Meet Clyde, a 7-month-old bundle of audacity, confidence and questionable life choices.
Clyde is not your typical cuddly kitten. He is very clear that hands are suspicious, affection is unnecessary, and any attempt to stroke him may be treated as a personal offence. However, in true Clyde fashion, he is also a complete hypocrite. Every night, he will happily tunnel under the duvet, attach himself to your legs and use you as his own personal hot water bottle.
He does not want fuss, but he absolutely does want your bed.
Clyde is a playful, energetic and mischievous young cat who loves zoomies, parkour and generally causing chaos wherever possible. He will need a home that understands he is still learning to trust people and that affection must be on his terms. With patience, food and plenty of positive encouragement, Clyde may gradually become more accepting of gentle interaction, but his new family must be happy to love him exactly as he is.
His big weakness is food. Treats are definitely the way to his heart, or at least to a brief moment of tolerance.
Clyde is good with other cats and actually needs another friendly, confident cat in his new home. He can also live with dogs, provided introductions are done carefully. He would be best suited to children aged 10+ who can respect his boundaries and give him space when he needs it.
Clyde is now fully vaccinated, which means his new people will not need to spend weeks trying to catch him for vet appointments while he questions every life choice they have ever made.
If you are looking for a funny, feisty, full-of-character young cat who will invade your bed, keep you entertained and occasionally humble you, Clyde could be the one.
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.
Adoption applications are currently paused.
Instead of applying for individual cats you can open a general adoption form here General Interest Form.
