Bob

Bob is a gentle, sweet-natured boy who just needs a little time to find his confidence. He can be shy in new situations, but with patience and a calm approach, Bob soon relaxes and begins to enjoy human company. He feels most comfortable in quiet surroundings and may hide if startled by loud noises. Once settled, though, Bob truly shines. He loves curling up on a warm lap, enjoys being gently stroked, and adores being groomed so much so that he happily dribbles when hes getting a good fuss! Bob enjoys human contact when approached kindly, and he forms lovely bonds with those who give him the space he needs to warm up. Hes a very affectionate boy once trust is built. Bob would be best suited to a quiet home with no other pets and older children who understand his sensitive nature. Hes used to having plenty of outdoor space to explore and would love a home where he can continue to enjoy that freedom. Bob is a truly lovely companion waiting for the right, understanding home.

John Boy

Meet John Boy a gentle, sensitive soul looking for a calm place to call home. John Boy came into our care as a stray meaning sadly, nothing is known about his past and no one has come forward to claim him, but he has shown us that he is a sweet boy who is naturally a little nervous, preferring a quiet, predictable environment where he can take things at his own pace. John Boy is looking for a patient, understanding home that will give him the time he needs to settle and build trust. The cattery environment has been a little overwhelming for him, so we havent yet seen his playful side. However, once he begins to feel safe, he has been known to quietly offer himself as a lap warmer for short periods a lovely sign of the affection hes capable of when he feels secure. John Boy has a heart murmur graded around 34, which has been fully investigated by our vets. He does not require medication at this time but will need routine monitoring health checks. He is looking for a calm, adult-only home or perhaps one with an understanding teenager, probably with no other pets, and where he can enjoy a peaceful life and form a gentle bond. With patience, kindness, and a quiet home, John Boy has the potential to blossom into a very sweet companion.

Tina

Tina is a gentle, sweet-natured lady who adores a good brush and a soft fuss, purring contentedly while shes being pampered. She enjoys sharing quiet moments with her people and especially likes to eat with company nearby, finding comfort in your presence. Tina enjoys short bursts of play, particularly with her fishing rod toy, before settling down again for a well-earned rest. One of her favourite things is sitting on a warm lap, where she can relax and feel safe. She also loves to knead, showing just how content and settled she feels.

With patience and a calm environment, she soon relaxes and returns to her affectionate self. Tina would be happiest in a quiet home with older children who understand her gentle nature and can give her the reassurance she needs. Shes a lovely companion for someone looking for a calm, loving presence.

Becky

Becky is a confident, sociable cat who loves human company. She actively seeks affection and will happily hop straight onto your lap, ready for a cuddle.

She can be a little sensitive to sudden noises or movements and may briefly hide if startled, but she soon settles once things are calm again.

Phoenix

Meet Phoenix, a confident and affectionate cat with a wonderfully loud purr and a love for human company. Phoenix is very sociable and actively seeks attention, happily leaning in for fuss and gently pawing you if you stop too soon. He adores chin rubs, often rolling around in delight, and enjoys being groomed as part of his bonding time. While he prefers to keep all four paws on the ground, he will choose to sit on a warm lap when he feels settled and relaxed. In familiar surroundings, Phoenix is calm and self-assured, though he can be shy in new situations and may hiss if he feels worried. With patience and reassurance, his loving nature quickly shines through. He is sensitive to noise, so he would be best suited to a quiet home with older, cat-savvy children. Phoenix is known to be a good hunter and would enjoy safe outdoor access once fully settled. He has previously had surgery to correct entropion in his left eye, which has been successfully treated and doesnt affect his day-to-day life. If youre looking for a gentle, people-focused cat who loves affection and calm companionship, Phoenix could be the perfect addition to your home.

Lola Jnr

Lola is a sweet affectionate girl who loves attention and a fuss, perhaps chatting to you about her day, but likes a little time to get to know you first. She is not a pick-me-up and cuddle type of girl, liking the security of her own four paws, but does like to offer a little lap time for a spot of R&R. Lola thrives in a calm and quiet home. She found children overwhelming in her previous home so is looking for an adult only home, or perhaps one with understanding older teenager, which will need direct access to a garden in a location away from busy roads. We understand she has lived successfully with another cat so she may be open to sharing her home again with a calm cat experienced companion, provided theres plenty of space and slow, thoughtful introductions.
