Look what arrived last night - is there anything cuter than kittens?!

Indoor home needed for loquacious little limpet 💜💜
Kenya is blind and totally amazing - she finds her food, her litter tray and climbs the scratch post no problem at all. She was hit by a car as a kitten and now, at 6 years, she's adapted brilliantly and is a happy little soul.
She'll chat your ears off with her prpps and chirps and she'll have cuddles and snuggles for as long as you let her - she just loves her humans!
She doesn't interact with the other cats she arrived with and definitely doesn't appreciate them jumping on her and trying to play so she needs to be an only pet.
She needs a quieter home with a stable routine - no moving the furniture every five minutes!
She's come from Romania on a 45 hour road trip, got used to a foster home and had a vet check all in 8 days and is so chilled - did I say she was amazing?!

Good morning Fluffy fans!!
After another week of antibiotics and Metacam she finally got the all clear from the vet yesterday and started her vaccinations :)
So no more cone for her protection ..or ours...but she's now turned into the softest, soppiest ball of floof going.
She's moved on to another foster home to introduce her to things like the TV and to let her have a proper mooch about and with a fosterer who she doesn't associate with chucking disgusting tablets down her throat! And she has a lovely home lined up with an adopter who's been waiting patiently and was willing to take her on as her original hissy ball of fury so she's going to be very pleasantly surprised by this new Fluffy incarnation who just can't stop purring and making biscuits 😊
Thanks to everyone who so kindly donated towards her treatment she gets her happy ending 💜
Quick update for all the Fluffy fans!
Her morphine-based painkiller made her feel very nauseous so it was a job to get her to eat post op. Now she's finished the course, her appetite is back with a vengeance. The vet was concerned about her weight loss until she realised her original weight included all 4 legs 🤣
She's now allowed out for a 10 minute mooch twice a day and she's coping just fine on three legs. Unfortunately her wound did become infected so she had an antibiotic jab yesterday and back for another check up tomorrow.
Fingers crossed it clears as we don't want to have to open it up again to be flushed out.
She's in good form though, quite chatty and is becoming very friendly, loves a fuss and a stroke now she realises how good they feel.
Think that feral card is well and truly in the bin now 😻😻
A very happy Caturday from Bertie and Flash in their lovely new home 💜
These sweet kittens were thrown in a river to drown - it's hard to believe someone could be so evil.
Have a wonderful life precious babies :)

Patient home needed for our little broken biscuit 💜
Travis is looking for a special home who can understand he is a bit of damaged soul. He is around 10 years old and previously lived a rough life sleeping/hiding underneath a bush behind the shops of a busy high street. He would dash out for some food but soon retreat as he was sometimes picked on by the local fox, we guess the fox knew he was weak. Indeed he was in a lot of pain. He was rescued, snipped and chipped but, as suspected, his teeth were in an awful way and nearly all of them were removed. Therefore going forward will be on a wet food diet as his gums will need to harden up and fully recover. Travis is a very timid cat but he will let you stroke him, he just needs slow and gentle reassurance. He is far too lovely to be a farm cat!
He is quite happy keeping himself to himself, having a snooze on the top deck of the cat tower but when he's scared he hides under a blanket pretending he is invisible.
He is looking for a very quiet home where his new human will just let him go at his own pace . His fosterer has had him inside the house and spent lots of time with him but he may be one that takes a bit longer than a couple of weeks. He will relax in your presence but he is yet to make the first move.
We appreciate it would be nice to have an affectionate cat from the get go but rescue cats like these are a little broken and need someone to share their big heart by mending theirs.
Neutered, chipped, had first vaccination plus comes with 5 weeks free insurance. FIV/FeLV negative.

Luigi says thank you to all you lovely, kind peeps out there - his treatment is all covered 🥳🥳
In celebration he's decided he's a lap cat now and will even accept soppy kisses!
Cat friends, we need your help...👇
Monty needs a helping hand 😔❤️
"Monty was a stray who came from Speedwell and had been living in local gardens. He was unneutured as well as having some snuffly sneezy symptoms. He was caught by BWCR and taken into foster where he was neutered, had a dental and tested positive for FIV.
He's had a swab taken which revealed he also has calicivirus which is a respiratory infection that is contagious to other cats (cat flu). I need to find him an indoor foster home where he will be the only cat and try him on a new medicine. As he can still be a little sneezy ideally a wipe clean room like a large bathroom or utility.
He isn't friendly friendly nor is he nasty. He just needs someone a little patient to help him along and take things slowly whilst he tries to recover. I also really need to consider his quality of life as an outdoor pen is not a life for him as he just won't get better outside."
Monty is another boy let down by his humans - if he'd been neutered he'd be much less likely to wander, fight and become infected with FIV. If he'd been vaccinated he probably wouldn't have calicivirus either.
BWCR will pay his vet bills at Fernlea in Kingswood or Hanham, he just needs somewhere soft to land now.
💜💜 Angel's rescue story by volunteer Tia - why we do what we do :)
And she has a new home to go to already. Who's cutting onions in here 🤣🤣
"Yesterday I went to scan a cat that had been hanging in a car park in Longwell Green. She was described as an old cat, maybe with thyroid issues and a croaky miaow.
When I arrived it was immediately clear this cat hadn't had a home, or a good meal for that matter, in a long time. She was severely underweight, riddled with fleas, ticks and with an ungroomed dirty coat😥
The chip details revealed the cat was 13 and registered to an address 11 miles away. I contacted the number however it didn't even ring through. We scanned all the lost and found, local groups and cheked details from her chip and we managed to locate the owner ......who told us she had a cat years ago but she took it to the Cats and Dogs home because the cat was a little too friendly with her daughter's baby.
On the way to the Cats and Dogs home she stopped in a bookies to ask for directions and they ended up offering to have the cat. So maybe the cat had got lost from there and they didn't change the chip details? After triple checking the name we discovered this wasn't actually the cat in question but her previous cat before this!! Around SEVEN YEARS ago this cat went missing from her house and that was that until yesterday. Unsuprisingly the owner isn't interested and doesn't want her back so this adorable little lady will stay with me. 🥲💔❤
Just how she has survived and not been saved before this is beyond me! It baffles me because she is really friendly, not like your typical scared stray people can't catch. I wonder that if someone had started feeding her at some point along her journey, why would she leave? She's very underweight so she hasn't been regularly fed and appearance is uncared for.
Whatever the story may be, she couldn't have been more thankful for a good night's sleep under a heatlamp in a dry and cosy bed 🥰😍

