Updated 22nd November 2008

We update these pages as often as possible with photographs and in-depth descriptions. However, we cannot guarantee that the cats featured have not been adopted by the time you contact us but we can guarantee that we will have many cats who would love a new home.

BEBE

Poor Bebe has been with us for too long. A feisty madam, but her background explains why - she had been kept in a confined space for most of her seven-year life! She doesn't like other cats, so it's hard for her to be in the foster unit with so many. Once in a home of her own she will blossom, but she must be given time and above all space. Little sugar pot really.

KITKAT

Kitkat is busy bringing up her four kittens Rebel, Rolo, Sherbet and Smartie. We don't have photos of Rebel and Rolo yet, as they won't stay still! Kitkat is a pretty grey with bits of apricot, and large yellow eyes. She's only a young cat herself, and will soon be looking for a home of her own.

FELIX

Felix is a friendly cat who appears to have been abandoned.

LOUIE

Louie was very scared and quiet when he arrived but has turned out to be a character with a capital C. He is a proper big bruiser of a cat and is going to need a nice big garden and some good sized indoor space to strut his stuff with no other cats. He is talkative and fussy and will make you laugh with his antics, he will make a wonderful addition but as very occasionally he can be bit grumpy he needs to be homed with no children.

ROBBIE

Robbie is a very handsome chap, he's fully vaccinated, microchipped, and ready for the off. He's looking for a loving owner with a nice big garden to play in.

PATCHES and JERRI

Patches and Jerri are like two peas in a pod, each as playful as the other. Ideal family additions now looking for a new home together.

We have other cats awaiting rehoming for which we do not yet have pictures. Please contact the Catline on 01332-206596 for more information.

Kittens - Updated 22nd November 2008

Please bear in mind that we cannot guarantee that the kittens featured have not been adopted by the time you contact us but we can guarantee we will have many cats who would love a new home.

It is the Branch policy to home very young kittens in pairs in situations where prospective owners work full-time. If this applies to you, please carefully consider the financial implications of homing two kittens.

Also, we do not home kittens 6 months and under to families where there are children aged 5 or younger.

BERTIE

Bertie is an adorable little chap who loves having his tummy tickled. His brothers and sisters have all gone to their new homes, leaving Bertie behind very bewildered and lonely.

FLYNN

Flynn is only about six weeks old. He was found in bushes by someone walking through a park in Derby: he was wet, cold, and suffering with an ulcerated eye. After spending a week at the vets having antibiotics and eye drops, he is now having lots of TLC from our volunteers, and is coming on in leaps and bounds.
