not to be rehomed with any other pets, including cats.
She will require eventual access to an outdoor area.

If this affectionate girl catches your eye, please do not hesitate to contact us for more information.
She truly deserves to have a loving home!

😺Caramel + Chunk😺
*RESERVED*

Caramel and Chunk are 6 year old bonded females.
They have been with us for a few weeks now.

Caramel and Chunk were understandably very nervous when they came to us, but they have both come on leaps and bounds!
Chunk is the slightly more outgoing of the two and would absolutely have fuss and cuddles all day if she could!
Caramel is also extremely friendly, but definitely favours head and chin scratches.
These two girls are some of the friendliest and sweetest cats!

They are both in great health, neutered and will be fully vaccinated in time for rehoming.

Due to being a bonded pair, Caramel and Chunk must be rehomed together.
They can be rehomed with children of all ages, provided they go to a relatively calm and quiet household.
They are not to be rehomed with any other animals.
Caramel and Chunk will need time to settle, but once they do so, they will need access to an outdoor area.

If these two wonderful ladies sound like they are the missing pieces to your family, please do reach out for more information.
These special girlies deserve the most loving, forever home!

😺Simba + Nala😺

Simba (male) and Nala (female) are a bonded sibling pair, aged approximately 4 years.
They have been with us for around 2 months now.

Simba is a gorgeous male who has the best and loudest meow, which he loves to remind everyone of!
He has taken to certain staff members more than others, but he can be a very sweet and cuddly boy.
Nala is the smaller of the pair and prefers her own company. She does enjoy a very rare cuddle, provided she feels safe and not threatened. She requires a quiet, gentle approach.

Simba and Nala are in good health, neutered and fully vaccinated, ready for rehoming.

As Simba and Nala are a bonded pair, they must be rehomed together.
They cannot be rehomed with younger children but older children would be fine. They are also not to be rehomed with any other pets.
Outdoor space will eventually be required for them once they are settled.
It is vital that they go to a loving, calm and QUIET household.

If these two beautiful cats sound like the perfect pair for you, and you meet the requirements needed to help them thrive, please do contact us for more information.

😺Buddy: A Reintroduction😺
*NOW REHOMED*

We previously introduced the lovely Buddy a few months ago.
He is sadly still waiting to find his forever home and has been with us for over 3 months now.

Buddy is 11 years old and in good health, neutered and fully vaccinated. He loves head scratches but is mostly quite independent, although this has never stopped him from turning down the occasional cuddle!

As he has been here for quite a while now, we would all love to see him get a loving, caring home. He so very deserves it.

Buddy does need RAISED FEEDING BOWLS but this is NOT a health concern - he just loves his food!
He can be rehomed with children of all ages and potentially another cat.
He will also need access to an outdoor area once settled.

Please help us find beautiful Buddy a home where he can be his independent, lovable self.
Do get in contact for more information if he sounds like he might be your perfect companion!

😺Introducing Toby😺
*NOW REHOMED*

Toby is a very handsome 3 year old male.
He has been with us for around a month now.

Toby is the friendliest and sweetest boy! He very much adores company and cuddles which goes hand in hand with his confident personality.
Toby is a big cat but his tender and loving nature truly makes him a gentle giant!

Toby is in great health, neutered and fully vaccinated, so ready for rehoming straight away.

He can be rehomed with children of all ages but we are unsure of how he would act around other animals, including other cats.
He will eventually need access to an outdoor area once he has grown used to his new home environment.

This beautiful boy is so deserving of a loving home so if he sounds like the perfect cat for you, please do get in touch for more information.
Help us find Toby a home where he can have all the love and pets he desires!

Great news! Our dear little Sooty has been rehomed after 20 months of searching! He is now living his best life with loads of space in the west of the county. We always find a home for our cats, however long it takes. Baymax has also recently been rehomed so we no longer have any long term residents, which is fantastic news - they are much better off in a home than in one of our pens, however nice these now are. With many thanks to Tara at Kitty Kat Rescue, who put us in touch with Clare at https://www.facebook.com/Newmarketcattery, who in turn found his forever home.

They have been with us for a little over a week now.

They are both very friendly and adore cuddles, especially Felix who has the loveliest loud purr!
They also love their treats, but Max always makes sure he gets to them first!

Max and Felix are in great health, neutered and will be fully vaccinated by the time of rehoming.

As they are a bonded pair, Max and Felix must be rehomed together.
They can be rehomed with children of all ages, as long as it is a calm and relatively quiet household.
They are not to be rehomed with any other pets.
Max and Felix must also be kept indoors initially but will require access to an outdoor area once settled.

😺Introducing Felix😺
*NOW REHOMED*

Felix is the sweetest 4 year old male tuxedo.
He has been in our care for a little over a month now.

Felix is very outgoing once he realises he is safe. He absolutely loves cuddles and attention too!
One of his favourite things to do is follow staff up and down the corridor, patiently waiting for head nudges and pets.
He really is a sweetheart!

He is in good health, fully vaccinated and neutered, ready to go to his forever home as soon as possible.

Felix can be rehomed with both older and younger children.
There is also a possibility for him to be rehomed with another cat if the right circumstances are met.
He will eventually need access to SAFE and SECURE outdoor area once he feels settled into his new environment.

If this beautiful boy sounds like he would fit perfectly into your family, and you can provide him with the love and care he very much deserves, please don't hesitate to contact us for more information.

😺Introducing Tom + Jerry😺
*NOW REHOMED*

Tom and Jerry are the cutest male bonded siblings, aged 7 months.
They have been in our care for six weeks now.

Tom and Jerry are both very friendly and curious! Tom is slightly more inclined to go and explore his surroundings compared to his brother, but neither will turn down a cuddle!
When they first arrived, they were understandably nervous and a little hissy but they have turned out to be the most affectionate pair!

They are in great health, fully vaccinated and will be neutered in time for rehoming.

As they are a bonded pair, they must be adopted together.
They can be rehomed with children of all ages but not with another cat.
They will also eventually need access to a SAFE and SECURE outdoor area once they have settled into their new home.

If you feel these two sweethearts could be the perfect addition to your family and home, please don’t hesitate to get in touch for more information.
