Meet Zuri, a handsome ex-stray with the most stunning eyes who is looking for his perfect home ♡

Zuri came into care after living as a stray. He had no microchop and no one came forward to claim him from any social media posts.

Though he was scared at first about his new circumstances, the most he did was hiss, never lashing out at his fosterers. Like most ex-strays, he was speedily won over by food and treats and has now gotten used to his new house!

He has grown more confident and sociable, enjoying strokes and playing with his feather stick, balls and shoelaces. Sometimes he can get a little excited when he's having strokes and will hold onto your hand with his paws or mouth but he is extremely gentle and never gets his claws out or bites.

He's a lovely boy and has even started joining his fosterers in bed for a bedtime cuddle!

For everyone stocking up on hay for the Christmas season, just a reminder that we are part of the Hay Shed's rescue scheme!

Every time you buy hay or forage from the Hay Shed and enter the code ARC at checkout, we'll get 8% store credit which we can then use to stock up for our foster bunnies and guinea pigs!

Hay shed provides plenty of types of hay so there should be something for every-bun!

Thank you for your support, and huge thanks to The Hay Shed!

The gorgeous Winnie is looking for her forever home 🏠

She loves having a stretch of the legs in a safe space when she’s awake, she will need an enriching set up with lots to do and plenty of bedding to dig and burrow in.
She’s approximately 6 months old and arrived in our care along with her babies, she’s now ready to find her very own home.

Please note, we do Not rehome any of our animals as Christmas or birthday gifts!

Meet Vader, named for the unique noise he makes when he purrs! ❤️

Vader had a tough life until he came into our care. He was taken to a vet with a nasty bite wound on his face where unfortunately an abscess had formed. He's all better now but does have a slight scar which gives him a slightly wonky smile

He is a very affectionate cat and is extremely chatty when he wants attention. Vader likes a good brush, loves his cuddles and most of all, he LOVES his food.

At first Vader had a difficult time adjusting to the other animals in his fosterer’s house but he did warm up to them and is now completely not botherd by them. He has been seen cuddled up and cleaning/being cleaned by others since having his unlimited freedom of the outdoors.

Vader will benefit from a home with experienced cat owners who will be able to introduce him to the family at his own pace. Unfortunately while Vader is now used to small dogs and other cats, large dogs may be too much for him.

Meet our gorgeous little lady, Tina!

She came into our care with her 3 kittens and a male cat but is now ready for a lovely home where she can settle down by herself.

She has boundless energy and is very inquisitive. She has taken to one of her fosterers and will follow him around the flat wherever he goes!

Tina has bags of personality and will lay down on the bed at night, snuggled up to her fosterers.

She’s a real live wire!

Please meet Apollo & Diana 🤍🤍. They've not had the best start in life having been removed from an unsuitable home. Apollo is the lop and Diana has the uppy ears. She arrived with a bit of a back leg issue (which she copes with without issue) and when she was neutered the vets found she had uterine cysts 😢. But despite this, she is the sweetest girl and deserves a new start in life with Apollo in a loving family 🤍🤍
