CAN YOU HELP WITH AN ELDERLY OR DISABLED CAT?  OR A CAT THAT MUST LIVE IN A FLAT?

Sometimes older cats or cats with special needs find themselves at our shelter.  We are always looking for special homes for these cats.  A large majority of these cats would be suitable to live indoors i.e. in a flat. 

If you would consider offering a home please give your details to a member of the cattery staff.  We are compiling a list so that when these cats come in they do not have to stay here for months while they are looking for a home.

Please come in and talk to the cattery staff, if you have been passed for a flat cat.

 

SMALL ANIMALS AVAILABLE FOR RE-HOMING

RABBITS 

This is Sesame a 2-3 year old neutered male.  Came in for re-homing via an inspector as they had too many animals.  This has resulted in him not being too keen to be picked up.  This will improve in time with the right owner.  He is a friendly boy who would benefit from being homed with a spayed female.
