Shaka

Rescue cat Shaka from A Purrfect Friend, Preston, Lancashire, needs a homeHello, my name is Shaka. I was living as a long term stray and waiting for a spot to open up, so I could look for a home. Unfortunately, I was injured and needed treatment on my leg, the RSPCA treated me and neutered me too before returning me to the site where I lived until a space was ready for me. I am here now and, have been waiting for a good few months; the rescue have found that I am a really nice lad, I know I look a bit startled in the photo but I am a happy lad. I am 4 years old now and would love to find a home where I can have the opportunity to go outside, once fully settled. I have had time to think and feel that I could live with children because I do love people, but would prefer to be the only pet in my home. If you are looking for a handsome lad to fill your life with love, please get in touch.

Happy & Grumpy

Rescue cats Happy and Grumpy from Cats Guidance, Wigan, Lancashire, need a homeHello, my name is Happy. I am a bit of a special cat, you see had I not been found by the rescue I probably wouldn't be here today; I was collapsed and had a cleft palate making feeding tricky, I was nurse fed until I reached my goal weight and could have surgery to repair it, which was a success. I also have a little issue with my front leg, I can't fully extend it so have a bit of a limp, but it doesn't stop me as I am a clever bean and have worked out ways and means to get around it. I am here with my BFF Grumpy. We both came from a feral mum and while we have been regularly handled, we still have some feral tendencies. Grumpy will sometimes accept strokes and purr happily, but sometimes she will be thoroughly disgusted by the idea. We are looking for either a home where we can accepted for who we are now, or maybe an outdoor home with a few home comforts like a safe place to lay our heads and regular meals and the option to be as close or distant as we choose. We are both neutered and around a year old now. If you could be our guardian angel, please get in touch.

Fluffy

Rescue cat Fluffy, at Carla Lane Animals In Need, Liverpool, needs a new homeHello, my name is Fluffy. I'm a beautiful ten year old lady with a short-haired black coat, and I'm looking for a super-special, loving permanent home. I came into rescue because my previous owner had health issues, and although I had shared my home with another cat I think it would be terrific to be the only furry companion in my new household, so that I can enjoy all the attention and affection I need. I'm a friendly, active and lively girl who will thrive in a caring home, and once I've settled in I'd like access to a safe garden. I have a suspected neurological issue which affects my back legs and sometimes causes me to miss my litter tray, so I'm looking for a human friend who will not be put off by the occasional accident but will love me for the delightful and affectionate character I am. I have been spayed. Do you think that I may be the wonderful feline friend you're looking for?

Maisie

Rescue Cat Maisie from Lancashire Paws Cat Rescue, Lancashire, needs a homeHello, my name's Maisie. I didn't have the best start in life, and can still be cautious at times, but I'm absolutely bursting with love and affection. I am a really gentle soul who wants to be loved and cuddled - I will often just throw myself down in front of you and wait to be stroked whilst rolling round, hoping for tummy tickles too! I do still sometimes just run off, even when apparently relaxed, but I've never shown aggression, including when your hand is on my tummy. I do have a sense of fun and enjoy darting around, but I also like quiet, relaxing moments. I have been spayed, fully vaccinated and have had dental work done too in recent times. I'm 6 years old and looking for a home without dogs. It might take me a while to settle into my now home, but once I do, I will be a delightful girl.

Rhys

Rescue cat Rhys from Blackpool Nine Lives Cat Rescue, Blackpool, Lancashire, needs a homeHello, my name is Rhys and I am wondering if you could offer me a loving permanent foster home? Why, you ask, well I have calicivirus, it is a chronic illness and I have monthly check ups with the vet. To help me find the loving home I deserve, the rescue will pay for all my medical treatment, at their vet practice, and my food, because I am on a special diet for IBD/Lymphoma. I am also FIV+ after my time on the streets as an unneutered lad, fighting for territory, food and ladies. I am neutered now and would love someone to love me and give me all the attention I crave, at the rescue I am in the quarantine section and don't have as much company as I would like. If you think that you could make all my wishes come true, love me and find room in your home for me, I would be over the moon. I am hoping to find a home with no other pets.
To find out about FIV: Visit Cat Chat’s FIV information page and for more information about Calicivirus you can visit the Cat Chat advice page.

