Sugar is a friendly young girl around six months old. She sadly hasn’t had a great start in life and is a little shy with strangers. However, she’s gaining confidence every day in her foster home and loves playing with catnip mice, chasing feathers and balls, and rolling around in her bed when you approach, wanting attention. She’d prefer a quieter home where she can feel safe and settle down at her own pace. Once she’s settled and confident enough, she’ll need a safe outdoor space away from busy roads.

Meet our handsome tuxedo called Larry. He came to us after being abandoned and left on the streets to fend for himself. Larry was so scared but when you went to stroke him he didn’t hiss or scratch, he would just go rigid - so goodness knows what he has gone through. Larry is now in foster care and this is what the foster carer has to say about him ..
‘Larry was very scared when he came to me so I put him in a spare room where he could just chill. I would go in and feed him and chat to him but that was it, he was eating his food and using his litter tray so I knew he was fine that way. I then would just sit in the room talking to him and he started coming to eat when I was sat there and I’d give him a gentle stroke. Then my very friendly cat, Indie, decided he would like to meet Larry. Indie seemed to give Larry confidence and soon they were playing together in the room and Larry even started showing an interest in toys. Now Larry will come downstairs, rub against my leg and enjoys a little fuss and play with Indie. Every day, he comes round a little more now he feels safe. He really is a lovely chap who deserves to find his forever loving home. He will need a quiet, cat experienced home and could definitely live with a nice, friendly cat but needs someone who will understand he just needs time, love and patience. He will definitely need to be kept indoors for quite a while (probably a few months) to build his confidence before going outside and he will need a quiet area when he eventually does go out. Could you be the one to show Larry what a loving home is?’

Willow is a gorgeous young tabby who was signed over to us from her previous owners due to one of them being allergic to her fur. She is used to going outdoors and using a cat flap, but she will need a safe outdoor space that’s away from busy roads. Willow is friendly but she’s not a lap cat; she likes a little fuss but can be an independent little madam at times. She is fine with the cattery staff and will go to them when they go in to see her. We think she would benefit from a cat-experienced owner and a home with no young children. We have no idea how she is with other cats or dogs because she was the only pet in her previous home. She eats dry cat food and loves her treats and toys. She will interact with you with her toys or also play happily on her own. She really is a pretty young girl who deserves to find her forever home soon.

Our handsome boy, Conrad, came to us after he was sadly abandoned on the streets. He had lots of really thick, tight matts in his fur, which were shaved off during his neuter, hence some slight baldish areas, but he must have felt so much better with those gone. He is a friendly chap but will need someone whose cat experienced who will have the time and patience to get him used to gentle grooming, and this will need doing regularly to keep his fur in top condition. Due to his background, we have no idea if he could live with another cat. He will need a quiet area that’s away from busy roads for when he does venture outdoors. He is also clean and does use his litter tray without any issues. Conrad deserves to know what a loving home is really all about, could you show him that?

Tilly is a beautiful tortie who came to us via the inspectorate team after being left in a house. Below is what her foster carer has to say about her so far..
‘Tilly really is a friendly girl who loves a fuss. She is very playful - either with you or on her own. She especially loves her feathers on the end of a stick. She is loving being in my conservatory where she can see so much going on outside and she is often found gazing out of the window and it is clear she is dying to get out and play in the outside world. When I go in, she will quickly come to me for a fuss and I have no choice as she will just sit on my knee, for ages! She looks very affronted when I eventually have to stand up but she does enjoy her home comforts and people too so she would need a home where it would be her choice how much she went outdoors and not to be forced. If she can snuggle on someone’s bed with them, even better. She does like to be with you so needs a home where she will get time spent with her but when she wants space she will take herself off to have a snooze. Tilly could live with a calm cat-savvy dog as she has come across a couple in foster care and is not fazed by them at all (but obviously that depends on the dog). We have no idea how she would react with another cat. She really is a delightful girl who deserves to find her loving forever home. She is a clean cat, uses her litter tray, and loves her food. She definitely wants to go outdoors and a quiet area away from busy roads would be needed.'

Gray is a handsome tuxedo who came to us after being left fend for himself. Appeals were made to find his owner, but sadly there was no response. He didn’t look in a good state initially, but once he was vet-checked, he was given a clean bill of health. He was also neutered and given some much-needed TLC, and now he looks like a different cat. Gray is an independent little chap and likes going out, but he does like the comforts of home too. His foster carer says:‘Gray is a small cat with a big attitude and although he enjoys a fuss, he’s not a lap cat, he’s an independent chap. He will be best suited to being an only pet in his new home. He will potter about and has a roll round on the patio, I initially left the door open for him to get his bearings. He has been fine in the house and he let me stroke him and he was up on his back legs wanting more, and he came when I called him. During the night he went out and came back in the morning for his breakfast, he was friendly and was curled up next to me on a blanket on the settee. He really is a lovely cat who deserves his own loving home.'

Our lovely girl Honey has come to us due to her owners terminal illness. Honey has always been a sweet, quiet cat and unfortunately all the medical staff and visitors were making her anxious so the decision was made for her to come to us now.
Poor Honey is obviously very unsettled and really just needs to be back in a quiet home environment. She needs a home with someone with love and patience where she can come round in her own time. Once she knows you, though, she is a friendly girl. She did live with another cat but didn’t interact with it. She would stay in ‘her’ bedroom during the day but come out in the evening when it was quiet and sit on her owner’s lap. She is on a diet at the moment as she does need to lose a few pounds. Nothing special, just reduced portions. She did go out in her old home, but not very much, and certainly didn’t like it when it was raining, etc., so we do feel she could settle happily as a house cat. Can you give this lovely girl the chance to be back in a loving home? She is very clean and uses her litter tray.

Riley came to us after numerous appeals to find his owner were unsuccessful. He is in good health, friendly and likes a fuss from the cattery staff but he is also an independent chap (he’s had to be after being left to fend for himself) Riley would suit a lifestyle with someone who would feed him (he loves his food), look after him, and give him all the home comforts, but also be fine with his little independent ways of wanting to go out adventuring. He uses his litter tray inside with no issues. Could you offer Riley a new home with plenty of adventure time?
