Finding Forever Homes for Cats in Bristol and Wales
Hello, we’re Bristol and Wales Cat Rescue, a small and friendly group of volunteers dedicated to finding loving homes for cats and kittens in need.
We rescue, foster and rehome hundreds of cats every year across the South West and Wales, cats that have been badly treated, abandoned or just unwanted. Most of our pusses have no special requirements, and are waiting to spend an afternoon purring away on a comfy sofa.
We do things a little different around here. All of cats are fostered either in our own homes or in purpose-built, warm, secure pens in our gardens. We don’t have any sterile facilities, and we don’t put cats to sleep unless it’s the only option recommended by a vet.
Nothing makes us happier than seeing a cat or kitten find their forever home, which is why we accept adoptions from families with lots of different lifestyles and locations.
Latest Cats Looking for Fur-ever Homes

Buddy and Byron
Foster in BristolWe have two more marshmallows 🧡🤍Byron and Buddy are 2-3 yrs old and likely Persian mixes, part of a group rescued from the streets after being abandoned in a parking lot by a breeder. Byron, a gentle giant weighing nearly 6 kg, is laid-back and serves as a calming presence for Buddy, who weighs 5.4 kg, especially when Buddy feels nervous around new people or unfamiliar environments. True to their breed, both cats have sweet, calm, and gentle temperaments, preferring cuddles and relaxation over high-energy activities.Affectionate by nature, they will often jump next to you for attention and chin rubs before wandering off again. Both will even come when called for morning pets and are quite vocal, happily saying hello or reminding you when it’s mealtime. In between their naps and lounging, they enjoy brief play sessions with stick toys and love watching the world go by from the window or bird videos on cat TV.Their super-soft, thick fur requires daily grooming, which they happily accept, purring loudly during the process. They would thrive in a quieter household where they can relax in peace and receive plenty of love and affection.They must stay together and need a garden away from busy roads/catio to keep them safe.Neutered, chipped, vaccinated with 5 weeks free insurance.Mail us at [email protected] with your address and contact number if these glorious floofballs are the ones for you 🙂 
Lucky and Magic
Foster in BristolHappy National Black Cat Day 🖤🖤And boy does the Cat Distribution System seem to be sending us all the black cats!Sadly Lucky and Magic have had to come back to us as their owner's shift pattern has changed and he's now away from home too much. They've had so much upheaval in their short lives - their first owner passed them to a relative who then surrendered them to us so this is their 5th home already and they're only 18 months 🙁These sisters are wonderful; they love a fuss, love to play, love their hoomans and love each other, they have just the nicest natures despite everything.Can we make their next home, their furever home?No pressure but we're relying on you 🤣They'll need a garden away from busy roads/catio to keep them safe, older children would be fine and they'd like go be the only pets.Neutered, chipped, vaccinated with 5 weeks free insurance.Please mail us at [email protected] with your address and a contact number if these little panthers match your furniture (hint - black goes with EVERYTHING !!)
Thunderpounce, Spookipaws and Poppet
Foster in BristolThree Halloweenies looking for homes!!! 9 weeks old ready to go on 1st November when they will be chipped and had first vaccine. Two little black boys and a tabby and white girly whirly. Very playful and friendly and impossible to get a decent pic!We would love for all three to stay together but that's a big ask so, potentially, one boy could go to a home with another young cat or kitten.They'll need a garden away from busy roads/catio to keep them safe.
Our Longest Foster Residents
Daisy
Foster in Wales, ReservedCalling all tortie lovers! 🖤🧡🤍Daisy is a lovely lady around 10 yrs of age. She likes to sleep most of the day and watches birds out of the window and sometimes meows at them.She’ll play with a small ball if she’s in the mood and is happy to meet other people but doesn't like small children and will run away and hide. She lived with them previously and was very stressed. She doesn’t mind other cats but is not fond of dogs!She’s likes a gentle tickle on her belly, surprisingly, and a smooth on the top of her head 🙂Her owner, due to declining health, has had to move into an extra care home and now lives on the 3rd floor so Daisy is unable to get out and she does love a garden.It’s with a heavy heart that her owner has decided to rehome her as she's not happy as an indoor puss.Neutered, chipped, first vaccination plus comes with 5 weeks free insurance. Daisy is still with her owner in Pontypridd to save her the stress of a move into foster.Mail us at [email protected] with your address and a contact number and give us your answer do, if you're half crazy over Miss Daisy 🎵🎶

Dandy and Doris
Foster in Bristol, Reserved🎃👻By the pricking of my thumbs, something floofy this way comes 👻🎃Meet Dandy and Doris - two purrfect little Halloween kitties!Both gorgeously lovable bushy-tailed cats and just so easy going. They are a little wary of strangers as they were living outside but are enjoying learning all about home comforts again.Once you gain their trust they want all the fuss and attention they can get. They were straying within the same garden area and dear little Doris ended up running into a house and having 3 kittens, clever girl!She’s so petite and just a big kitten herself - sweet-natured and likes to chirp to you.Dandy is around 1 yr and he often has a funny five minutes with the zoomies, he loves toys and is a cheeky little chap.
