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

Tika
Foster in BristolTika came into foster because her family had to move and couldn’t find a place to rent that would accept her so reluctantly gave her up. Tika is nearly 3 years old, shy until you know her but then she loves a fuss and won’t sit still for photos! This pretty tuxedo cat would love a place on a sofa in a quieter adult home as the only pampered puss as she is a bit of a diva. She will need someone who will be patient whilst she settles in the first few weeks. Tika is neutered and her vaccinations are up to date. The vet spotted a low grade heart murmur at her check up but they aren’t worried about it. She will need a garden away from busy roads to go explore once she is allowed outside. - New
Mia
Foster in BristolMarvelous Mia is a real sweetie and people-lover. She can't get enough cuddles and strokes; she will jump up into any hand that hasn't given her a scratch in the last 5 seconds, and will give a little chirp to remind you of your cuddling duties. She will even pass up Dreamies in preference for a good human hand scratch and nuzzle. She took a bit of time to settle in, and now is happy to sit on a lap and purr all day. She's timid by nature and was previously bullied by other cats, so we are looking for an adult only home, without any other pets, so this pampered puss can get all the attention she craves. She will still run and hide under the sofa when she hears a loud noise or if you leave the room, but she's slowly getting more confident. She has been running from one side of the flat to another, looking out the window at all the activity outside, so we think she'd love to go and have an explore.

Arlo & Gus
Foster in BristolCat name: Arlo & Gus Cat age: 2 (Arlo) & 1 (Gus) Cat colour: Tabby/white & black/white Cat breed: DSH Location: Bristol Good with children? Older children only (10+) Good with cats? No Good with dogs? No Need outside space? Yes Chipped? Yes Vaccination status: None Neutered? Yes The biography: Neutered and chipped 2 year old father Arlo (tabby & white) & 1 year old son Gus (black & white). Arlo is confident and loves fuss while Gus is quite shy but making good progress. Both have lovely natures but would not suit young children as Arlo especially is excitable and likes to nip occasionally. They love their food but are greedy at the moment so mealtimes and food availability need to be carefully managed but both are making progress. They have lived with another cat but are best as a pair on their own. Are you ready to adopt a cat from Bristol & Wales Cat Rescue?
