Most mother cats spend a few weeks raising their kittens before encouraging them to become independent. Penny appears to have completely ignored this concept.
After raising her own kittens and even taking on two adopted babies, Penny proved herself to be an exceptional mum. When it came time for her kittens to grow up, we expected her to enjoy some well-earned peace and quiet. Instead, she chose to keep being a mum.
Even now, Penny still washes Elsa, checks where she is, chats to her throughout the day, and gently reminds her when she’s being a little too adventurous.
Penny is everything you could want in an adult cat. She is calm, affectionate, gentle, and takes life in her stride.
Elsa is the reason she has to.
Fearless, energetic, and endlessly curious, Elsa was the ringleader of her kitten gang from day one. If there was trouble to be found, Elsa was usually involved. Whether she was climbing something she shouldn’t, investigating the impossible, or testing household rules, she approached everything with enthusiasm and confidence.
The funny thing is that despite her adventurous nature, one look from Mum is usually enough to bring her back into line.
Together they make the perfect pair.
Penny provides the wisdom, affection, and reassurance. Elsa provides the entertainment, laughter, and occasional chaos. Their relationship is incredibly special, and after watching them together, we simply couldn’t imagine separating them.
They are looking for a home that appreciates their unique bond and will welcome both of them as part of the family.
Penny and Elsa offer:
• One calm, loving, affectionate adult cat
• One playful kitten with endless enthusiasm
• A wonderfully close mother-daughter relationship
• Double the companionship and double the entertainment
Penny may insist that Elsa still needs looking after, and Elsa seems perfectly happy with that arrangement.
Penny and Elsa must be adopted together.
We’re a foster-based charity, so each cat lives in a home environment before adoption. This helps us see how they cope with things like children, other cats, and dogs.
Because we don’t always know a cat’s full history (especially if they were a stray), our guidance is based on what we’ve observed in foster care. For example:
If a cat has lived happily with children, we’ll note they’re suitable for family homes.
If a cat is very timid and hasn’t been around children, we may suggest an adult-only home.
The same applies for cats and dogs — suitability depends on their behaviour and what we’ve seen first-hand.
As a foster-based rescue, when one cat is adopted their space is quickly filled by another in need. If a cat is adopted into an unsuitable home and has to return, it unsettles them and creates real challenges with our limited foster spaces.
We also believe that, where possible, cats should have safe access to the outdoors. Unless a cat is specifically listed as indoor-only, outdoor access is a requirement for adoption.
Our priority is always to match each cat with the home where they’ll feel safe, settled, and happy.
This kitten comes with our kitten package, which includes neutering, microchipping and the initial vaccinations.
Instead of applying for individual cats you can open a general adoption form here General Interest Form.
