Another 'Adoption Spotlight' 💞😻

💛 Meet Claude & Bisous 💛

From the very start, these two have only ever had eyes for each other. Out of their whole litter, they’ve formed a very special bond – curling up belly-to-belly, napping in sync, and bouncing around like two little whirlwinds of joy!

Bisous (her name means kisses 💋) is a bold, playful girl who loves fuss and attention, while Claude is her sweet, affectionate brother who melts for tummy rubs and head boops. They are confident and full of character, truly unique kittens! 😻 Claude even grasps your hand gently when you stop petting him, as if to say 'No, don't stop!' 🥺 Together, they’re the perfect balance – and truly inseparable 🐾

They’re looking for a loving home together where they can keep sharing their adventures, cuddles, and kisses! Could that be with you? 🏡💕

👉 Read more and apply via the ‘Enquire about Claude & Bisous’ button at the bottom of their profile below! 👇

UPDATE: Safe relocation secured! 💞🙏 If anyone else wishes to offer a safe home for outdoor cats like her in the future, please feel free to get in touch as we often run into little ones like her in need!

EMERGENCY Rural Mouser Relocation Needed - Extremely Short Deadline 😿🐭

Unfortunately, we have a semi feral to feral cat from a very dangerous location who is in immediate, emergency need of a safe farm or rural location to relocate to. Our volunteers only became aware of this situation yesterday, after they spotted a young mother's kitten that had been killed 😭 This mother was running the busy road where her 4-5 month old kitten passed away, and was very distressed 😞

This mother has now been fully healthy checked, neutered, vaccinated, flea worm treated, FIV/FeLV viral tested negative and we have a very short window of time to find her a safer place to go 😿 There was mention that she had three kittens at a time, but with one deceased (and no sign of the others at the moment) we aren't sure. Our volunteers will have traps out this weekend just in case - so if you could possibly accommodate more than one, it would be appreciated but we aren't sure at this time (again, they would be fully vetted and neutered as well if there are any surviving kittens). We are loathe to return her to such an unsafe location, but we truly have no other options if we cannot find her a safe place to go 😞

All you need is to have ⬇️
- A safe location for her/them to live, and hunt (providing excellent pest control)
- A secure shed/garage/barn etc to be enclosed for a short time initially, to prevent them becoming lost
- Willing to provide a little supplementary food to top up hunting

As this is a very short notice relocation, we will provide litter tray and litter (only required for the short time closed in), a little starter food and we can transport anywhere in Northern Ireland.

If able to provide a safe relocation, please email [email protected] 🙏 Please share to give this poor girl a chance 🥹

Wonderful young mum, Tawny 😻💞

Following our website update yesterday about lots of new faces seeking homes, we thought we'd start to highlight some and let them have the spotlight individually for a bit!

Tawny (1.5yrs old) might be a young mum, but oh my is she a good one - so good, we suspect she might have actually stolen her son Peregrine from another mum 🤭 Tawny is a DOTE - she is such an incredibly laid back, affectionate and chill character. She loves cuddles and comfort - she even dissociates and stares unblinkingly into the abyss in pure joy when she's reallyyyy happy, such as when she's on a soft blankie or making biscuits in her fluffy donut bed while her babies safely eat 🥺 Her fosterers affectionately say 'Tawny is lost in the sauce again!'

Tawny is an utter joy, and the most content and happy wee cat we've had in a long time, for being in our care so long raising her young ones. Tawny is seeking a loving home alongside one of her much adored children - she loves them all so much!

If interested, read more about Tawny and her lovely kittens on our website below - and use the 'Enquire about' button at the bottom of their profile pages to submit an adoption application! ⬇️💞

URGENT Semi-Feral Mouser Relocations Required ⬇️🤕😿

Big thank you to the family who offered our first few cats from this situation a loving countryside location to live freely and safely! 🙏

Unfortunately, we have had a few more faces lured towards an extremely dangerous traffic area due to competition for food - we urgently need to try get these cats removed to safety before they are hit by cars, as we received more concerned reports about this today 😔⚠️

They will come:
🌟Neutered
🌟 Flea worm treated
🌟 A one off vaccination
🌟Fully health checked
🌟FIV/FeLV disease tested

They just need a safe location to live (they'd provide excellent pest control!), a little supplementary feeding and require a secure barn/shed/garage etc to spend a short time initially, so they don't become lost on release.

