Frodo, Sam, Merry and Pippin

These 12 week old kittens are ready for their new homes! They were born to a feral mother but we have been spending a lot of time handling them and getting them to approach us with confidence. They are improving but are looking for homes who will continue this encouraging approach.

All four are male, Frodo and Sam are the blacker ones, with Merry and Pippin the mainly white ones.  They are all vaccinated, microchipped and neutered. They will all need to have a second vaccine administered around mid-June so this is a consideration for anyone looking to take a pair sooner than that.

As mentioned, they will need a bit of safe time to settle and calmly get to know their family for the first few weeks.  Toys are hugely useful for them throughout this bonding period as are licky treats! All four are using their litter trays well already.

We would like these cats to find homes away from a busy road where they can have safe access to the outdoors. An indoor-only home with access to a catio would also be considered.

Children love kittens but adults will need to take the lead on handling and bonding nicely with these cats and not allow children to get too excited around them too quickly.  If you think you have a home where a pair of these kittens will be loved and safe into the future, please read the Adoption Process on the website and apply using the Adoption Questionnaire.

Jones and Limpet

The adorable Jones and Limpet, who are both 1 year old boys, are looking for a new home! They were adopted together as kittens last year and went to the most wonderful home. However, due to genuine circumstances, the family are no longer able to care for them.
Jones, who is white and tabby, came to into our care as an underweight kitten, suffering from a very bad case of flu. It took several months of treatment before he was well enough to be adopted. He still has mild lingering symptoms such as runny eyes and the occasional sneeze, which flared up slightly when he came back to us, due to the move. However, this is easily managed through some eye cleaning and general monitoring. Jones is a very high energy young cat who adores playtime, cuddles, food and has the softest fluffiest coat!
Limpet, who has brown tabby colouring, was also found as a kitten having received a knock from a car, leaving him with a bruised head and injured front paw. Due to the injury, his toe was amputated and he spent some time in a crate to recover. This has never hindered his mobility and has led him to having a really cute slight wobble when walking! Limpet is a very sweet and vocal young cat, who loves attention, playtime and receiving pets.
The boys are extremely bonded and sleep next to each other. Therefore, we are looking for a family who will take them as a pair. We would love for them to go to a home where they will receive lots of attention and not be left alone for long periods of time. They were previously living at an indoor-only home, so the same would be ideal, either with or without a catio. Alternatively, somewhere rural away from any busy roads may also be suitable, as long as they are slowly and carefully introduced to the outside world when the time comes, under supervision at first. Both are very friendly with other foster cats, so would also be suitable to go to a home where there is an existing cat. A home with children is fine, as long as they are used to handling young cats, as Jones is still a little scratchy when playing.

Dusty

Dusty is an extremely affectionate adult cat – approximately 5 years old.
He has a gentle, easygoing nature and loves nothing more than stretching out in a warm patch of sunshine, watching the world go by.
With his soft, beautiful fur and relaxed personality, Dusty is a joy to be around. He enjoys being picked up and absolutely adores cuddles, happily settling in for a snuggle whenever he gets the chance. He’s the kind of cat who will quietly keep you company and bring a calm, comforting presence to any home.
Sadly, while Dusty has made himself very much at home with people, our own two cats have not accepted him at all. For his happiness and theirs, we feel it’s best to find him a loving new home where he can truly relax and be part of the family.
Dusty is now looking for a forever home where he can continue to share his affectionate nature and enjoy the simple pleasures of life—sunshine, warmth, and plenty of love.

Ambrose

The lovely Ambrose is looking for a home! Ambrose, who is approximately 2 years old, as a lovely playful nature and a beautiful shiny coat. He was found wandering with a hind leg injury, resulting in him not being able to bear weight on his leg. After being brought to our vets by the kind person who found him, thankfully, the injury wasn’t as bad as initially thought. However, our vets suspected that he’d been bitten by another animal, which left him with a nasty infection. After a clean, antibiotics, pain relief and some crate rest, Ambrose has fully recovered!
Although Ambrose was initially hissing when brought to us, likely due to the pain he was in at the time, he is a completely different cat now and is so sweet and gentle. He absolutely loves receiving attention, is becoming more affectionate every day and likes to jump up onto your lap to make biscuits and curl up. He doesn’t seem too familiar with play toys so is discovering and loving how fun everything is, like his ball track and feather string toy. He also adores anything with catnip.
Ambrose would love a home with a family who can provide him with a lot of attention and playtime. The ideal home would be somewhere rural with outdoor access that he can enjoy once settled in. He has so far responded very well to other young foster cats, is very curious and showing signs that he wants to play with them. He would be suitable to live with other cats, and would probably thrive with another young companion cat, as long as introductions are done slowly.

Java and Kiwi – RESERVED

Adorable sisters Java and Kiwi are a pair of 12 week old kittens looking forward to meeting their forever family.
These girls might be hard to tell apart at first but their unique personalities give them away once you get to know them!
They’re both very playful, affectionate and purr as soon as you talk to them. Java especially loves a warm spot to sleep and both will want to curl up on your lap if given the chance. They’re so sweet to each other, grooming, napping and playing together always.
A home with children or other animals should be fine for them as long as introductions are done slowly, with supervision. A rural home away from busy roads so that they can eplore the great outdoors safely when they’re older would be ideal, or an indoor home with safe outdoor access would work great too.

If you are interested in adopting Java and Kiwi, please fill in the questionnaire in the Adoption section.

3 Female Outdoor Cats

These three lovely female cats have spent their entire lives together.  Originally strays who wandered onto a farm setting, they have been neutered and well-cared for.  The property is now up for sale and these 3 cats, need to find a new outside space to call their own.

Although these three are not handleable, they are curious and do interact nicely with the household from a slight distance. There is one who is more tame and will allow gentle rubs. As you can see, all 3 will poke their heads in for feeding but these are outdoor cats who have always had access to a warm shed / barn in their home.

They are looking for another outside home all together.  Whoever offers them this home will need to provide a comfortable space for them to be able to access for cosy shelter and also commit to feeding them regularly.

For the first approx 3 weeks these cats should be kept inside within a shed or barn until they realise that this is their new home.  If let out immediately they will just scarper so measures do need to be put in place to allow them time to adjust and trust this new person / place.

If interested in offering these 3 a home please fill in the Adoption Questionnaire and we will be back to you shortly!

 

Mousy

Mousey is a beautiful, fluffy black-and-white female cat between 3-6 years old. She came into our care as a frightened feral cat and is still very nervous and unsure around people.
She’ll need a calm, quiet home with someone patient and understanding who can give her the time and space to settle at her own pace. Ideally no other pets.
Mousey has had some health issues, and the vet has noted a heart murmur. She has been vaccinated, wormed, and spayed.
Her ideal home would be rural, away from busy roads, where she can safely explore outdoors once she feels secure.
