Silus is an adorable male kitten approx 3-4 months old. He was found abandoned with an injured leg. As a result he has a bit of a bendy front leg but it causes him no trouble. We are looking for a home where he will lives indoors and have access to outside away from busy roads.  He is litter trained.

 

Harvey is an 18 month old male cat who is a very playful, happy young cat that loves affection, but is also happy to sit in the background and watch the world go by. He is looking for a new home as his owner had to move back to England and  sadly couldnt take him. We found him a home but there was already a 6 year old cat who unfortunately she did not get on with him.
Harvey would be best suited to a home with no other cats, or cats that would be  tolerant of having a new cat around. He would also do well with a dog that gets on  with cats. We would really like his next home to be a permanent residence as Harvey has had a very erratic start to family life.

Kiki  who is about 6 months old, was found in Bishopstown in September and  has been living indoors since. He is friendly, very playful and mischievous and has a hearty appetite. He loves a cuddle and is always purring. The people who found him would love to keep him but got a dog just before finding Kiki!

Well, this is me standing by the cat food tins as usual. I must admit I look rather handsome. I walked into Kozykats Cattery after being on the road for sometime, 
but the owner already has 12 cats of her own so there is no room for me and I need someone else to take me on. 
I am about 1 year old, neutered and can be rather timid and nervous if I don't know you, but once I do, well, you cant get rid of me. I love cuddles and kisses and get on with the dog here and other cats.  
All I ask is for a nice warm bed, food, love and no main roads please, and a name please because I haven't got one.

Skye is a neutered male cat, tabby and white approx 2 years old. He is litter trained and very affectionate. Skye loves attention, but his first love is food! Skye is FIV positive so anyone who wishes to adopt him will need to understand that he will need a little more TLC than your average cat. However he is in perfect health and should remain that way for a long time. This beautiful boy has bucket loads of love to give to anyone who is willing to take him on.

Hades is a neutered male cat approx 18 months old. He is a stunning black, sleek cat with a lanky build. Hades is FIV positive but in perfect health, in fact he pretty much bounces. Anyone who wishes to adopt him should understand that he will need a little more TLC than your average cat! He is a very playful, loveable boy who loves to sleep at the end of the bed. Hades is the most affectionate cat and will be a devoted companion to anyone who would offer him a forever home.

The two big issues in cat welfare are unwanted breeding and the terrible spread of viral diseases - like cat flu.

Vaccinate!

Just two initial shots, followed by an annual top-up will protect your cat against a basketful of killer diseases, including cat flu ( which would be better named "cat rot" according to vet Rosa Keily) and the deadly leukaemia. So give your cat the 'needle' and a long and healthy life.

Neuter!

Whether domesticated or feral (wild), cats breed at an astonishing rate. Constant 'kin breeding' results in weak and sickly cats starving and dying everywhere.

The solution is simple - NEUTER. Castrated  males and spayed  females wander less, avoid fight injuries and infections, hunt efficiently and have only themselves to support. Spayed females don't attract tom cats who spray, fight and screech in your back garden at 3am!
Neutering is safe and humane, and prevents the birth of millions of unwanted kittens whose only future is suffering and death.
