Meet Buster!!

Buster is our 10-year-old male Staffordshire Bull Terrier.

Don’t be fooled! Buster may be 10 years old but he is young at heart and will still be able to keep up with you! This handsome man is a lovely affectionate boy who enjoys having human interaction.

When he initially came to us, he wasn’t fazed by his new surroundings, however over time he has become more and more unsettled with kennel life and doesn’t enjoy going back to his kennel. He much prefers to be out and about whether that’s running about playing in a field or chilling with our staff members.

Buster is a big foodie and will enjoy any treat you give him. He very much enjoys being the centre of attention and will happily let you give him some fuss, he isn’t bothered about meeting new people as long as they give him some attention.

Since being in our care we haven’t seen Buster massively interact with toys, if you give him some enrichment though he will be sure to enjoy this, especially if it is some yummy peanut butter. Buster is really clever and will respond well to training, he already knows how to sit and do paw.

He isn’t bothered about seeing other dogs from a distance and will just carry on doing his own thing, however he doesn’t appreciate them getting in his face and prefers his own space.

Buster would be suited to a home with dog savvy children aged 6 and over, and for him to be the only animal in the home.

If you think you can give this golden oldie a loving home then please email [email protected] for more information.

🟢WE ARE AVAILABLE🟢

These two cuties are Bonnie (Tortie) and Clyde (Black and White). They are 7 months domestic short haired cats and are now looking for their forever home, together.

What’s more special about this duo is that they are polydactyl, this means that they have extra toes! So instead of the average 18 toes Bonnie has 22 and Clyde has 24! The extra 2 are on his front paws, they may need a closer eye on them as they may need trimming.

When they first came to us, they were very shy and nervous and seeking comfort in hiding. Throughout their time with us they have become much more relaxed and comfortable and no longer hiding. They enjoy most of their time, laying out and snoozing on their outside cat tower. Clyde a little adventurer and enjoys exploring his new surroundings. Whereas Bonnie is a little more reserved, she does like to explore however she can be startled quite easily.

They both love lots of fuss and plenty of chin tickles, they don’t overly like being picked up, however they will allow you to but will try and get down.

As their confidence grows more and more each day, they are getting used to more things. Sometimes they are both unsure and takes them a little while to come around and realise things aren’t as scary. When it comes to brushing, they start off unsure and treat it like they are being stroked. They are learning to play with toys and both like to play with the flirt pole, even if they do need to share. Clyde loves to play with Bonnie, she just tolerates it, proper sibling love.

They are looking for a home where they are the only cats, they could live with a dog that is calm and has lived with cats before. With Bonnie being a little sensitive to noise, we are saying that cat savvy children aged 6+ would be best suitable.

Meet the lovely Shadow, our 9-month-old black domestic short haired cat.

When Shadow first arrived, he was shy and anxious of his surroundings, but since then he has come out his shell, shown his true personality and has become such a pleasure to care for and be around. He is a delightful cat and is completely at ease around people. He has settled into cattery life really well.

Shadow is very calm and easy to approach. He absolutely loves fuss and tickles; he will even roll over in front of you for tummy rubs. He is very much a lap cat and will love to jump on your knee for more play time. He really is an adorable and affectionate cat and being close to humans and play time is his favorite thing! He also likes to play with his fluffy toys and engages in play really well when you join in.

Shadow has met some of our other cats in the cattery and seems to be absolutely fine with them and is quite the curious cat. He would be fine to live with other cats, meanwhile thanks to his calm and friendly nature we think Shadow could live in a home with children aged 5 and up.

🟢I AM AVAILABLE🟢

Luna is our 3 year-old black domestic short hair.

Luna has come into the centre as a nervous girl, but has soon come to terms with fuss and attention. It takes her a while to warm up initially, then she will accept the attention.

Luna likes to spend most of her time in her outside area on her cat tower, when she has visitors she will come out for licki-lix treats and enjoys the company of staff and volunteers!

She has been fussy with her food since arriving at the centre, but is improving daily and has made lots of progress. Luna has learnt to use her cat flap and has been toileting in her litter trays perfectly.

When being brushed, Luna will tolerate but doesn't lean into the brush or have other positive reactions to it- we are working on this being a nice thing!

Luna is okay to be picked up and doesn't try to get away but is still quite shut down, because of this we haven't seen her interact or play with any toys yet.

She is looking for a home with no other pets, and could live with children aged 5+.

🧡I AM RESERVED🧡

Meet Rocky, our cheeky 6 month-old domestic short hair.

Rocky hasn't had a great start in life and came to us from a home where he was being severely mistreated, despite this, he is the most affectionate boy and still trusts and loves human interaction.

He is quite a confident boy and can enjoy his own company by entertaining himself chasing his toys around his pod, but when he sees people in the cattery his attention soon turns! He comes straight up to the glass and waits for some cuddles.

Rocky has been known at the centre for his bold character! Trying to escape his pod the second the door is open, whether this is to climb up staff or go and have a nosy in the corridor, as well as being vocal and loving his cuddles!

Rocky will tolerate being groomed for short periods, but is still a bit confused by the brush and will try to grab and bite it if he has the opportunity!

Rocky is using his litter trays well, he is still getting used to using his cat flap.

Rocky is looking for a home without a dog, but he could live with another cat and children of any age.

MEET CYNTHIA

Cynthia, our sassy, loveable 5-year-old Shih Tzu, is looking for a new home!

Cynthia is a happy, confident little girl who takes everything in her stride. She has been a super star here at the centre, settling in quickly and adapting well to all the new places and the routine. Cynthia loves toys and keeps herself (and the staff!) amused by playing with her teddies.

Cynthia enjoys going out on walks and after some initial pulling due to excitement she walks nicely on the lead. She doesn't seem to be phased by vehicles etc. She is very keen to be friends with everyone she meets and absolutely loves cuddles and kisses. Because of this she can get a little over excited and sometimes jump up to your face - we are working on encouraging her to receive fuss calmly.

Cynthia doesn't know any basic commands yet but she loves food and is very attentive. She seems keen to learn and would benefit from a little training in her new home. She may need reminding of some toilet training at first.

Cynthia's coat was very matted when she was rescued. This has been clipped off by our lovely vets and is growing back nicely. She is currently having a medicated bath twice a week for a skin issue, but she is very well behaved for this (especially if you have a lickimat and peanut butter on hand!) Her new owner will need to carry this on until her skin has been signed off by one of our vets.

We believe that Cynthia could live with dog-savvy children aged 6+ and possibly another small, calm dog, subject to successful introductions.

Potential adopters should be aware that Cynthia has some mild hip dysplasia. This does not affect her at the moment but should be a consideration for the future.

If you think you can give this lovely lady a home please email [email protected] for more information.
