Holly

Posted on by Zoe

Our beautiful Holly came into us back in February of 2025 after being found by another rescuer who kindly took her in until we could. Holly had been hanging around a care-home for a long time whilst also bringing up her two gorgeous babies. Thankfully we got her babies too and everyone was safe.

Holly very quickly showed us that she had been owned before with her super loving personality and sweet sweet nature. Nobody ever came forward for her so after time had passed we found it super important to get her home that matched her and we did just that.

Here are her updates so far for you all.

1 month update:

Madison is still doing well, her tummy has settled and she’s very partial to chicken as a treat. She’s really tolerant of Tilly following her round with her nose stuck up her bottom. She even gives her little head bumps. Gracie is coming round slowly, the hissing and stand offs are getting less. Madison just walks away in slow motion. She’s like a little fur missile when she jumps on your knee. She sits with me in her little cardboard TV while I’m working, it’s very tiring for her as you’ll see in the pictures 😂 She loves her tunnel, beds, water fountain and sunbathing, we’re all very happy 😃

3 month update:

Just thought I’d drop you a quick email to say Madison is living her best life, she deserves it😁 She’s the sweetest funniest girl and has turned into a real Chatty Cathy. She loves her toys, especially her little mice, we found a stash of them under our bed. She gives the best cuddles before she curls up in her own bed…. She loves her tortoise 🤣 She loves Tilly, she gives her little head bumps and rubs up against her. She gets on ok with Gracie, they still have their moments, mostly when they’re hangry, but no fights. She’s still on the Royal Canin Gastrointestinal vet food, as she still has a bit of a dodgy tummy. It’s interesting to see the least to feed them both different biscuits without them sneaking each others 🤣 She’s a little piggy and has put on weight nicely. She actually seems to have grown, she’s not the same tiny thing that arrived a few months ago. Thank you so much for matching us, you do an amazing job. We love her very much.

Maddie is absolutely adorable and has made herself right at home. She sleeps wherever she wants, including Tilly’s bed and her cage, she’s the boss.😂 She snuggles up to us on a night when we’re watching TV and loves being brushed. My back has deteriorated and when she hears me in pain in the night, she rushes in and stays with me pressed up against my side. She loves Tilly to bits. She gets on ok with Gracie, I don’t think they’ll ever be BFF’s but there’s no hissing. Gracie has actually started to come downstairs more so I’ll take that as a win. Dominic always laughs at her little moustache and says El Maddie is in the Cartel, he used AI to put a little Mexican hat on her. She’s still on the veterinarian low calorie food as she’s a little piggy. We’ve got them both automatic feeders as she was constantly pestering for food and put them in different rooms. Now she sits and waits patiently for the dinner bell 😁. I heard crunching the other night and the little tinker had snuck into Gracie’s room polishing off her biscuits 🐷. She’s the perfect combination, she loves playing and has her crazy half hours but then loves a brush and a cuddle. If she wakes up in the kitchen and we’ve moved into the sitting room, she cries like a baby. She is so comical. I’ve attached some pics to make you smile. 😃 We love her dearly and are so grateful for you matching us.

Hello my names Casper & this is my sister Nala. We are a brother and sister duo who came into the rescue through no fault of our own, it was just purely a unfortunate change of circumstances. We have been very loved and looked after our whole lives, we were actually the first ever to come to the rescue neutered, vaccinated & microchipped! Mummy Zoe was blown away.

Since coming to the rescue in January we've been checked over and the vets are very happy with all, we are simply just waiting for someone to look past our age and colour and see us for the super lovely, friendly, sweet cats we are.  There isn't a bad bone in our bodies, we love attention and rubs, though I'm a little more shy at first then my sister, however once settled I am just a loving.

We have been here a while now and we really do feel like its our time to spread our wings and fly off into our next chapter of a nice loving happy home. We feel we would settle with existing cats however because of my allergy to meat based foods we would all have to be on fish based food. We would also be ok with calm, quieter dogs, children, there isn't much that would phase us as we are so lovely. We would also be just as happy staying as the pair we are in and being the only animals, as long as we are together we don't care as we a very close.