Flora & Meadow

Rescue Cats Flora & Meadow, Cats Guidance,  Wigan needs a homeHello, we're 2 sisters, both black, short haired, neutered and only 10 months old. Unfortunately we've not had the best starts to our lives and it's left us very nervous and frightened. I'm Flora (the one with the yellow collar) and I will tolerate a stroke and a tickle behind the ear. My sister Meadow will still spit and hiss but she will come up occasionally, especially if there's chicken on offer! On those occasions she has head bumped a hand and has even purred! We're only just venturing out of our room at our foster mum's place and only when things are quiet and there are no other cats around. We're a work in progress and hope that we can find a quiet home where we'll be loved unconditionally and with some patient humans (and some chicken!), we're sure we can grow in confidence and learn to love. So, we'd like a home with a safe garden, no children and no dogs. We're not sure as yet about living with other cats. If you think you might be our forever people, please get in touch?

Robbie

Rescue Cat Robbie, Lancashire Paws Cat Rescue,  Bury + Bolton needs a homeOh hello there, I'm Robbie, a very handsome, short haired, tabby and white chap of about 7 years. I'd lost my faith in humans living a hard life on the streets and I possibly had owners but I can't remember them. I was very sad and defensive and full of fear for any human. After being in rescue for a while though and being treated gently and patiently, fed regularly and with love, I've changed my mind and decided that I really rather like humans and being taken care of and I wouldn't mind finding one or two of my own to love me and give me a home! I'm a lovely chap and treat my carer to cuddles and encourage her on with feeding me by standing on my hind legs - she does love it when I do that! I'm a gentle, sweet natured boy and I've been neutered, vaccinated, micro chipped and treated for worms and fleas. I'm looking for a home with loving, patient owners who allow me to grow even more in confidence and show what a truly wonderful boy I am. I'm not sure about living with children or other cats but i know I don't want to live with a dog. Could you be my lovely new people? If you think you are, please get in touch?

Belle

Rescue cat Belle from Cats Guidance, Wigan, Lancashire, needs a homeGood day to you all; I am the beautiful Belle. I am 15 years old and am a very agile and independent lady. I am looking for a companion to tend to my every whim, I am a vocal lass who will tell you exactly what I want, especially food and treats, but also a good fuss and will offer plenty of headbumps and kisses in return. I would like a home where I am the only pet and with no young children. I am neutered and ready to go to my forever home; could you be the one to offer me my happy ever after?

Pickles

Rescue cat Pickles from Carla Lane Animals In Need, Liverpool, Lancashire, Merseyside, Wirral, needs a homeGood day; I am the very handsome Pickles, I am a wonderful 10 year old, neutered, lad who had spent time as a stray, arriving at the rescue battered, bruised and bleeding. I was found by someone who knew the rescue and she offered to nurse me back to health. I was given enough TLC to make a recovery and be ready to find my forever people. I am friendly and affectionate, and will even sit on your knee, but if I get over excited or upset I can be a bit nippy, you will need to be aware of this and learn when I need space. I would settle best in a home where I can be the only pet and with no children; I would definitely like the chance to have a little explore if the mood takes me though. I have had some urinary issues in the past, inflammation and cystitis and I take supplements to help manage that; I will need you to keep an on my litter tray to make sure everything is working as it should be. If you are an experienced owner and want to give me the home I deserve, please make contact.

Gabby

Rescue cat Gabby from Cats Guidance Rescue, Wigan, Bolton, Lancashire, needs a homeHi, my name is Gabby, I am around 18 months old now, neutered, and arrived at the rescue with my sister Monica. We were born outside and had to scavenge for food. We were both terrified at first and while I have made a little progress I am still very timid around people. I am looking for a special person who will be incredibly patient with me and who can accept that I may never be a cat who enjoys being fussed. While food is a great motivator for me and may occasional allow me to be touched; I may need to be left to do my own thing. I would like a home where I have the chance to safely go outside at some point and with other cats to show me the ropes and help me build my confidence. I have a think and a home without children or dogs would be best. If you have plenty of patience and time then please consider offering me a home; I am told that getting a timid cat to trust you is very, very rewarding, so why don't we give it a go?

