Mr Benjamin

Mr Benjamin is an affectionate, chatty boy who loves human company and is looking for an experienced cat owner who can understand his boundaries.

He absolutely loves a fuss and will happily greet you with a meow, headbutts and plenty of purrs. He can become overstimulated, though, and may give a little nip when he has had enough, so he needs someone confident at recognising the signs and giving him space when needed.

Mr Benjamin is also quite the conversationalist. Whether you are telling him about your day, making dinner or working from home, he will happily respond with his own collection of chirps and meows. Food is another firm favourite, and he is certainly not a fussy eater!

He would be best as the only cat in his new home and can live with cat-savvy children aged 10+. He has not been tested with dogs and will need outdoor access once fully settled.

Mr Benjamin is not particularly fond of being confined in a carrier, so a larger carrier is recommended to allow easier access and help make necessary journeys as comfortable and stress-free as possible for him.

For someone experienced with cats who is looking for an affectionate companion with plenty of personality, Mr Benjamin could be a wonderful addition to the family.

Partially Vaccinated: The first vaccination has been completed. The second will need to be arranged and covered by the new owner.

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.