We just so want to find our happy ever after so please consider taking a chance on us, we promise you wont regret it! If you like the sound of us then please feel free to click the 'adoption' option below in quick links now for your chance to adopt us. Thank you for your time.

  • Available now

Hi my names Diaz and I came to the rescue back in October 2024 after being born by my feral mum outside. Eventually we ended up at a lovely ladies house who helped feed and look after us along with our mum until we were old enough to leave her, the lady was happy to help still care for my mum as she was a very feral/shy cat but she believed whilst we were young enough we'd at least stand a chance of being able live & thrive in proper homes.

When I came to the rescue I was very quick to show my feisty side, I'd hiss & spit & strike. Mummy Zoe along with the volunteers started getting to work right away on me trying to show & prove the world isn't such a scary place whilst making me  better after having been bunged up with flu from growing up outside. I am pleased to say though i'm still a fiery girl, I have indeed mellowed... A LOT. I'm just a fiery red head, I can't help it haha.

I whole-heartedly know in the right home with time, effort, love & compassion I would be able to thrive & continue to grow. I absolutely love other cats & have always been around them so I'd make a great friend & company for your other lovely furrbabies. I'm great with the litter tray & never have accidents, I'm a quite girl who doesn't make any mess or fuss... Really I am super easy to look after and should you give me love & time, in return I will eventually start to trust & love you too. I don't know how I'd feel about dogs that are overly excited and boisterous, I think that would be too much for me, I also don't want to be around any children as I am still a working progress & can be unpredictable when people get into my space & don't respect me. So a more relaxed home with existing cats where I can just be happy & come around in my own time would be wonderful for me.

If you feel you can give me that opportunity & chance I really would appreciate it so very much. I feel once I let down my guard & begin to trust you, you too would feel happy.

Hello everyone, my names Molly and I'm here with my sister Megan. We were born here in the rescue along with my brother, however he was quickly snapped up by a volunteer who ended up falling in-love with him and who can blame them, he was a cutie. However so are we and this is our call out to you in hopes you might fall in-love with us next.

We are the tinkers of the rescue and everyone agrees when its said that whoever gets us will never have a dull moment in their lives because not only are we super fun... We are also super funny. We really enjoy company, we love attention, cuddles and would love someone to sleep on the bed with or cuddle up on the couch with. We get on super well with other cats however we haven't been dog tested but truth be told if there was a cat friendly dog out there we probably would settle as we are fearless... We even follow and try and play with the hoover.

We know a lot of people find black and white cats boring but all we can do is promise you we aren't... We'd also be great with kids. We are so well behaved and are fully litter trained, we just want a place to call our own now but to stay indoors where we are safe.

Teddy

Posted on by Zoe

Our beautiful lad Teddy came into us back in December 2024 after turning up as a kitten at a nice ladies house with his mum & siblings. 

Teddy was a very shy, nervous and reserved cat but when a lady came to visit him in rescue his gorgeous looks and shy personality made her fall in love with him almost instantly & with that, before we knew it, Teddy was being reserved and preparations were put in place for him to go to his new furrever home once he was ready and here are his updates for you all.

1 month later:

Well officially one month of having teddy, what can i say im so happy at how close they both have become, they groom each other, they snuggle up together, they now share food bowls, almost mastered for the sit command with teddy for a treat, he now allows me to brush him out, hes still not sure about sitting on my knee or close by me but come bed time hes snuggled up beside me while cairo lies on the pillow, hes come on leaps and bounds 🧸
- Michelle

3 month update:

What can i say i feel like hes always been here, hes mastered sitting for a treat without a prompt now hes such a clever boy, he has now started to wake up for his breakfast and does my poor arm not know about it, hes now edging his way closer to me while i sit on the sofa on an evening sometimes he will snuggle up next to me on the bed at bedtime. He now also enjoys a brush out but only on his terms.I cant imagine my house without him now him and cairo have snuggles, groom each other and play together.
Lovely Teddys 6 month update:

He now comes downstairs when i have visitors to say hi and they all comment on how beautiful his colour is and his lottle chirp rather than a meow xx

Brian

Posted on by Zoe

Brian came into us just before Christmas of 2024 after he was found straying in a local Aldi wearhouse. The workers really liked him and decided to look out for him, feed him & make sure he was ok, however Brian's confidence soon start to grow &  before they knew it he was going under delivery trucks whilst they were dropping off the delivery which made them quickly worry for him & his safety so they decided to capture him and take him to the vets.

