💜 This gentleman is known as ‘Sad eyes’ by the people who feed him in Barra. He eluded us while we were there this week but the kind people who feed him kept trying and yesterday they brought him to Cat Central. Bless him he certainly looks like he’s had it hard out there. His neighbour Hucknell was slightly offended that he sat on his head as soon as he got into the pen but they’ve picked a bed each now and have settled well.

Tomorrow he’ll be booked into the vet and have his eye looked at, we believe it’s too late to save it and the best course of action for his health will be to remove it. Hopefully once this is done and he’s neutered he may decide he likes being indoors as the lovely couple who brought him up would love him to stay with them. We’ll keep you posted how his vet visit goes but if anyone can donate towards his treatment we would be very grateful. This guy deserves all our help, bless him.

💜 ANOTHER BARRA TRIP 💜

Two of our volunteers made another dash to Barra this week when we were informed about a colony of cats with 4 young kittens that needed our help. Of course not ones to do things by halves and having gone all that way we decided to visit Vatersay too and help with some wild living cats that were getting out of control. We also collected ‘Hucknell’ a most handsome gentleman who makes Glengall his home. As he has so many great folk who care about and feed him this gorgeous ginger gentleman will be neutered next week and return as soon as possible to his home on Barra. So we came home with 13 in total!

So it goes without saying these guys are going to be with us over Christmas, this means our amazing volunteers will have to be out over the holidays caring for them all! We honestly can’t thank them enough, they’re an awesome group of people!

It also means of course that we have larger than usual costs ahead to care for them all and neuter and treat them. If you can spare any amount towards their care we would be most grateful. Hopefully Santapaws 🎅 will visit them all here at Cat Central and bring them cosy blankets, new toys and some Turkey! 🦃

💜 ADOPTED💜

This gorgeous little girl is around 14 weeks old, here’s what her foster Mum has to say about her….

She is a cheeky wee character, wants to play all the time. Her favourite toys are at the end of a string! She absolutely loves her food and always thinks someone has got something tastier than her. She loves treats but lik-I-lix are her most favourites. She also likes to look out of the window. She seems to not be phased by other cats so would probably fit in well with another cat. Older children would be best for her as she can get startled easily. Loves getting brushed and always greets you with the cutest wee hello chirp when you come in. She’ll always be a small cat, she’s so very dainty, with the cutest wee face but beautiful things do come in small packages.

I’m going to really miss her. She’s going to be the sweetest girl for someone

💜ALL RESERVED💜

We have a real treat for you tonight, three crazy 10 week old little siblings who are looking for homes with families who have other pets kids and loads of energy as they’re exhausting! They’re all in foster and when we say we’re ready for a holiday we mean it! Haha. They’re not any crazier than any other kittens obviously but are very energetic and playful, they adore the other pets in their foster homes so they’ll definitely need another resident cat or dogs who want to play.

Black and white kitten is a boy
Dark tortie a girl
Tabby a girl

If you can offer one or two of these guys a home please send us a pm with info about your family and any other pets, thanks

💜ADOPTED💜

This absolutely stunning brother and sister are looking for their new family. They came over from Uist and were trapped several days apart. They were so happy to be reunited with each other that we can’t bare to part them since they got back together in their foster home 🥰. The little girl is a bit quieter than the boy so perhaps a home that’s not crazy busy with very young children would be best.

If you’d like to be considered to adopt them please send a private message with your details, thank you

‼️This very thin wee guy has been appearing at the top of the Cearns the last while. He always seems to be outside & the member of the public who contacted us is concerned. If this is your cat could you please get in touch? ‼️

💜ADOPTED💜

This is a very special girl to all of us. If you remember when the Uist cats arrived in care one was petrified and heavily pregnant. The day after they arrived she gave birth to a beautiful littler of kittens. She was an incredible Mum to her babies and protected them fiercely from us and we all assumed once they went to their homes she would need a barn home, then an amazing thing happened. Once freed from the responsibility of motherhood this sweet young girl became a kitten again! She started to show us she had the most playful nature, she’s absolutely obsessed with toys! So we took the decision to place her in foster in a home to see how she’d get on.

She’s absolutely thrived in foster! She now enjoys being stroked, purrs so loudly and is still absolutely obsessed with every toy she is given! We now feel she needs a wonderful home of her own, other cats would be a bonus but not a necessity in her new family. Obviously due to her past a quieter home would be best to give her the time to get to know you and trust you. So if you feel you can offer this special little lady a home where she can thrive without pressure to be a lap cat right away please get in touch as she deserves the world 🥰

PS she’s spayed already so you won’t have the costs for that

Western Isles Support for Cats and Kittens (WISCK)

This page is the central information source for the work of WISCK and for public information about lost, found and ready-to-be-homed cats and kittens in the Western Isles.

Everything we do is entirely relient on fundraising so if you would like to help, there are a few really easy ways to do so:


  • You can join ‘Easy Fundraising’ which will donate to our cause everytime you shop through one of their designated online stores i.e. Amazon, Argos, Ebay etc. It doesn’t cost you anything extra so is a really fab way to raise funds:
