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.

Jessie
Foster in BristolMore floofy cattitude!
Jessie is beautiful and definitely knows what she does and doesn’t like!
She’s lived with children and could do again but she’s not a cat you can mess around or sling over your shoulder thank you very much – you’ll get told off!
She’s not a lap cat but enjoys a fuss and even having her belly rubbed..for a short while.
We get the impression she’s tolerated, rather than enjoyed, the little humans and consequently keeps her distance a bit. Hopefully that will change in a quieter home as she’s actually really pleased to see you and comes running to greet you.
She does hate other cats though and turns the air blue if she sees one; she’s also desperate to be out in the garden again so needs a safe space away from busy roads.
She is quite vocal so you may wish to put her in the kitchen overnight until she can go out!
She’s a very pretty, sweet little girl who would benefit from owners happy to give her some space and let her do things on her terms to begin with.
2 years old, neutered, chipped, had first vaccination plus comes with 5 weeks free insurance.Are you ready to adopt a cat from Bristol & Wales Cat Rescue? Make sure you read our Adopt page and complete our Adoption Application form.

Chester & Willow
Foster in BristolVery friendly and playful 2 year old brother & sister who lived outside for the first part of their lives but have adjusted well to life indoors. Both have lovely natures and are people orientated but are not used to being handled so will take time to settle in a new home. Would not suit very young children as they are still quite shy but are making good progress and enjoy being smoothed.

Henry
Foster in Bristol, ReservedHenry is the nicest, friendliest, cuddliest cat in the world yet his owners took him to the vet to be put to sleep. Why? Because they allowed him to get to 7.2kg so the poor lad couldn’t fit through the cat flap any more and they wouldn’t give him a litter tray. Thankfully our vets were as disgusted as we were and refused.
And what a gem he is, albeit a rather large one! He’s happy and purry and loves his humans so much – you’ll need a strong lap and he may suffocate you in bed 😂 He loves to chat and will let you know when he wants a fuss; he loves his belly rubbed, in fact, he likes to be rubbed/stroked/scratched just about anywhere.
He’s in good health and just needs to lose some weight – he’s on diet food and is down to 7kg and luckily he’s actually not that interested in his grub; unluckily he’s not that interested in exercise either! He will chase a piece of string for 30 seconds but hopefully, once he can go outside again he’ll burn off a few calories.Henry would be fine with children but needs to be an only puss and would like a garden away from busy roads.

Jasper
Foster in Bristol, ReservedJasper is the brother of Tikka, he is a very affectionate sweet boy who loves his food and a decent scratch. He’s much more confident in new surroundings and is a bit of a social butterfly. He has a spark of playfulness in him as he’s been known to chase shoe laces!
He’s healthy and in the process of having all his vaccinations updated. Jasper is very youthful for 11 years of age.
Best to be rehomed with Tikka.
