We take in unwanted or stray cats and kittens, ensure they receive necessary veterinary care and find them their purrfect forever homes. All of our cats are fully vaccinated, neutered, microchipped, snap tested for for FIV and FeLV, and up to date with flea and worming treatment. They also go to their new homes with a ‘Gotcha Day’ package to ensure as smooth transition to help them settle into the

ir new homes. We have a fantastic team of volunteers who work around the clock with the day to day care of the cats and kittens in our rescue and have amazing vet support from Oaks Veterinary Centre, Cotteridge. Wellcat relies solely on donations, fundraising, volunteers and a supportive community. It is only through their continued dedication that the charity can continue running and helping hundreds of cats and kittens each year. We now run our visiting times by appointment only, so please email us prior to visiting to book an appointment. [email protected]

Happy from our sweet boy, Snowball. 🤍

Snowball seems to be doing okay and his appetite has improved, he’s heading to the vets this week for another blood test to check on his health progress.🥺

Until then, we are hoping he’s going to be okay and showering him with unlimited cuddles and special foods. Our boy gets to eat whatever he wants. 🤍

Bryony

Hello, my name is Brony. 😺 I’ve been staying at Wellcat for several months now, they call me a special cat so here’s my story… I first arrived at Wellcat with my three kittens, who were around 2 weeks old. I was very scared and protective of my babies. The Wellcat people said I was a fantastic mommy and they’re all grown up now so they will be leaving to their forever homes soon. A forever home sounds nice, I’m looking for one of my own. But not just any home, a really nice and quiet one with someone extra special who will understand me and love me unconditionally.❣️ You see, I’m not your typical cat, I’m still building my trust with people. I’ve made amazing progress and I promise I’m a very nice kitty! 😺 I liked being picked up now, they wrap me up in a blanket to make me feel safe and give me lots of kisses on the head. My favourite sound is actually kisses! I usually chatter back when they do it and have the sweetest purrs. 😻 I know I’m not the cat people are typically drawn to but maybe there is someone out there who will love me for me? I really would love a home of my own! ❣️ If you’re interested in adopting me, please email the Wellcat people on [email protected] Thank you for reading my story! Purrs & kisses from, Bryony 🐾

Happy Caturday and Bank Holiday weekend with love from a very purry Travis 😻♥️

Happy #purrsday 😺 Sound up to hear the extra cute purrs from Brody, Blair and Brooke today! Don’t worry, they had lots of cuddles after. 🥰

Here’s Travis enjoying a special paw massage after his bath today to help him clean up and feel nice too. 🥰We also have a cute photo of him having cuddles whilst drying off which we will share with you tonight. 😺

We have been growing cat grass for the rescue kitties and here is Sammy’s first reaction. 😺 Thank you to the kind supporter who donated some in one of our supermarket drop off locations! ♥️

For those of you who were following this poor guy, meet Travis. You'll be happy to hear that Travis has tested negative for FIV and FeLV. We don't know anymore at this time as we don't want to do too much too soon. He will be going back to the vets in a few days for some blood tests, it may be a while before we can castrate him though as he is very frail. But in the meantime he has been bathed and is safe. Here's a little video we put together to start his new journey. Rescued means to a better place. ♥️

Jared update.❣️ Wonderful news to report today for Jared's daily update. Previously his temperature has stayed around 39.9, it has been higher! But not today folks. Today we've seen an incredible turn around his temperature today is a fantastic 38! He looks bright and alert. He is trying to eat without help and if course, he is purring. We are all sooooo happy. 😺 He still is unable to see and he certainly isn't out of the woods yet, but to see him looking so much brighter is just amazing. This is all down to you guys and Tito's fund. Please keep donating, we still have a long road ahead of us.❤️‍🩹 How to donate: 🐾 Bank Transfer - Wellcat Rescue Charity Sort Code: 60-09-39 Account Number: 85254606 (Unfortunately Paypal is currently not working) ❗️Please use reference: JARED❗️ If you wish to donate directly to Oaks Veterinary Centre, please give them a call on 0121 459 4333 and let them know the donation is for Jared's treatment.

We hope you had a lovely bank holiday weekend. ♥️ Yesterday was a busy one for us! Whilst many people were enjoying the lovely sun, we were battling to keep Jay cool with ice, fans and cooling towels. Whilst the some of the team were caring for Jay, others were having a garden clean up. Ginny thought it was a fun game joining in with the sweeping so we took a moments break to let her play with the brush. 😹
