Adopt Me!

 Sometimes you stare into the void and.... the void looks away because it has anxiety and doesn't like eye contact. 

Meet Ali. 

Ali came back into foster through no fault of his own and, after a few months of settling in and getting his hyperthyroidism under control - he's now ready to find his forever home.

Ali is a very quiet guy who likes to be in the same room as you and does actually enjoy your company but the thought of you actually knowing that fills him with embarassment. He occasionally loves a fuss and will love you forever if you scratch his cheeks and chin - but only until he realises you can actually see him loving it, then the embarassment takes over and he has to leave. 

He's basically like a teenager who doesn't want to accept that he likes spending time with his family.

Ali is secretly one of the nicest cats you'll ever meet. He craves a quiet life with no other animals, a small corner or table to hide under and someone who will be patient in building up trust with him. He loves looking out of windows and will happily spend time with you on the couch while you binge your favourite program. He doesn't play apart from occasionally batting his own tail but that doesn't mean he isn't happy, just that he doesn't know how to play.

He's missing an eye due to an old injury when he first came in to us but he doesn't miss it. He does have a sensitive stomach so too many treats or changes in food can upset him but he can eat whiskas and felix happily. He does get hairballs but regular brushing hugely helps with this.

He also has hyperthryoidism but is stable on his liquid medication which he takes well in his food. This means he'll need occasional vet visits for bloods to make sure he's stable but that's usually only every few months. 

Ali would be best suited to a quiet house with no other pets (or at least quiet ones), no children. 

He's around 11 years old and wants nothing more than to find his forever home where he can relax and enjoy the finer things in life.

If you can offer Ali a home, please complete an application form and a member of the team will be in touch.

Grooming Note: Pumpkin arrived with significant matting, so she’s been shaved for her comfort. Her long coat will grow back beautifully, and her current look is only temporary.

Golden Oldie Pumpkin is looking for her forever home. Here’s what her foster mum has to say.

Pumpkin is a very sweet and loving old girl who loves nothing more than a nice warm lap and fusses. Not much is known about her background, as she was found as a stray, but has settled really well into her foster home, where she enjoys plenty of cuddles and attention. 

She is a good eater and is on renal food due to having kidney disease and she is also on lifelong gabapentin for her arthritis in both of her back legs. She can be a bit wobbly on her feet due to the arthritis, but it doesn’t stop her from getting around: she is still able to jump on and off the sofa and beds, which she regularly frequents as favourite spots for a good snooze. Please note that Pumpkin is also deaf, but this doesn’t affect her in her daily life. In fact, she was completely oblivious to all of the fireworks and was happily sleeping through them all, cuddled up warm and cosy inside.

Pumpkin is thought to be around 13, she can live with other calm cats, she will need to be an indoor cat due to her arthritis and hearing loss.

If you can offer Pumpkin a home, please complete an application form and a member of the team will be in touch.

Meet Ruda! Estimated to be at least 13 years old, she came to us after a long time on the streets.

Since moving indoors she shows absolutely no signs of being interested in going out again and prefers to spend her time between a bed in front of the radiator and at her food bowl!

She has early kidney disease which is being managed with a renal diet and her back legs are a little wobbly with arthritis.

Shes a friendly girl with an adorable crackly meow, which you will hear every time its time for food!

 Short king alert!

Aslan came in as a stray with a sore eye from a scratch below it. He ended up with an eye ulcer that needed ongoing treatment that has now cleared up! 

He's the king of mixed signals - loving nothing more than having a fuss and sitting on your lap, that is until he decides he's done with that and gently bites or smacks you to let you know he's done (he doesn't break skin though!). But then instantly rubs his head back on you again for ask for more fuss...

If you're thinking he sounds like the perfect guy for you, make sure you have life insurance because he loves nothing more than running in front of you on stairs and then stopping. Or swiping at your feet as to go to step over him when he stops in front of you at some very inconvenient location. 