Please share to find these young cats safe homes 😺🐀🐭

🚨 Safe Relocations for Semi-Feral Cats Needed 🚨

We are urgently seeking safe relocation homes for young cats who are currently at serious risk, due to their increasing confidence in a very VERY dangerously high-traffic and busy area 😔

🩺 These cats are already/will be:
✅ Neutered
✅ Health-checked
✅ Disease Tested (FIV/FeLV negative)
✅ Had a one off vaccination
✅ Flea and worm treated

🐾 These young cats (majority around a year old or a bit less - a few are a tiny bit older) are healthy, lively, and excellent natural mousers! Their sociability varies — a few are quite forward around people, but none are suitable for indoor living or wish to be touched. They’ll be valued for their pest control skills given shelter, supplementary food, and time to settle.

They would need a secure garage, barn, stables, shed etc to be enclosed initially to prevent them becoming lost.

⚠️ At least 4 cats really urgently need relocating (not necessarily all together) due to the immediate dangers they’re facing. There are quite a few more than this that also are not safe, but they are at least more feral to stay further from danger - so any more safe relocations would be appreciated!

Please share, and if you (or someone you know) could offer a safe place, please email [email protected] or call 03000120314 to leave a message with our helpline for a callback. You’ll be helping give these cats the second chance they deserve! 🙏

URGENT PRIVATE REHOMING APPEAL 🙏

Jet (5yrs old) is seeking a loving new home, a heartbreaking decision for his owner due to their ill health and urgent circumstances surrounding this 😔 Jet is a sweet little cat, who has been used to a chill, quiet home. Jet's situation came to our attention through one of our vets, and so we know Jet is neutered and in good health. Jet has enjoyed outdoor access through a window in a quiet area, so would likely prefer this to continue. He's just looking a chill, safe place with someone to enjoy his company!

Unfortunately, like other rescues at the moment, we are completely at capacity to take in more😔 but we wanted to try help find a safe new home for Jet! So Jet is NOT within the care of Cats Protection (yet, as soon as we can we will if no home is found) - but in this special case, we will be helping to facilitate applications getting to his owner to make any arrangements 🙏

So if interested in offering Jet a home, please email [email protected] or call 03000120314 and leave your details with our helpline (they will forward this to us).

Please share to find Jet a loving home - his owner will have such peace of mind knowing he is safe and loved 🙏

EXTRA SPECIAL HOME APPEAL 🤗
Do you have a canine, that is looking for a feline in their life? 😺🐶💞

Our beautiful, special little boy William Wonky (8 months old) is seeking a loving home 🥺 We have learned from previous homings that this little guy is in need of a special person, a special home... And a special dog!

W***y Wonky went through a really tough time in his early life. Abandoned, he ran to people for help - now, he's a healthy boy that loves life, cuddles and fun! He's an energetic, affectionate and completely unique little character who loves to be in on the action - we've truly never met a cat like him!

He is seeking a strictly indoor only home due to being completely deaf, having one eye, a permanent head tilt (from prev damage to his ears, not an ongoing health problem), and having a fear of absolutely nothing 😂 He is great with children, and he LOVES other animals to play with, no introduction at all required.

Unfortunately however, this level of forwardness (paired with him being deaf and visually impaired to miss some social cues) has meant that while William loves them, other cats do not like William 🥺 so we are seeking a home with a *very* cat friendly dog. He absolutely ADORES all dogs, and since cats just don't understand this silly little man, he is looking for a bouncy canine friend to really bond with. In his prev home, he absolutely adored his bouncy dog friend and was cuddled up in bed almost instantly with him - but unfortunately there was an existing resident cat, and he had to leave his new best friend 😭

This is obviously a very special home, so please consider sharing this - his forever home is out there somewhere! 🙏❤️
