🔔🎆 It's firework season!

Fireworks season can be an exciting time, however, for cats, the loud bangs and bright lights can be very scary.

Classic FM is once again running their evenings on 5pm to 9pm on Saturday 2 November and Tuesday 5 November, when firework season is in its peak, for the most calming classical music. With a playlist of peaceful classical music for the nation’s pets, it should help keep your cats as calm and content as possible.

🐾 Cat of the Week: Meet Leona! 🐾 💖

This week’s spotlight is on Leona, a stunning 14-year-old tabby with a heart full of love and a quiet confidence that’s all her own. 🐱✨ After her previous owner became unwell, Leona is now searching for a cozy, loving home where she can enjoy her golden years in peace. 🌅

Leona is a gentle soul who absolutely adores human company, though she treasures her independence too. She’s happiest when she has the option to relax on her own or sit peacefully by your side. 💆‍♀️ One of her favorite things? Grooming time! Leona loves the fuss, and with a little brushing, her fur stays beautifully soft and sleek. 🐾💅

Though she’s mature, Leona still has a playful side that brings little sparks of joy and charm to every day. 🧶🎉 Her ideal home would be a calm, quiet place where she can enjoy gentle affection without too much hustle and bustle. 🌸 Leona would be the perfect companion for anyone seeking a mellow, devoted friend who brings warmth and love without being demanding. 💖

🏡 Could your home be the peaceful haven Leona has been waiting for? 🏡🐾

Have a look at Leona on our website today and discover the pure joy of her companionship! 🌈💕

🎃🐾 Halloween is almost here, but before you break out the costumes for your furry friend, think twice! 🐾🎃

Dressing up your cat in clothing might seem cute, but it can actually be really stressful for them. 😿 Cats love their freedom, and being confined in costumes can cause anxiety or even lead to injury as they try to escape. Instead of dressing them up, why not give them a cozy Halloween-themed blanket to snuggle in or a safe toy to play with? They’ll appreciate it so much more! 🧡🖤

Keep Halloween fun and stress-free for your feline friend. 🐈‍✨

🐾 Cat of the Week: Meet Tyskie! 🐾

This week, we’re thrilled to introduce Tyskie, a gentle and friendly girl with a musical purr that’s guaranteed to warm your heart. Tyskie came into our care due to an allergy in her previous home, and now she’s ready to find a loving forever home where she can be cherished and adored.

While Tyskie isn’t much of a lap cat, she enjoys staying close by and will always keep you company with her occasional chattiness—especially when you arrive! This sweet girl has a delightful way of bringing smiles as she keeps us updated with her “news.” 😊 Despite her age, Tyskie loves a bit of playtime and is always well-mannered when she plays. 🎾

✨ A little more about Tyskie:
💜She recently had a dental procedure and is feeling fantastic!

💜While she’s a mature lady, she’s still got a playful side and loves to interact.

💜Tyskie’s working on a weight-loss plan, so she’ll need a home willing to help her continue her progress.

💜She would thrive in a calm, quiet environment as the only pet, though she’d also do well in a family setting where she can enjoy lots of attention.

If you’re looking for a friendly, mellow companion who will brighten your days with her gentle nature and musical purrs, Tyskie could be the perfect match! 🏡💕

Could Tyskie be the one to complete your home?
✨ Adopt Tyskie today and let her bring joy and love into your life!

🐾 Cat of the Week: Meet Poppy! 🐾

Say hello to Poppy, a sweet and loving girl who’s ready to find her forever home! 💕 Poppy came into our care after her owner became unwell, and now she’s eager to bring her endless affection and playful spirit into a new family.

This chatty lady loves being around people and will happily rub up against you, seeking attention and giving her signature purrs. She enjoys being brushed, and you’ll often find her chatting away as you give her the fuss she craves. 🐱💬

✨ A little about Poppy:
💜 Poppy has a history of cat flu, but she’s doing well and just needs daily eye lubricant to keep her comfortable.

💜 She recently had a dental procedure and is now feeling fantastic!

💜 While she’ll settle on your lap for some snuggles, Poppy is an active and confident cat who loves to explore.

💜Previously living in an adult-only home, her outgoing nature may also suit a home with older children (10+).

If you’re looking for a friendly, vocal companion who will brighten every day with her affectionate nature, Poppy could be the perfect match for you! 🏡

Ready to meet Poppy and bring her home?
✨ Adopt Poppy today and welcome this bundle of love into your life! 💖

🔦 Spotlight Saturday: Meet Bob! 🔦
🐾 Your future snuggle buddy is ready for his forever home! 🐾

Meet Bob, a sweet and affectionate boy who’s searching for a calm, peaceful home where he can truly shine. 💖 Bob came into our care after struggling to settle in his previous home, but with the right environment and a little patience, he’s ready to show just how loving and loyal he can be.

Bob may start off a little shy around new faces, but once he feels safe, you’ll find him happily curled up on your lap for hours of cozy snuggles. He loves nothing more than being close to his humans, soaking up all the love and attention you can give! 🛋️

✨ Why Bob is special:
💜He’s a bit shy at first but becomes incredibly affectionate once he feels secure.
💜Bob recently had a dental procedure and is now feeling fantastic!
💜He’s sensitive to loud noises and sudden changes, so he’s looking for a quiet, adult-only home or one with children 12+ who can provide a steady, calm environment.
💜He enjoys being groomed and will purr contentedly while sitting on your lap, once he’s built trust.

Bob is looking for a patient owner who will give him the time and space to settle in and bond at his own pace. If you’re searching for a gentle, loyal companion who will reward your patience with endless love, Bob could be your perfect match! 🏡

Is your home the safe haven Bob’s been waiting for?
✨ Adopt Bob today and let him bring peace and love into your life! 💕