Many of Aslan's quirks can be put down to the fact that he is FIV positive (not just because his legs are oddly short for his body size). FIV is a condition which leads to a weakened immune system and isn't treatable but don't let that put you off! Cats with FIV can live long and happy lives, some never showing signs they have it. 

What does that mean? 

Aslan will need to be an indoor only cat to make sure he can't pass on the virus to any other cats. It is transmitted by saliva, most commonly through deep bite wounds or by mating therefore, ideally, Aslan would be rehomed with other FIV cats or as an only cat or with other indoor only cats. 

With Aslan in your family, your home will never be quiet again! Whether it's meowing to let you know he's used the litter tray or just generally chirruping to let you know about his day, this little vocal boy loves nothing more than when you talk back to him

This is Gaius, possibly the most grateful cat you’ll ever meet. Abandoned and living in a garden, he was being cared for by the kind couple next door and had captured their hearts so much they only reluctantly handed him over to FAWR due to them already having their own cats.

When he arrived in foster care, Gaius was very nervous. The only thing he was sure of was that he didn’t want to be outside any more. He hid away at the slightest sound. But his naturally friendly personality quickly started to show and his love for home comforts now knows no bounds. Just give him a window sill to stare out of and that’s enough ‘outdoors’ for him!

He loves to doze next to you on the sofa, and will climb on your lap for a fuss, although he will politely tell you when he’s had enough of being stroked and cuddled with a soft nip on the hand, which is happening less and less as he becomes closer to us. He also likes little headbutts and gets so giddy with affection that he dribbles.

When he’s not napping, he’ll be hoping you’ll play a little game with him. He absolutely loves interacting with humans and a feather on a stick and will have him running around, honing his chasing skills. He also loves his catnip toys and will ‘kill’ them several times a day. After all that exercise, fuss and napping, his favourite pastime is following whoever is going to the kitchen, sitting quietly, hoping for a snack. Not that you’d know he’s there - his meow is so quiet it’s like a little whisper.

Gaius is around 4 years old and FIV positive, but it doesn’t bother him at all. In fact he seems quite relieved that he will be an indoor cat now. More time to spend being loved and fussed over.

Gaius likes to meet new people on his own terms but doesn’t like noise and seems to prefer a quiet, stable existence with routine. For that reason we think he would prefer to live with a couple or single person with whom he can build a special relationship. He has so much to give, has bags of entertaining personality and is so grateful to be off the streets that he just wants to find someone who will love him as much as he will clearly love them 

If you can offer Gaius a home, please complete an application form and a member of the team will be in touch.

 Retirement Home Needed

At 16 years old, Macky is a wonderfully affectionate gentleman who adores human company. He’s the kind of cat who will happily curl up beside you, purring contentedly and soaking up all the love you’re willing to give.

Macky spent much of his life as an outdoor adventurer, but he’s just as content living indoors these days. Whether you have a garden he can potter around in or a cosy sofa he can claim as his favourite spot, he’ll settle in beautifully.

With age, Macky may be developing a bit of potential arthritis in his back legs. He’s currently on supplements to keep him comfortable, and it certainly doesn’t stop him hopping up on the sofa for cuddles. His spirit is as warm and affectionate as ever.

He has lived around other cats in the past, and with slow, proper introductions, he could happily share a home again.

If you’re looking for a calm, loving companion who will reward you with endless affection, Macky is ready to bring his gentle charm into a forever home.

If you can offer Macky a home, please complete an application form and a member of the team will be in touch.

 Her fosterers have said: 

"Truffle is genuinely one of the sweetest little cats we have ever fostered (and we have fostered hundreds!). She is a small young lady with a charming tortoiseshell coat. Very friendly, she came up to us for stroking and attention the moment she arrived. 

She is a little timid at first but once she gets to know you she loves being around people. She could be a lap cat, though she’s equally happy just to sit next to you and keep you company. She talks to us quite a lot with her cute little meow, and she is very grateful for treats like Dreamies.

She’s also been friendly towards our other cats so would get along fine in a multi-cat household. She just wants to make friends with everyone!"
