    I’m a tiny girl with a huge personality! I like to get my paws involved in everything, don’t leave bags unattended as I’ll jump straight in. I like to think I rule the lounge, strutting around meowing. If you take a little time to get to know me you’ll hear the loudest purr, especially if you stroke my nose I’ll open my little mouth and purr away! I adore my sister Gerdy and would like to go to my forever home with her. Can you believe we’ve been here since kittens and are still waiting to find a family? If you’re looking to add some fun into your life apply to adopt us now!

I like to headbutt you and squeak at you for some love. I rely on my sister Herdy for confidence in new situations, I can’t wait to spend the rest of my life playing and snuggling with her. We’ve been here the longest out of everyone, we can’t believe no one wants us in their family. If you’re looking to add two of the sweetest cats to your life then apply for us now!

I’m a big kitten who loves to play, i’m happy to go to a home on my own as long as there’s lots of space for me to run around! I would love to have a feline friend however it would need to be a very special cat who loves to wrestle as much as I do. I am ready for applications!

    I’m just a big kitten! I was a little unsure when I first arrived but with plenty of tummy rubs and tasty treats I learnt that humans aren’t so scary! I’m easily tempted to play with anything that has a string so keep your shoelaces tied up. My mum, Tita, likes to embarrass me by giving me baths in front of everyone but I love her anyway. We are looking for a home together and are ready for applications!

    As my name suggests I’m a huge boy! I’ve had a difficult few months which means I can take a minute to warm up to new people, once I’ve sniffed your hand and understood you’re safe I will rub myself all over you! I still play like a kitten especially with long string toys, my huge paws are designed to catch and play.

    Hey, I’m Lavigne. I think I have the softest fur ever, you should come and feel it yourself! I’m a slinky girl who can climb up onto your lap without you even noticing, stroke me a few times and I’ll be fast asleep. Once the toys come out I can’t resist leaping in the air after them, especially anything with feathers I find them irresistible. Due to a health condition I am not available for adoption at the moment but don’t let that stop you from coming to meet me and falling in love!

Cats we’ve given a new home

How Adoption works

Are you longing for a new family member to spoil with love and affection?

Have you fallen in love with one of our sweethearts during your visit to the café?

If yes, then why not apply to adopt your purrfect furry partner.

The adoption process is handled in full by our partner, adoption agency and shelter, The Scratching Post. Please complete the adoption form below, filling out all the details in full. If you are successful, you’ll hear from The Scratching Post within two weeks.

In the meantime, we’ll keep our paws crossed for you both!

The Adoption Agency

Our café is a temporary foster home and the cats are “owned” by The Scratching Post (well, no one ever owns a cat, we all know the cat owns you), and the fee paid to adopt a cat goes straight to the shelter. We are very happy to be the connecting point between the kitties, the Scratching Post and now many new happy cat owners.

The Scratching Post has been around since 2004 and can hold up to 130 cats, which includes kitten units and foster homes. Our café is one of their foster homes where the cats live whilst waiting for new forever homes. The Scratching Post aims to relieve the suffering of malnourished, abandoned and unwanted cats in need of care and to provide and maintain rescue spaces for the reception, care and treatment of such animals, and when suitable, rehoming of them. It’s a no-kill shelter too. If a cat is unable to be rehomed, then they stay in the care of the shelter. If a cat is unwell to the point of no quality of life, then they are euthanised on the advice of a vet. Susan and her team are amazing, and they’ve helped so many cats find new loving homes throughout the years!
