**FOR ADOPTION**

Lean and long limbed, this 12 year old honey is incredibly difficult to photograph, because she wants to be up close and personal with you the instant she spots you!

However take it from us that Dudette (or Dudie to those in her inner circle) has all the attributes of a super model thanks to her being part Russian Blue - as noted by Graham, the wonderful mobile cat groomer; that long tail and the thick undercoat quite gives her ancestry away. Note that she has had a lion cut in preparation for these hot summer days and we think she is absolutely rocking her new fur style. It's also a bonus that she loves being brushed so once her fur grows back, that magnificent coat will be very easy to keep in shape (see her "Before" photo).

Dudette is a chirper and a lapcat who loves, loves, LOVES smooches and she would make the ideal companion for a homebased person on their own or an older couple who may be missing having time with their grandies. She snoozes happily on her foster Auntie's knee and makes suggestions for improving posts such as this one!

Of course she has been desexed, microchipped, vaccinated, defleaed and wormed - so if you'd like to have a chat about her, contact her Honorary Aunty Helen 0274 070 659 or mailto:[email protected]

**FOR (SPECIAL) ADOPTION**

UPDATE 1 DEC 2024:
Everyone loves this spirited little tart! Beryl has fought her way back to good health and she comes with a bonus hilarious sense of humour!! The Vet saw her on Friday and was very happy with her - so we're on a serious hunt for her new family, someone who will love her, care for her (she will need 0.3ml of Redipred every second day for the rest of her life to ensure her gums stay as healthy as they can) and give her the time and attention she so craves as an only princess.
***********************************************************************
SEPT 2024:
Just when we thought we had heard it all, Beryl's history almost brought this rescue group to tears.

Found far from any homes (30km~) or indeed, any sign of habitation at all, Beryl weighed in at just over 2kg. It was clear that she had had a hard time merely surviving let alone thriving and she was whisked away to a local vet, who pronounced her severely emaciated and with a mouth full of rotten teeth.

Dentals are one of the biggest costs that rescue groups face and the reality is that often, because of that they are a death sentence.
Happily, a very special fundraising group came to the party (thank you Aunty Meg) and so Beryl had her dental and is now the proud owner of just 4 incisors! But that doesn't stop this determined wee soul from eating both wet AND dry food and happily she is putting on weight and loving life in general.

Beryl loves routines (we don't dare deviate without her permission!!), sunbathing, playing with her human team of servants, has a real streak of mischief in her, has great recall (we think she might be part dog!), and would make someone a brilliant companion as she's an excellent listener :-)

She has been desexed, microchipped, vaccinated, defleaed and wormed - plus she has been delcared fit for adoption by her personal veterinary team, so she is ready to rock & roll.

If you'd like to know more about her, contact her Honorary Aunty Helen 0274 070 659 or [email protected]

**FOR ADOPTION**

As you lovely folk know, we normally only take in adult cats - usually older adult cats - so having a young 2 year old in our midst is something of a novelty - especially when we suspect he is the child of a goblin!!

Riccardo actually was in the care of another rescue and he was adopted at one of their Adoptathons, but for some obscure reason, he was returned. That rescue group couldn't get to him to collect him and so since he was local to us, we took him in - and we're very happy that we did.

This young buck is hilarious. He's full of mischief, loves nothing better than a full on game of ping pong (he can run like the wind and take corners like they are chicanes), will sneak into other cats' rooms to sample their food, sidles up for loves and pats any time anyone is within his reach, and generally keeps us highly entertained and on our toes.

He's a complete smooch and will detain you for as long as he can for pats and smooches. It helps that he's a bit of a looker - no one but no one can resist those "love me-love me" eyes.

We think Riccardo would do best in a family that is busy and that has someone around for at least a big part of the day. He's still young and very kitten like and although he loves snoozing in the afternoons, he really does prefer to be with his chosen someone(s). He would also do well, we suspect, as the big brother of a kitten or younger cat - or even a dog (he WILL be the Boss!!).

He has been desexed, microchipped, vaccinated, defleaed and wormed and so he is ready to be adopted. If you'd like to know more about him or meet him, contact his Honorary Aunty Helen 0274 070 659 or mailto:[email protected]

Not two of ours - not even cats 😁 - but CatsnCare knows them well thanks to us sharing their location. They are brilliant wee pups and deserve fabulous homes.

So please do what you folk do so well and share this post far and wide, and find these two their forever families ###

**FOR ADOPTION - STILL**

**UPDATED - ADOPTED!! And they now have a Mum, a Dad and 3 human siblings for these girls to love on** ###

We know we've featured this Mother & Daughter, Pecan & Cashew before, but we just had to post this because what are the chances of the remaining two family members posing in EXACTLY the same pose as Peanut & Butters - Pecan's sons! And THAT photo got them an absolutely fabulous home, so we're hoping this just might do the same for these two cuties.

The force must certainly run strong in this wee family :-)

Contact their Honorary Aunty Helen if you'd like to meet them or have a chat about them - text 0274 070 659 or [email protected]

**FOR ADOPTION - THE NUT CLAN**

Like Mother like Daughter!! Rarely have we seen 2 cat/kittens so relaxed and confident and so determined to live life to the fullest. They even nap hard - as evidenced by their sleeping style!

They came from an area with a lot of cats in it and the local vigilantes decided to cull (illegally) as many cats as they could. To keep this truly lovely wee family safe, they were uplifted and left in the care the a local vet clinic team - who were having a "nutty' day, hence the names.

