🌟 Cat of the Week - Sampson 🌟 Poor Sampson contin 🌟 Cat of the Week - Sampson 🌟

Poor Sampson continues to be overlooked despite being one of our most popular boys online! We’ve posted about him l regularly, everyone says how lovely he is… yet not a single adoption enquiry for this special lad.

Sampson has now had his first vaccination and is ready to start his new life in a home of his own. After life on the streets, he deserves that chance more than ever.

This affectionate boy is full of love and companionship. He just wants somewhere safe and warm where he can finally relax, be cared for and enjoy the easy life he has never truly had.

He may be able to live with one calm other cat, but would likely be happiest as an only pet soaking up all the attention. He is also FIV negative.

Honestly, what more could you want than giving an ex street cat the loving home he has waited so long for? 🖤
Meet Areo 🖤 This tiny boy is only 6 weeks old, so Meet Areo 🖤

This tiny boy is only 6 weeks old, so he’s not ready for adoption just yet — but we couldn’t wait to introduce him!

Areo is an incredibly friendly, affectionate little kitten, although he is a bit wobbly on his feet. At the moment, there is a possibility he may have CH (Cerebellar Hypoplasia), also known as “wobbly kitten syndrome.” We should know more after his next vet check and vaccinations.

Whatever the outcome, Areo is absolutely adorable and full of personality already.

If he is confirmed to have CH, he will need:
• An indoor-only home or one with a secure catio
• No dogs, as his unsteadiness could make things difficult for him
• No young children or toddlers who may accidentally grab or knock him
• Ideally a friendly cat companion for company and play

For now, he’s staying safely in foster and growing stronger every day 💕

 Golden boy searching for his perfect retirement home! 

🐾 Likes: cuddles, brushing sessions, being close to his humans, nighttime chats, zoomies and affection. Would love a catio! 

🚫 Dislikes: feeling isolated, tiny spaces, and light sleepers too close to his evening concerts.

🏡 Looking for: a calm, understanding home with space to roam, lots of companionship, and humans who appreciate a soft fluffy shadow always nearby. No dogs, unsure about other cats.
Furrever Home Friday 💙 Tiggy was rehomed back in Furrever Home Friday 💙

Tiggy was rehomed back in 2020, and from the very beginning we were honest—she’s an independent little lady who likes life on her own terms. And true to form… she absolutely is!

Her adopters tell us:
Tiggy isn’t a cuddly cat, but she’s lovable in her own unique way. She keeps them on their toes too, whether that’s sneaking into the neighbour’s car for a nap, getting herself accidentally shut in a shed, or casually inviting herself into nearby homes for an hour or two when it suits her!

At home, she shares her space with a Labrador called Archie… although it’s fair to say Tiggy is very much the boss.
“She isn’t your typical lap cat, but we love her.”

Ria’s story is a little different. 

After sadly losing their beloved cat Tipsy after 18 years, her adopter reached out looking for a yard cat, something a little older, perhaps less “people-focused.”

Ginny knew just the cat.

“I don’t quite know what I’m going to do with this one… she’s not the nicest of cats!”
But that didn’t matter as her adopter said yes without even meeting her, offering Ria a chance and a home.

Ria took a little time to settle. After careful introductions and a gradual release, she had a wobble early on and went missing for five days. Thankfully, a kind neighbour spotted her, kept her safe overnight, and she was soon back where she belonged.

Since then, she’s found her feet beautifully.
Now a happy yard cat, Ria spends her days exploring, catching the occasional mouse, and enjoying attention—very much on her own terms.

“She’s a lovely character and very happy at my yard”

Two very different cats, both living life exactly how they like it—and both deeply loved 💛

👀 Sneak peek… These gorgeous cats will be lookin 👀 Sneak peek… 

These gorgeous cats will be looking for their forever homes over the coming days and weeks. Some are already listed on our website, while others will be appearing very soon.

As each cat needs time to settle in, be vet checked, neutered, and vaccinated (where needed), not all will be available on the website straight away — so please do keep checking back for updates and new profiles.

If you spot your perfect match, you can apply using the adoption form on our website. You’re also very welcome to submit an adoption enquiry even if you don’t have a particular cat in mind. 

Please take a moment to read our “Adoption Process” page to see how everything works.

Come and join rescue cats Lucie and Dwayne for the Come and join rescue cats Lucie and Dwayne for their dental surgery today 😻🦷👌 (trigger warning…images of dental surgery follow)

Lucie and Dwayne came to us in need of some dental work, 8 extractions were needed in total between them. Cats can be exceptionally good at hiding signs of pain and discomfort. Dental pain can also have a gradual onset, which makes it challenging to pick up on those slight changes in their behaviours. Signs can include but are not limited to; drooling, lack of appetite, difficulty eating, extra smelly breath, grinding sounds when eating and pawing at the face and mouth. The best way to keep your cat’s teeth healthy is a good quality diet alongside a yearly vet check up. Lucie and Dwayne were absolute champs today and we know they will be feeling SO much more comfortable now those diseased teeth have been removed. They were back to eating their tuna with gusto in no time! 🐟 

Big shout out to the vets and nurses for the absolute gold star service they always provide for our cats ⭐️
