​The Job Description
​Are you looking for a roommate who will chat and chirrup at you, demand you style her hair daily, and judge you for making sudden movements and being loud? Look no further!
​I am a gorgeous 1-year-old feline diva looking for my forever staff. I’ll admit, when we first meet, I might play hard to get. I might even hide behind the sofa and pretend you don’t exist. But once I realise you are the source of food and chin scratches? Boom. My personality will blossom overnight. I am incredibly affectionate, fiercely playful, and I have a lot to say about everything.

​My Perks & Requirements
​The Coat: Look at it. It’s fabulous. It requires daily maintenance, but luckily for you, I actually enjoy being groomed. Consider it our daily bonding ritual where you tell me how beautiful I am.
​The Social Life: I love other cats. Seriously, I need a friend please, so if you have a friendly feline who needs a sidekick, I’m your girl.
​The Dealbreakers: Absolutely no dogs. They are loud, they smell like wet grass, and they completely ruin my vibe. I also require a calm, stable home. If you like to drop pots and pans, scream at sports on TV, or practice your tap dancing, I don't think we'll get along! Loud noises and sudden movements will send me back to the shadow realm (under the bed). This also means I would prefer an adult only or home with teenagers please. Children are too unpredictable for my sensibilities.
​The Great Outdoors: I am currently obsessed with my fosterer’s catio, but I am ready to upgrade to the real deal. I need a safe outdoor space where I can stalk bugs and pretend I’m a fierce jungle predator.

​Apply Within: If you have a quiet home, a high tolerance for feline monologues, a sturdy brush, and zero canines, please apply to be my lifelong assistant.
​

Name: Lawrence
Age: 2 years young
Relationship Status: Single and accepting applications

Hi, I'm Lawrence. I'm a handsome young gentleman looking for a long-term committed relationship with a human who understands that true love takes time.

My previous living arrangement involved other cats and a dog. After careful consideration (and absolutely no drama whatsoever), I've decided that communal living simply isn't for me. These days I'm seeking a quieter lifestyle where I can be the sole furry ruler of the household.

I won't pretend to be one of those cats who arrives and immediately throws themselves into your arms. I'm more of a "slow-burn romance" kind of guy. I may seem shy at first, but give me patience, kindness, and a calm environment, and you'll discover a loyal companion hiding beneath my reserved exterior.

My ideal match enjoys peaceful evenings, understands the importance of personal space, and won't take it personally when I need a little time to assess their character. Once you've earned my trust, you'll have a devoted best friend for life.
Must haves:
✔ Quiet home
✔ No cats
✔ No dogs
✔ Plenty of patience and love

If you're looking for a relationship that's built on trust, understanding, and mutual admiration, swipe right on Lawrence. Good things come to those who wait... and I'm definitely one of the good things.

"No other pets" isn't me being difficult—it's called knowing your boundaries and prioritising

🐾 JACK-DAW, 5⭐ Professional Chaos Coordinator

About Me: Hi, I'm Jack-Daw. Yes, like the bird. My mum is called Raven, so my siblings and I were all given bird-themed names. Very classy. Very sophisticated. Unfortunately, I grew up to be a tiny furry whirlwind with the attention span of a teaspoon.

My brother and sister are due to fly the nest together later this week. I graciously allowed my shy brother to leave with our bossy sister because, frankly, somebody needed to keep him organised. Now I need to find a home.

Looking For: A resident cat or dog who enjoys wrestling, chasing, zooming and generally making questionable life choices. If it has four legs and is willing to play, we'll probably get along.

My Interests Include:
👉 Sprinting towards anything that moves.
👉 Investigating things I definitely shouldn't.
👉 Turning ordinary household objects into toys.
👉 Maximum entertainment.
👉 Being adorable enough to avoid prosecution.

Affection Style: I don't mind being picked up and cuddled... for approximately three and a half seconds. After that, if a dust particle floats past or a leaf dares move outside the window, our cuddle session is officially over and I must investigate immediately.

Children: I've met tiny humans as young as two years old and think they're quite fun. I do ask that they understand I occasionally get carried away during playtime and may accidentally deploy a paw when excitement levels reach critical kitten capacity.

Final Selling Point: If you're looking for a calm, quiet cat who enjoys long naps and peaceful evenings, keep scrolling.
If you're looking for a hilarious, energetic sidekick who will keep you laughing, supervise every household task, and ensure life is never boring again, swipe right.

Yours in chaos,

Jack-Daw 🐦🐾 Future Olympic champion in the 3am Hallway Sprint.

*Applications Currently Paused* 💕 MINNIE, Seeking Full-Time Human Servant 💕

About Me:
Hello, I'm Minnie, and unlike some kittens who believe every waking moment should involve parkour, chaos and questionable decision-making, I have class.

My ideal day consists of finding the nearest lap, settling myself comfortably upon it, and receiving endless strokes while you tell me how beautiful and perfect I am. This is not negotiable.

What I Bring to the Relationship:

- Constant companionship.
- Expert-level supervision of all household tasks.
- Emotional support during absolutely everything.
- A warm furry weight on your lap whenever you sit down.

Don't get me wrong—I still enjoy a good play session. Balls? Excellent. Springs? Outstanding. Laser pen? I've recently discovered this magical red dot and am currently conducting extensive scientific research into where it disappears to.

Living Arrangements:
I've lived with lots of cats, kittens and even a dog. I'm very sociable and get along with everyone.

That said, I'd also be perfectly happy as an only pet. In fact, being your one and only means I'd receive 100% of the attention, so I'd be equally as happy with this arrangement.

Relationship Expectations:

I will follow you from room to room.

I will accompany you to the kitchen.

