**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 :-)

**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]

**FOR ADOPTION**

**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 💖

**FOR ADOPTION**

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.

**UPDATE: STILL looking for love :-( Won't someone give this very, very special boy the chance to prove how fabulous he is? He soooo needs and wants his very own person/people - and he has enough love in him to join even the largest of families**

**FOR ADOPTION**

Adopting Franklin would be like having a miniature version of a furry, extroverted, affection and attention grabbing, rambunctious elephant join your family!

He's a complete clown - hurtles around like a lunatic, barely missing doorways and colliding with furniture on a regular basis, only slowing down to subside gracefully full length beside his carers - where he will remain snoozing for as long as he is allowed.

Franklin loves people, other cats, naps, wet food (when he does his Mr BobbleHead impersonation), being brushed (especially his tummy), having cuddles - lots and lots of cuddles, Greenies Dental Treats and generally being part of every. single. activity!

Interestingly he also loves having his eyes wiped and he needs this done daily because chronic cat flu when he was a kitten has left him with permanently blocked tear ducts. Sadly this need for extra care has put many potential adopters off and that really is tragic, because as his rescuer and fosterer agree, Frankilin is in the running to be the cuddliest cat in the world.

We have also given his teeth a scale and polish - and he may need another one sometime in the future, although with vigilant care, he may not. This too is probably linked to that virus he suffered from when he was a kitten.

If you would like to meet this very special young dude or have a chat about him - contact his Aunty Helen - text 0274 070 659 or email [email protected]

** UPDATE: Biscuit has been adopted!! 🤗**

This wee cutie is 8 months old and she turned up on a guy's property when she was only 5 months old. Turns out she made a bad decision because he promptly brought her in to a vet clinic to be put to sleep. He didn't want her and didn't care what happened to her - very sad.

Fortunately some compassionate vet nurses threw their collective safety net under her and long story short, this super affectionate kitten is now in their foster care.

Biscuit is described by her current foster Mum as:

very chatty
always happy to see her (rolls over onto her back in ecstasy)
really enjoys playing with her toys so she would be great for a young family
gets on well with other cats even though she loves being the centre of attention
has really petite features so she will likely only be a very small cat
is super confident and an all round complete love.
She's ready for adoption now that she's been desexed, microchipped, vaccinated, defleaed and wormed, and so we are on the hunt for that special person or family who deserve such a gorgeous little lady.

If you would like to meet her - or have a chat about her, please contact her Honorary Aunty Helen on 0274 070 659 or you can email us on mailto:[email protected]

**FOR FOSTER**

Spike is a complete gentleman and he needs a longterm foster home where he will be loved, conversed with, medicated, cuddled and generally adored as the only cat. We will take care of all his costs - food, medication, litter - the lot.

He's 13 years old and was superseded by 2 kittens. By the time he was brought into the vet clinic, he was - as the usually very undramatic Clinic Manager said "in a really bad way and very close to fading away". The fact that they insisted on saving his life speaks volumes about just how fabulous this gentle charmer is.

If Spike was a bloke, he'd be at least 6'7" tall - he's one of the longest, lankiest cats we've ever met - and he's a complete smooch. He needs a companion who is happy for him to sit on their lap - or at least close by - who will let him sleep on their bed, who can hold their own in a lengthy conversation, who would love receiving his gentle affection and who is happy to put gel in his ear every night (for his hyperthyroidism). He is easy to medicate so this isn't a difficult ask.

If you are that person - or you know of someone who would love to have a Spike in their life - please contact his Aunty Helen on 0274 070 659 or you can email us on [email protected]
