☝🏾I WOULD ADOPT BUT….💖🏡🐈
The most often thing we hear, I would adopt but.. followed by excuses like,
💖I want a certain breed,
💖I want a kitten,
💖I want a certain colour,
💖I want a promised temperament,
💖I want one good with kids,
💖I want one good with my dog/ other pets
Please don’t forget to look at rescue groups, 9/10 you’ll find everything you’re looking for;
💖I want a breed💖
This year alone we’ve had over 20 breed cats come into care, this includes; ragdoll, Siamese, Russian blue, Brittish blue, Scottish fold, bengals and many more just to name a few.
These are our forgotten cats often purchased because of their looks however owners have not done extensive research and they end up in pounds and given to us, this also includes all the forgotten purebred parents who are no longer used for breeding.
💖I want a kitten💖
We always have kittens in care, oh you want a baby kitten, under one month? Did you know kittens under the age of 8-10 weeks are not actually heavy enough to be desexed. So you will never acquire one through a rescue nor should you try. The ideal age a kitten should be adopted is 10 weeks, when they are already vaccinated twice to protect them from diseases,their personalities have formed oh and they’re also fully litter trained by this age. They’ve also been socialised with other cats and dogs also by this age.
💖I want a certain colour💖
We have many cats and kittens of all colours coming into care, it’s always better to ask about their temperaments than their colours. We’ve had some of the most beautiful looking cats with the worst temperaments and the most basic coloured cats have the perfect nature and personality.
💖I want a promised temperament💖
Even adopting a purebred won’t guarantee you a promised temperament. Our cats and kittens live in our homes with our carers, we know them inside out and can often explain their temperaments.
💖Did you know we also have a cat matching service, where we can match the ideal kitten to you given certain specifics and what you’re looking for in a kitten💖
💖I want one good with kids💖
Our foster homes have kids and often expose them to kids. They are socialised and we can recommend who would thrive in a home with kids and who loves kids.
💖I want one good with dogs/other pets💖
The same way they’re exposed to kids they’re exposed to dogs, most of our foster homes also have dogs and other animals. We can also match our cats based on temperament who would also a dog and who wouldn’t.
These are many excuses that people often use, can’t adopt that’s ok you can help us in many other ways. Share our posts, like our posts; get the word out about us; recommend us to people you know who are looking for a kitten. 💖🎀