Marie, Tolouse & Berlioz

Rescue cats Marie, Tolouse and Berlioz from Blackpool Nine Lives Cat Rescue, Blackpool, Lancashire, need a homeWe've been waiting over a year... Please pick us! Hello there, we are Marie, Tolouse & Berlioz, year old siblings who have all paws crossed that someone out there will be our guardian angel and offer us a home together, because we really are best friends as well as family. Marie is lovely and quiet, she likes a chin scritch, Tolouse and I are real foodies and will remind you that we are hungry pre dinner, post dinner, if you have food, if a packet rustles three rooms away. I am the most confident of us and will come to you for attention. We are all neutered and would prefer not to live with young children. We do understand that a home for 3 might be a big ask, so if it was the only way to find a home we could be separated. If you could be the one to make our dreams come true, please get in touch and if not please tell everyone about us.

Bonnie & Millie

Rescue Cats Bonnie & Millie, Lancashire Paws Cat Rescue, Bury / Bolton  needs a homeWe've been waiting over a year... Please pick us! Hello. I'm Bonnie the little black cat on the left and I'm here with my sister Millie, she's the black and white cat on the right. We were found with our sister, a couple of years ago as strays, very skinny and very wary of humans. Our sister was a bit bolder than us and is looking for a home on her own but Millie gets a bit of comfort from being with me so we'd like to be homed together please. It's taken a long time and we've been allowed to take our time but we have gone from being feral and not letting anyone near us to enjoying interacting and getting a cuddle. We'll still need time, I'm the most confident but Millie has come on well and with patient, loving owners, in a home of our own, we'll both grow in confidence and may even become lap cats in time. We're 4 years old and have been neutered. Do you think you could find it in your heart to give us the chance of a loving home together? If you think you can, please get in touch?

Chase, Hazel & Nibbler

Rescue cats Chase, Hazel & Nibbler, at Furry Tails Feline Welfare, Blackpool, need a new homeWe've been waiting over 3 years... Please pick us! Hello, I’m Hazel, the gorgeous short-haired black feline in the photo (or at least one of them!), and I’m mum, and best buddy, to brothers Chase and Nibbler who I met here in rescue. We’ve become known as the three musketeers, and as such we’re looking for a fabulous permanent home in which we can stay together. We’re all young neutered cats, and we all have the potential to become loving, contented furry companions in a calm and peaceful home - ideally one with no other pets or small children. At the moment we’re a very nervous trio, although we tend to forget our fears and show our true friendly natures at mealtimes, which shows that given lots of patience and understanding - and plenty of treats! - in our new home we’ll be able to gradually relax and gain confidence. If you could offer us the time and the love that we need to help us overcome our fears, you’ll be rewarded three times over. Why not get in touch?

Rosie

Rescue cat Rosie from Blackpool Nine Lives Cat Rescue, Blackpool, Lancashire, needs a homeI've been waiting over 3 years... Please pick me! Hello there, my name is Rosie. I was 5 years old in June and have been waiting for my forever person for over 3 years already, so I am giving this whole internet thingy a chance to help me. I am an active girl with lots and lots of energy, who loves attention and stimulation; I love to play with my toys and they help me from becoming over stimulated when I am being stroked. I am looking for a home with an enclosed garden or lots of space well away from roads, as I have no road sense. Alternatively a small holding or livery yard, where I can roam safely but have the chance to be inside if I choose and will always have a safe place to lay my head. When I am inside I love to have a tall cat tree to climb and lay in and plenty of toys to play with.  I would also prefer to be the only pet and no children, so that I can have all the attention I crave. I am neutered and ready to find my new best friend and companion, who will understand, work with me and be calm & patient when I get excited. I just have my paws crossed that someone will fall in love with me; can I ask a favour, if you care not the one for me, could you share my story so that I don't have to wait too much longer?