Once Brian arrived at the vets he was scanned and no chip was found, I was then called by the vets to see if we had room, which we did and Brian was brough into our care. Brian very quickly showed us how lovely he was and came in at the most perfect time. 

A lady who lived locally had unfortunetly lost her cat, this cat was very well known round the village and it shocked many people, myself included... The women was crushed and missed him dearly, yet when I looked at Brain it was like looking at Casper. She decided she did want another cat as the hole Casper had left in her heart hurt so much, thats when I decided to take a risk and introduce Brian to her and she instantly fell inlove with him. So just over a month later Brian was going to his new home. 
Here is his updates for you all.

1 month update:

Hi Zoe, update on Guss, he is a superstar, he has settled in so well, it is like he has been here for ever. He is he most chilled out cat, not bothered about the dogs and spends his days exploring the garden and sleeping on our bed with Summer our other cat, he loves a cuddle and follows us round the house. He has fitted into our family perfectly.

6 months later:

Our beautiful Guss, he has made him self at home, loves being outside but also loves bossing his dog brothers, I have never met a cat who is as loud and talks so much. We love him so much. Thank you Zoe, you have filled a hole in our hearts . Xxx

Amy

Posted on by Zoe

Our gorgeous girl Amy came to us back in October of 2024 along with one of her siblings. Amy and her 4 siblings turned up at a ladies house one day in July when we had actually turn up to collect 2 other sets of siblings that had also taken residency at this ladies house. All 3 mothers in total had quite clearly been caugh by the same gigantic male Mainecoon cat we knew was hanging around however due to space at the rescue and the fact we knew this lady would look after them until we could get the rest in it was decided to keep the kittens and mum cat there.

We then went back few months later to collect them and only managed to get both her and her other sibling who we then named Diaz. In this time they had suffered with some flu however the kind lady helping us also helped us by paying to have them sorted. Amy was a nervous girl, very scared however she showed so much potential which we were glad about. She came along well however was fond of fast movements.

Before we knew it there was interest and Amy went off to her new furrever home to live happily ever in February 2025 and what a life she's got. 

Here is her updates for you all.

1 month update:

She is getting a lot braver, especially when food or treats are involved. We can now stroke her (onu her terms only) and she loves all the toys. From chasing balls around the house, running up and down the stairs and nearly cuddling up to Snickers. I have noticed a change in Snickers and he is a lot happier with a friend. I will try to get some photos, but she seems to sense when I get the phone out she runs and hides 🤣 Abbey (Amy) has had a bit of play and then my daughter was brushing her. Abbey loved it and she was even picked up just for a moment ❤️.
- Lynn

3 month update:

Omg how time has flown. She loves to play with balls and zoomies around the house with our other cat Snickers. Talks all the time to my daughter. She loves her food. This is a quick snap of her resting, which does not happen often. She is an absolute joy ❤️

Charlie

Posted on by Zoe

Lovely Charlie came to us in December 2024 after it was decided by the family they couldn't deal with her anymore as the 'dog had become allergic to her'. Though we didn't fully believe this, Charlie was so young we felt bringing her in was best as we did believe she would get snapped up.

Right from the get-go Charlies sweet, loving, affection personality came through and was just the cutest girl. All she did was purr and want cuddles + affection, there wasn't a bad bone in her body.

As we suspected Charlie was very quickly snapped up a just over a month later Charlie was being taken to her new home where she has settled in amazingly.
Here is her updates for you all.

