How Cat Adoption Works

Everything you need to know

We always have cats and kittens looking for loving, lifelong homes, and our goal is to match each one with the right person or family. It’s all about finding the perfect fit, both for you and the cat.

If you’re new to cat adoption or just looking for guidance, check out our FAQ page. You’ll find helpful tips on preparing for a new cat, introducing them to other pets, settling them into your home, and more.

Who Can Adopt?

Anyone can apply to adopt from us! We aim to match each cat with the most suitable home based on their personality, needs, and background — as well as your lifestyle and experience.

We hold regular Homing Days (check our Events PageFacebook page for details). If you spot a cat you’re interested in via our adoption page then send an enquiry using the form below the cat,  we’ll arrange a meet-up with one of our foster carers.

What to Expect

Some cats may need:

  • A quieter home (no small children or pets)

  • To be kept indoors only

  • Extra patience and time to build trust

We always put the wellbeing of the cats first, so we may sometimes say no if a match doesn’t feel right — please don’t be discouraged. The right cat for you is out there!

Once matched, we’ll help you prepare to welcome your new feline friend home, discussing any special needs and giving advice to help them settle in smoothly.

The Adoption Process

  1. Find a cat online or at a Homing Day

  2. Arrange a visit with their foster carer

  3. Meet a volunteer to discuss the match

  4. Complete the adoption form

  5. Pay the adoption donation

  6. Take your new cat home!

Adoption Donation

Your donation helps cover essential vet care and supports the rescue.

All cats receive flea and worm treatment, and are microchipped.

Insurance Cover

Your new cat will come with four weeks free PetPlan insurance. If you choose to extend it using our code, we’ll receive a small donation from PetPlan — at no extra cost to you.

Ongoing Support

We’re here for you even after adoption. If you have questions or need help settling your new companion in, we’re just a message away.
