Beautiful Duchess is about 2 years old, neutered and ready for her forever family.
She was hanging around houses in Lissyclearig for some months, most likely living off rubbish. She was very skinny and her ears were burnt from the sun.
At the beginning she was very frightened of people but once she was fed with proper food she gained some trust. Slowly, Duchess noticed how cosy houses are and tried to get inside, also let people rub her in exchange for something tasty. Once she wasn’t hungry anymore her playful and affectionate site came to light.

She is in a cattery at the moment, so she doesn’t have to worry about her next meal or the cold weather anymore.
She’d love a place to call her own though, with someone that will play and cuddle and give her the attention a duchess deserves ❤️

George urgently needs a foster home🚨

Cutie George contracted FELV and FIV and needs a loving home for the rest of his very short life. His life expectancy is 6 - 12 months and this very sweet and affectionate boy that came from the streets just wants a little love before he has to go over the rainbow bridge. He has no teeth, but has no problem with wet food or small pellets.

Because FELV and FIV are contagious in cats (don’t worry, humans can’t catch it), he needs to stay inside, with no contact to other cats.

If you can open up your heart for George, please let us know!

Fudge and Neala are the sweetest pair of cuddle bugs that met in foster care.
Fudge does not do well on his own, but is one content sweet little kitten with Neala on his side. Fudge is also very much a Mama's or Daddy's boy, always looking for cuddles and kisses.
Neala has the sweetest personality, playful and loves to give kisses - to Fudge or to her favorite human, she has enough for everyone. Both kittens were found in different parts of Kerry with their feral moms. The moms have been neutered and released, but Fudge and Neala are now looking for a forever home together. They could be indoor cats with or without outdoor access. They’re both litter trained and vaccinated.

-You can meet them in Killarney tomorrow-

Please apply here if you’d like to offer this pair a place in your home: https://www.klaws.ie/cat-adoption-page

What could we tell you about sweet Betty?

She’s about 2 years old and moved into her foster home the other week.
Even though she lived on a farm all her life she fit in perfectly with the humans, dogs, cats and horses in her current home. And turns out she’s just the perfect pet:
Betty is very sweet natured, adores her humans, loves affection, has good recall, is great on and off leash, is already house trained, non-destructive and has no separation anxiety. Doesn’t she sound heavenly?
It took her a day or two to get used to the resident dogs but now she loves to play with them.
Betty’s perfect match would be someone that is looking for a loyal companion and enjoys their daily walks or hikes, as she’s an outdoorsy girl🐕
Apply here if she sounds like the one for you: https://www.klaws.ie/dog-adoption-page

She is about 12 weeks old, still a bit shy but coming out of her shell. She is fully vaccinated, treated for fleas/worms and ready to move into her forever home.

HAPPY HALLOWEEN!! 👻🐾 Halloween is lots of fun for kids and adults alike, but it can be a bit tough for our furry friends. Keep Halloween fun and safe for your pets with these helpful tips! Many of these apply to both dogs and cats—when in doubt, err on the side of caution and have a great night. 🐱👇 1. Keep candles and Jack-o'-Lanterns out of reach to prevent burns and fire hazards. 2. Always bring pets inside before dark to keep them safe. 3. Update their ID and microchip information to ensure they're found if they get lost. 4. Avoid forcing them into costumes; try festive bandanas or collar charms instead. 5. Remember pets may not recognize people in costumes, which could frighten them. 6. Keep sweets out of reach, especially those with xylitol—it’s deadly. 7. Beware of fake blood and Halloween substances that may be poisonous. 8. Place decorations out of reach to prevent accidental chewing or ingestion. 9. Provide a safe space where they can relax and decompress. 10. Consult your vet if your pet shows signs of anxiety from the noise or festivities. For more on keeping pets safe today and tonight see this post (while it's written for dogs please note that many of these things apply to cats as well): https://www.klaws.ie/advice-for-dog-adopters/10-safety-tips-for-your-dog-on-halloween

You Need More Crunchie In Your Life! Here’s the deal. Once Crunchie likes you, he REALLY likes you. So, if you need a fan (we’re talking the kind of cat who won’t get out of your lap, who hates when you’re on a Zoom call, who thinks there's nothing better than circling your ankles), he’s your guy. This aficionado is on a See Food diet—he sees food, he eats it. 😜 He loves routines and knows exactly when it’s breakfast, dinner, and playtime. He’s basically a fuzzy little clock. He’s even figured out how to deal with the hoover. He has two hiding spots: one for when the noise starts and one for when it’s almost over. Smart, right? This cat’s a born companion and he can't wait to meet you. 💻 Visit our website to learn more about your new best friend. https://www.klaws.ie/cats-for-adoption?pgid=lh2gzn61-96231003-ff8c-4b32-976a-b52131aab684 👉 Or click below to apply to adopt him right away! https://www.klaws.ie/cat-adoption-page #AdoptDontShop #CatCompanion #SeeFoodDiet #RoutineLover #HooverHero #felvcats #ForeverHomeNeeded 📜KLAWS: HPT200001C