1 month:

She’s definitely settled in. I just went to find her for an update and she’s come downstairs of her own accord! She’s still a bit wary of the dog but we’re just letting her deal with him at her own pace xx
- Rebecca

3 Months later:

Charlie is an absolute sweetheart and a total daredevil. She climbs anything, including loft ladders and door frames, explores everywhere, and loves hunting feet moving under duvets. She’s settled in beautifully with the other cats and our dog and joins in with everything. She has started exploring outside but doesn’t really go further than the garden. She isn’t really sure what to make of the chickens and is happier now that we have a chicken lockdown! When she wants cuddles she knows how to get the them and is just the sweetest, even climbing under the bed covers to get a cosy spot. Really, she’s just gorgeous, and we’re so pleased she’s here with us. 😍

Bill & Ben

Posted on by Zoe

Bill & Ben were brought into rescue back in July 2024 at only 2 weeks old along with their mum, auntie & another cat from the house hold. Bill & Ben weren't doing the best health wise & started to decline rapidly. Their eyes were sealed shut and once we managed to soak them and open them a lot of puss started coming out. They were struggling to put on weight and struggling to poo. Its was heartbreaking, so alongside feeding off their mum, we stepped in to also help hand rear them.

It was long time of uncertainty,  however we are so very thankful to say they made an amazing comeback and survived with lots of eyedrops & antibiotics. All we needed now was to find them the perfect home. Bill & Bens personality showed in everything they did, double trouble is definitely the way we would describe them, with the biggest hearts of gold. Bill and Ben were very well known at a local cafe near the vets, as when hand rearing them, they had to come everywhere with me, eventually when old enough the owner of the cafe would make them scrambled eggs to enjoy and help them get stronger, it was lovely, they really did spread joy wherever they went.

It took a couple months until we ended up finding the perfect home for the boys and I can honestly say for them it was worth the wait & I couldn't be happier, these quirky boys went to a quirky home and they now live happily ever after.

Charlie

Posted on by Zoe

Our super handsome half Mainecoon kitty Charlie came to us along with 6 of his siblings & half siblings back in July 2024. Though Charlie & his siblings were born in a home, a couple of days later they were removed out of the home by the 2 mother cats due to them actual being feral cats who were just being looked after by a lady who was trying to gain their trust. A few weeks passed and eventually the mother cats came back along with each of their babies where the lady then continued to look after & care them.

In the meantime she then contacted us to see if we could step in to help take some once they were old enough to leave mum, within this conversation it was mentioned how a ginger Mainecoon had been hanging around them all and it was clear to them he was an intact male, when we found out that most the kittens were then ginger it made sense very quickly who the dad was. Especially when we got our first photo of Charlie sent to us! There was definitely no denying it.

Once Charlie and his siblings came into the rescue it was clear these poor babies were scared and reserved, though they had knowledge of humans thanks to that lady, they still for the first 4 most important weeks of their lives, grew up ferally leaving them lacking certain skills or trust in humans. However with time, patience & looks of love they all started to come around, Charlie himself making the quickest and best progress. When I came time to finding up a home, he was snapped up immediately... Is it any wonder? 

Here are his updates for you all.

1 Month:

Odin has settled so well and is so loving. He loves to play with our Charlie cat as they rush around the house and chase each other through the cat tunnels we have. They do cuddle up together on an evening and he has begun to sleep on the bed with the rest of the gang on a nightime. He has a new favourite toy of a Catnip hedgehog which he likes to throw around and carry with him. He has loved christmas attacking my christmas tree decorations and batting the baubles down my hallway. He loves to be at the centre of everything happening and has loved meeting all the family and friends over christmas. He is now using the automated toilet and uses the scratchy posts/boxes like a pro. He loves to eat and snuggle on your knee. We absolutely adore him ❤️
- Siobhan

Cheeky Charlies 3 month update:

Odin (formally Charlie) is such a little character. He is such a lovable mischief. He loves to be in the middle of everything happening and loves to sit on your knee and will pester everyone for tummy rubs. We recently welcomed a new baby into the home and he absolutely adores her, he likes to check on her when she cries and loves to join us for cuddles. I'm sure she has a best friend in him already. Odin enjoys trying to trip us up on the stairs, running around the house at night with our other cat and playing with his toys. He is the greediest of cats and always appears at dinner times and you can guarantee he will be in the kitchen if someone walks through. He always makes us laugh causing choas around the house. He is very much loved by the whole family. ❤️
