Everyone loves kittens, as you should, as they are so cute and they grow with you.

But, everyone forgets about the mum who had those kittens? She needs a loving home too and often these are just juveniles themselves.

This lovely lady was taken in so she had a safe place to have her kittens. Very soon those kittens will have a home. Please consider taking in a mum cat.

This girl will come desexed, microchipped and vaccinated. She will be available as soon as her kittens are weaned in the next couple of weeks.

Please consider her and ask family and friends if they are interested. Send as a message or email if you are interested.

❤️. This beautiful girl is Coco.

Coco came to us after her owner passed away suddenly. Coco's life was turned upside down when no member of the family was able to care for her.

One of our wonderful foster carers stepped up to help Coco adjust and we are very happy to say she has now become a "foster fail". Her new owner describes her as perfect!

Exercise and Mental Stimulation: Ensure your pet gets enough physical exercise and mental stimulation to prevent boredom and promote overall well-being.

Training and Socialisation: Train your pet using positive reinforcement techniques and socialize them with other animals and people to develop good behaviour.

Grooming: Regular grooming, including brushing, bathing, and nail trimming, is essential for your pet’s hygiene and comfort.

Safe Environment: Create a safe and comfortable living environment for your pet, free from hazards and with appropriate shelter.

Love and Attention: Spend quality time with your pet, providing love, attention, and companionship to strengthen your bond.
