The following are just some of our cats and kittens as at
Monday, 6 September 2010
We are also advertising a few 'Home to Home' cats.


Our Adoption Process
Paw print Tell us which cat you are interested in or what type of cat you are looking for, we will then arrange for you to visit any suitable cat(s) and help you make a decision.
Paw print Next, we carry out a home visit to ensure that your environment suits the needs of the cat; not every cat will suit your specific situation. At this time we will complete any relevant paperwork and answer any further questions.
Paw print Getting a cat ready for adoption is expensive. All of our cats have been treated to our minimum veterinary standards, meaning that they have been examined by a veterinary surgeon, been vaccinated against flu and enteritis, treated against fleas, roundworm and tapeworm and any sick cats have been blood tested for FIV and FeLV. If the cat has not been neutered before or during its time in our care, provision will be made to ensure owners are able to do this after adoption; our recommended start age for neutering within Cats Protection is four months. We also provide Petplan cover for four weeks free of charge.
Paw print We, therefore, appreciate a donation in return, to ensure we can continue our essential work with the unwanted, lost and stray cats in Cheltenham.

CATS LOOKING FOR NEW HOMES
Winnie Winnie: Only 8 months old - female, black and white short haired.

Story: Winnie was found on a building site in the process of giving birth to 3 kittens - far too young to have had a litter of kittens.

She is such a friendly, playful young cat, and now needs a home where she will be loved and never abandoned again.

We are looking for a home where the following two cats, Ruby and Dani, would be welcomed together, as they are very much a twosome.

Ruby Ruby: Female, short haired tortoiseshell/white - 5 years old.

Story: Ruby is super energetic, and can jump to incredible heights inside her pen. She isn't shy in coming forward to greet everybody and has a very loving nature. She is also very inquisitive and playful - she just loves fun. But she isn't at all noisy.

Ruby

Dani Dani: Female, long haired calico - 5 years old.

Story: A wonderful looking cat, with a very soft coat. A little reserved when she first meets you, but after a few minutes, she warms to you, and then it's VERY load purring. We think Dani is probably a lap cat.

Dani

Smudge
Smudge: 10 years old, female tortoiseshell.

Story: Her owner is having to move to new accommodation that does not allow pets, hence the need to find Smudge a new home.

Smudge is very friendly and quite laid back, and loves to sit on your lap in the evening and have her head rubbed. She is fine with quiet dogs.

Hazel Hazel: Female, tortoiseshell, short haired - less than a year old.

Story: This beautiful looking young cat has recently had a litter of kittens. Mum and kittens were brought into care the day after she had given birth to 6 kittens in a back garden.

Hazel is friendly and a very sweet cat, who will soon be looking for a new home after so brilliantly caring for her young.

Izzie Izzie: Female, tabby, short haired - young.

Story: She is friendly and affectionate, despite being an unwanted stray. Izzie recently gave birth to a litter of kittens. She certainly intended that her kittens would be safe whilst they were newborn because she chose a disused garage full of furniture and made use of a comfy chair.

Izzie would certainly appreciate a loving home.

Prince Prince: An all black male, about 18 months old.

Story: Six months ago some folk took in this hungry stray cat, but unfortunately they are no longer able to care for him. He is a lovely boy who likes company and a bit of comfort. He should make someone a worthwhile companion.

Spatz
Gizmo
Spatz, Gizmo and Tigger: Only 16 weeks old - males, short haired kittens:

Spatz: black and white, born to be a leader, this bundle of mischief leads the way when it comes to having fun with his two brothers.

Gizmo: light silver tabby, not far behind his brother, Spatz when it comes to enjoying life.

Tigger: dark tabby, probably the quietest of the three brothers, but still keen to be involved.

Our photographer got caught up in the fun when they took an interest in his shoe laces. Great picture though! Sorry about the laces.

Luna: Female, 2 years old, neutered, fully vaccinated, microchipped, as well as routine flea and worm treatment.

Story: Unfortunately, a new home is wanted for Luna.

She is a lovely cat with a really friendly nature.She likes nothing more than a mooch around the garden, lying in the sun or across the top of the stairs. She is not a lap cat, more a lie by your side cat. Luna loves the occasional tickle under the chin and a stroke on the belly.

She doesn't mind other cats and dogs, and is fine with older children. She has a very good appetite, liking wet and dry food, and will come and tell you when she is hungry.

Luna is an intelligent cat, with a great personality. If you would like to meet her and find out more, please contact the owner, Elaine: telephone 01684 591103.

Home to Home - Ronnie Ronnie: Male, tabby and white short haired - 10 years old.

Story: Jack and Ronnie have been with their owner since they were kittens, and she is heartbroken in having to find them a new home.

Ronnie is a very happy cat and loves nothing more than spreading out on the bed for a lovely long day in the sunshine! He likes being stroked, and when he wants a cuddle he will jump onto the sofa and let you know. Less of an outdoor cat than Jack, but, as you can see, he does enjoy sunning himself in the garden.
