Adopt a Cat
If you would like to offer one of the sanctuary cats a loving home, please get in touch, or call into the sanctuary premises. You can view some of those ready to be homed here.
The necessary process is as follows:
- First, come to the sanctuary and see the animals here, and decide if you wish to take one home.
- After making your choice, your name and address will be taken down by a member of staff – this enables us to do a home check, which is necessary for all animals leaving our care. The success of the home check will be based upon the adoptee living within a safe distance of any main road or railway line. This will be carried out by a member of staff within a couple of days.
- A suitable candidate for cat adoption will then be asked to finalize the adoption at the sanctuary. This involves filling in the relevant adoption paperwork and paying a donation of £50. Your £50 will cover the vetinary expenses on the FIV (feline AIDS) and FELV (feline leukemia) inoculations. The cat will also have their first and second vacinations and, if over 6 months, they will be spayed/neutered. If you are adopting a kitten you will receive a slip to take to one of our affiliated veterinary clinics in your area, who offer the sanctuary reduced prices. This is for the cat’s benefit as the sanctuary does not make a profit. You will also receive a 6 week pet cover plan insurance. One in three pets need treatment for an illness or injury every year, and as the animal gets older the incidence increases dramatically. So please do consider the benefits of insurance for your pet.

If you would like more information on adopting an animal or any other matter please contact the sanctuary between the hours of 12 noon and 4:30pm, or alternately email us here.