Mama Pecan is an exquisite little cat who has managed to raise 3 stunning kittens who are all supremely well balanced, superbly outgoing and complelely human focussed - just like her! Not bad for a single Mum!!

She is the head of the Nut Clan and in her own right, is a fabulous wee feline. She is very affectionate, goes out of her way to meet and greet all new people - but will stand her ground with dogs and unfamiliar cats - and for such a small unit, is surprisingly confident in her own skin.

She loves being picked up and cuddled and will elbow her way onto your lap or desk, if you are working from home. She is a chirper, loves her food (wet and dry) and like her daughter, Cashew, loves a full on play session.

Cashew shares the same fabulous personality as her Mama - extremely affectionate, super confident, very outgoing, always first in line at meal times, a massive player and generally an all round winner. She loves cuddles (even upside down ones!), routines, making friends - whether cat, kitten, dog or human - and any toy that moves. Humans however are her very fave things in the world and she will join you wherever you are; so be warned, if you work from home, no keyboard is safe around her!

These two would make a great pair if you are looking to adopt two cats who get on really well together. They are desexed, microchipped, fully vaccinated, defleaed and wormed and are ready for adoption now. If you would like to have a chat about them, contact their Honorary Aunty Helen text 0274 070 659 or [email protected]

**UPDATE: ADOPTED! TOGETHER!!! GO WELL SWEET BOYS ###**

Rarely have we ever seen 2 cats/kittens (they are around 10-11 months old) so bonded and supportive of one another - and so without any vices!

Peanut and Butters (the vet nurses caring for them were having a "nutty" day!) were 2 of 3 kittens plus their Mama, relinquished to a vet clinic. They came from an area with a lot of cats in it and the local vigilantes decided to cull (illegally) as many cats as they could. To keep this truly lovely wee family safe, they were uplifted and left in the care of the Clinic staff - who in turn called us.

Peanut is the darker tabby - and he's going to be a big boy; he towers over Butters. He has a heart of gold, is his brother's protector and is first equal (with Cashew) in line for a cuddle and a smooch session with his foster family.

Butters is just a big, soppy hug in a gorgeous tabby coat. Like his brother he just loves a full on play session - and it's touch and go to see who is first at meal times; they just love their food!

They would suit a busy family with lots of time to spend with them - and they would be perfect for children as well as adults who want a lapcat or two. They really are that good.

Both have been desexed, microchipped, vaccinated and defleaed and wormed. If you would like to know more about them, please contact their Honorary Auntie Helen text 0274 070 659 or email us at mailto:[email protected]

These are 2 of ours! And although they are for adoption, until they are, they desperately need a foster home. As Abby says, we are on the lookout for a room for them - somewhere where they can chill out and be loved while they wait for their new family to come and find them.

Please share this far and wide - this is what you CatsnCare supporters do so well 💖

Snowball & Benson, 5 years old, very bonded brothers

These two cool dudes have been surrendered to us because the family dog makes them both very anxious - and their family feel they deserve so much better.

Snowball is the protective big brother who wraps up his smaller sibling in a protective embrace whenever they snooze together - the photo says it all really.

Snowball is super affectionate, outgoing - the meet and greet member of this wee team - and he just loves people.

Benson is a bit more reserved; he waits until Snowball gives him the ok with new people but having said that, once given the all clear, he too is a super snuggler.

They are very bonded and just gorgeous with each other so we are after a home for them where they can continue to be together - and obviously, one without dogs!

Both have been desexed, microchipped, vaccinated and much loved. If you would like to know more about them, please contact their Honorary Auntie Helen text 0274 070 659 or email us at mailto:[email protected]

**FOR ADOPTION**

**UPDATE: Adopted!!!**

Meet Mickey - who sadly, found himself in hot competition with a whole host of tabbies and torties at a recent adoptathon and so was almost completely ignored, which is very sad because he is an absolute gem of a kitten-cat.

Mickey just loves people - small ones, big ones - individually and in crowds! He also loves cats and kittens and dogs and well, any other animal really.

He could easily become a family's "meet and greet" member as he thrives on being up close and personal and will climb up from your lap to where he can curl up and drift off to sleep to the beat of your heart - purring all the while.

Mickey is still a kitten though and he is a high octane player who runs like the wind through the house, leaping from point to point and generally having a blast. Until last weekend, he had a kitten buddy whom he shared everything with - including these madcap play sessions. They ate together, slept together and explored together, so Mickey would be great with another cat or his very own dog.

In short, he is a dreamboat of a teenager who deserves so much better than he has had thus far. He did come to us with a minor dental issue, but we have sorted that now. He is desexed, microchipped, vaccinated, defleaed and wormed and his personal physician (thank you, Dr Meagan) has given him the thumbs up to be adopted.

If you would like to meet this gorgeous bloke or have a chat about him, please contact his adoring Honorary Aunty Helen text 0274 070 659 or email us at [email protected] Be warned however, that she is hopelessly biased about him!!!

They are 2 of ours!! Please help us find their perfect family by sharing this far and wide 💕

FOR ADOPTION: Introducing Benson and Snowball! We need to find these darling boys a wonderful new home as their former family have had to make the heartbreaking decision that a new situation is the best option for their welfare.
These boys are well loved, which you can tell with their gorgeous personalities. Snowball is an all over you for cuddles type of chap, while Benson is a bit more shy but just as sweet when he gets to know you. They're both around 5 years old and must be adopted together as they are very bonded.
Best suited to a dog free home.
Please get in touch if you have room in your heart for these sweethearts. Approved home only.
