Having a feline companion will help him continue to thrive and feel secure in his new home. Both of his brothers have been adopted and we desperately want him to find. his humans.

Not one application recently for poor Skeeta 😢

Looking for a lap cat? 🩷

We have lowered Skeeta's adoption fee to $50 to help her find a home. No senior deserves to be homeless. Please share, like and comment to also help her.

At 10 years old, Skeeta is a very sweet, affectionate, and deeply deserving little lady who has been through far more than any cat ever should. Despite everything life has thrown at her, she is forgiving and ready to find someone to call her own.

Skeeta would be happiest as the only pet in the home, as she does not enjoy the company of other cats or dogs. She is also best suited to a calm home with no children under 12, where she can fully relax and enjoy a peaceful environment. She loves having her own space, feeling safe, and being adored on her terms.

Skeeta is nervous to start off with and is a cat who has boundaries and needs someone who can respect that. When overstimulated or given too much attention Miss Skeeta can give a real bitch slap! She just needs someone who will respect her space, not try to pick her up or touch her tummy.

We are looking for someone truly special for Skeeta someone patient, committed, and understanding who can offer her the quiet, loving forever home she deserves. In return, Skeeta will reward you with companionship, sweetness, and the privilege of loving a cat who has waited far too long for her happy ending.

Please share, like and comment. Engaging with socials really does help get their faces out there and increase their chances of being adopted.

She is desexed, up to date with vaccinations, flea/worm treated, microchipped, FIV/FeLV NEGATIVE and kitty litter trained.

Happily ever after to these two adorable souls! ❤️

A huge thank you to everyone who donates, fosters and adopts! It’s only because of you we can save so many lives.

Originally Butters and Mango, now Paddy and Pippin are living their best lives with their wonderful mum Nicolee who chose to adopt.

These two were saved from terrible neglect, were caked in fleas and it truly was gut wrenching.

Not only do they now have a beautiful home, they will have a happy long life with each other by their side.

Please Adopt Me! ❤️

Toffee is a very sweet, affectionate, loving and beautiful cat! He is a total vibe who is sure to steal your heart.

We have lowered his adoption fee to $50 to help him stand out and get a lovely home.

Toffee will take a week or two to settle into a new home with new people. He just takes some time to hide until he understands that he is safe. Once he warms up, he truly has a 10/10 personality and is such a loving cat. We just need someone who understands that the strongest bonds can take time.

Ginger cats are truly the best, and if you have not had the pleasure of sharing your life with one, now is your chance!

Toffee is such a strikingly handsome cat. His fur is a rich, deep orange, and he has the biggest "love me" eyes. We adore him and know you will too.

He is highly cat social and would suit a home with another young, playful cat to wrestle with and play paw soccer with. He is a curious soul who is a friendly baby who deserves so much love.

He is desexed, up to date with vaccinations, flea/worm treated, microchipped and kitty litter trained. If you are interested in adopting this cutie please apply by clicking on the application form link below:

Please Adopt Me! 💕

10/10 personality with people and cats! She is perfect and whoever adopts her will be one very lucky family.

If you are wanting a sweet, affectionate and loving little snuggle puss then Praline is for you! We adore her and know you will too. Cats with temperaments like hers really do not come around too often.

Sweet as her name, Praline is a gorgeous tortoiseshell girl with a striking black coat with beautiful flecks of ginger and an adorable white chest. We think she is gorgeous, but many people often do not adopt cats like her due to their uniqueness.

Praline has such an affectionate soul! She is a beautiful companion cat who loves being around people. She will sit on your lap as you work from home, snuggle on the couch and follow you. She's the kind of cat who enjoys attention and cuddles.
If you're searching for a loyal companion with both beauty and a heart full of love, Praline is ready to find her forever home.

She loves other cats and would suit a home with another cat social friend to snuggle with, wrestle with and demand treats from you with. She hasn't been tested with dogs so we are unsure how she would be.

Praline is desexed, up to date with vaccinations, flea/worm treated, microchipped, FIV/FeLV NEGATIVE and kitty litter trained.

🩵 Please Adopt Pappa Joe 🩵

We have lowered his adoption fee to $50 to help him find a home! So far we are not having much luck for this misunderstood boy.

Some cats don't run up to strangers asking for cuddles. Some cats need time and wait, hoping someone will see past their fear and that's Joe.

He is a totally friendly little cat who will want to sleep with you, snuggle on the couch, follow you and give head boops. Sadly, it just takes him time to get to this level of trust.

Joe had a difficult start to life and we don't think people have always been kind to him. Because of this, he is nervous when first meeting new people. Once he feels safe he is so sweet and affectionate.

He is sweet, friendly, and so deserving of someone who will let him settle in at his own pace. We just need someone who can look past the initial hisses and give him the time he needs to feel safe and show love.

Joe would make a wonderful companion and can happily be adopted as an only cat, where he can soak up all the love and attention. He would also the fine with a calm, cat-social friend.

He is looking for a peaceful home without dogs or young children, just a patient, gentle person who understands that trust is earned, not rushed.

If you're the kind of person who believes the best friendships take time to grow, Pappa Joe is waiting for you. Watching a shy cat learn to trust, relax, and finally feel safe is one of the most rewarding experiences you can have.

Pappa Joe is desexed, up to start with vaccinations, flea/worm treated, microchipped and kitty litter trained. If you are interested in adopting him please apply by clicking on the application form below:

Charlie is the definition of a love bug. He adores people and will happily greet you with instant head boops, purrs, and endless affection.

If you're looking for a true companion, Charlie is your guy. He's a total velcro cat who loves being close to his humans, whether that's curled up on the couch, following you from room to room, or soaking up all the pats and cuddles you can give. His sweet, gentle nature makes him impossible not to fall in love with.

Charlie would be well suited to a home with respectful children who understand how to interact gently with cats. He hasn't been tested with other cats or dogs, so any introductions would need to be slow, gradual, and managed carefully to give everyone the best chance of success.

This gorgeous boy has so much love to give and is dreaming of a family who will adore him as much as he'll adore them. If you're looking for an affectionate best friend who will brighten every day with head boops, cuddles, and unconditional love, Charlie is waiting to meet you.Please share, like and comment.