Happy Caturday from Smokey 💜
Less than 2 weeks in and he is a joy! We keep in touch with his previous owners and love him to bits just as they did.
Thank you for considering us, it's been a smooth process and we are all very pleased that Smokey is so settled and happy.
Best wishes Amanda & John
Indoor home needed for quirky black gummy bear, Toby 💜
This cheeky little black panther can’t quite decide if he’s a cat or a bird! His cutesy little grumbles, chirps and tweets generally mean he wants attention, food or head rubs.
Toby came into BWCR as a stray. The vet has estimated him to be around 3 years old (given that he’s had most of his teeth taken out, it’s a little difficult to tell his exact age!). He’s tested positive for FIV so needs to be a housecat now and BWCR will pay vet bills for any issues FIV-related.
Toby is a spritely character and high up there on his list of favourite things to do are tail chasing and convincing you to play chase or hide and seek with him (you approach, he’ll run off, but he’ll be sure to turn to make sure you’re following, before he dashes off again!). He’s been known to swipe unexpectedly, but never hurts you - it seems he's still learning how to cat. For this reason he needs an adult-only home.
He'll be losing his foster home on Sept 30th unfortunately so it would be lovely to get him rehomed before them.
Neutered, chipped, vaccinated plus comes with 5 weeks free insurance.

Sound up for a stentorian snoring Sid in his new home 🤣
Huge thanks to everyone who helped catch him, fund his numerous ops, fostermum Tia who took great care of him and adopted mum Rachel who has landed herself a little treasure.
Have a wonderful life Sid 💜
💐🌻🌷 HAPPY MOTHERS DAY to all our human and cat mums 💐🌻🌷
We love superfriendly cats but they're a nightmare to get decent pictures of 🤣
Sorry for the poor video but Lynx and Alice won't sit still and want fuss and cuddles all the time.
These two are great with children 🥳🥳🥳
Lynx is about 6 months and Alice around 3 months - they are very best friends and have lived happily with two young children. Unfortunately their mum was struggling so they came to us as an emergency last week.
They're desperate to be out of their crate - it's huge but they want to be back wreaking havoc and it was all we had to keep them safe at the time, as we're overflowing with moggies.
Lynx has a grey/black coat with stripes - very unusual and handsome, loves his food and can be heard purring up a storm here. Alice is dainty and sweet but can hold her own when he forgets how much smaller she is! They'll need a garden away from busy roads - they have lots of energy.
Vet checked, chipped and had first vaccinations. Lynx is booked in to lose his crown jewels this week, plus come with 5 weeks free insurance.

We have a very special boy up for adoption today - Flipper !!! 💜
Our brave little boy, with only two functioning legs, was found dumped in a bag but just look at him go now!
He's had one leg amputated and we had to wait until he'd stopped growing to see if his other duff leg needed fusing so he could use it as a prop. The good news is he doesn't need another op :)
Vet Matt is super pleased with him and nothing stops this little guy - he loves zooming about including up and down stairs - he loves stairs! He's just happy to be alive and doesn't let anything get him down.
Because his front leg is twisted he doesn't walk on his pad on that paw and needs soft surfaces to avoid getting a sore so he needs carpets rather than wood/laminate floors. He also loves a bit of outdoor time but must be supervised - an area of soft lawn to play on and high fences are a must to keep him enclosed. He's a good boy and toilets outside but will happily use a litter tray and stay indoors on rainy or cold days!
Adopters must be careful with open doors and windows too, to keep him safe, so a quieter home without too many comings and goings would be best.
He's an adorable bundle of ginger gorgeousness and his fostermum will be in floods so, if you're the lucky new owners, make sure you take a box of tissues with you!
About 1 yr old, neutered, chipped, vaccinated plus comes with 5 weeks free insurance.

Catsanova the mini panther 💜
Catsanova is a very affectionate, large boy. He purrs on contact and loves to cuddle on the bed. He is initially quite shy and needs some time to settle in but is easily tempted by the promise of a bit of fuss. He would suit a quiet home without other pets and young children and needs a garden away from busy roads as he's desperate to be out and about .
About 5 yrs, neutered, chipped, vaccinated plus comes with 5 weeks free insurance.