I will supervise bathroom visits.

I will inspect laundry folding.

I will oversee television viewing.

Some may call this "needy."

I prefer the term highly committed to quality control.

Children:
I'm gentle, placid and sweet-natured, so I should fit in well with respectful younger humans who understand that cats are royalty and should be treated accordingly.

Final Thoughts:
If you're looking for an independent cat who only appears at feeding time, I am probably not your girl.

If you're looking for a tiny shadow with paws who will adore you, follow you, supervise you and love you with her whole heart, then your search may be over.

Tomorrow, these 2 kittens will be posted available for adoption (not from the same litter). Both are suitable for young children, other cats and dogs as both are in foster homes with dogs. Again, as this is a rare occurrence for us to have kittens suitable for young families & dogs,we will prioritise applications from families with younger children and/or dogs as they are often the ones who miss out and ask for your understanding and support. We will have plenty of other kittens who would prefer a household with older children and no dogs in the coming weeks.
Full details will be posted tomorrow (2nd June)and then applications will be open.

Update: These two are available for adoption: https://www.peterboroughcatrescue.org.uk/adopt-a-cat

😻 Lord, 18 Months Old | Siamese Supermodel | Accepting Applications for New Staff

Greetings.
My name is Lord. Yes, that really is my name, and yes, it suits me perfectly. Before we go any further, let's address the elephant in the room: I am ridiculously handsome. If you've already fallen in love based solely on my looks, that's understandable. It happens a lot.

As a Siamese, I come with a built-in commentary system. Some people call it "being vocal." I call it "keeping you informed."

Unlike many young cats who spend their days launching themselves off wardrobes and causing chaos at 3am, I am a sophisticated gentleman. You'll rarely catch me tearing around the house like a furry wrecking ball. I prefer the quieter things in life: naps, cuddles, bird-watching, more naps, and being admired from a respectful distance.

I can be a little shy when we first meet. Don't take it personally. I'm simply conducting a thorough background check. Once approved, you'll discover I'm a sweet, gentle boy who enjoys cuddles and will happily claim your lap as my personal throne.

Accommodation requirements are as follows:
✅️ One comfortable home.
✅️ At least one lap.
✅️ Unlimited admiration.
✅️ A catio would be lovely.

❗️Rural applicants will be considered for normal cat outdoor privileges❗️

⚠️ I do not want to be kept inside only. I admire watching the outside life through the window and want to be a part of it ⚠️

As for other cats, absolutely not. I want humans all to myself thank you.

Children subject:
My previous owner introduced a baby into the household and frankly, I wasn't consulted. Or impressed. Suddenly there was a tiny human getting all the attention, making strange noises and generally interfering with my role as The Baby. It was unacceptable.

Therefore, I am seeking an older child only or no children home where I can resume my rightful position as your only dependent, your favourite family member, and the centre of your world.

In return, I offer:
✔ Stunning good looks
✔ Excellent manners
✔ Professional-level cuddles
✔ A calming presence
✔ Complimentary Siamese commentary throughout the day

My fosterer has presented me with what can only be described as a Michelin-starred tasting menu. Fancy meats, gourmet pâtés, luxurious wet food feasts... honestly, the effort has been embarrassing.....Give me a bowl of decent dry food and I'm perfectly happy. I'm basically the cat equivalent of someone ordering chicken nuggets at a five-star restaurant.

If you're looking for a handsome, gentle companion who thinks he's royalty but is willing to overlook your commoner status, please submit your application.

💘 Sabina, 18 Months Old – Seeking Staff...

Hello. My name is Sabina.

I've had a rather eventful first 18 months. I've survived a turbulent start to life, raised children, and frankly feel I've aged about 47 years in the process. While other young cats are out causing chaos and making questionable life decisions, I'm looking for a quiet retirement package and a comfortable sofa.

I'm a shy girl initially and believe trust should be earned, not given away like free samples at a supermarket. Once I know you're trustworthy, however, I'll reward you with loyalty, affection, and the occasional honour of sitting near you.

Please note: I am an independent woman. I do not require constant entertainment. I do not need a social calendar. I will play when I feel like it, which could be 3pm, 3am, or not at all depending on my schedule. On my terms.

What I'm Looking For:
✔ Quiet home
✔ Calm humans
✔ Reliable snack distribution service
✔ Someone who understands that "personal space" is not a personal insult

Other Cats? Yes.... But only if they're calm and mature. If they describe themselves as "mad zoomies" on their profile, it's not going to work.

Children? I've never lived with them. Older, quieter models may be considered. If they can sit still for more than six seconds and don't feel the need to chase me around dressed as a dinosaur, we'll probably get along.

Dogs? Absolutely not.
No dogs.
Not even one.
I didn't survive motherhood just to come home to a creature that thinks licking its own backside is a personality trait.

Ideal Evening: A comfortable bed, a few snacks, complete silence, and absolutely nobody asking me what I'm doing every five minutes.

If you're looking for a sophisticated lady who has left her chaotic years behind her and is ready to settle down into a life of luxury, apply now.

Applicants will be judged silently from across the room before a decision is made. 🖤

A huge thank you to Matilda!

This incredible young lady set herself a challenge and cycled her little heart out to raise money for Peterborough Cats Rescue.

Throughout her ride she kept saying, "I'm doing it for all the cats!" ❤️

We're absolutely delighted to share that Matilda raised an amazing £415 for the cats in our care. Every penny will help us continue providing food, veterinary treatment, shelter and love to cats who need us most.

We are so proud of what Matilda has achieved and so grateful for her kindness, determination and support.

Thank you, Matilda. You are a true cat champion, and all of us at Peterborough Cats Rescue think you're amazing!
