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.

Would you like to
welcome a cat into your home?

Latest Cats Looking for Fur-ever Homes

  • Lucky and Magic

    Happy 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

    Three 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.
  • Olympia

    ,
    The Ultimate Package
    Guesstimated to be about 2 years of age, Olympia was found in a garden, without an ounce of meat on her bones and 7 tiny kittens to feed.
    Dealing with the needs of 7 kittens is no easy task but this amazing mama made it look like a walk in the park.
    Nothing seemed to phase her and she remained attentive and loving throughout, ensuring that each kitten was well-fed and cared for, often cuddling them close, providing warmth and comfort as they grew and explored their surroundings.
    Teaching them to play, fight and hunt she ensured the kittens developed into well rounded little individuals and inherited her loving personality.
    Now her little ones have flown the nest, it's Olympia's turn to shine and shine she most certainly does!
    Affectionate,  playful and curious, Olympia embodies the perfect blend of independence and companionship, making her a delightful presence in any home.
    Her favourite activities include chasing feather toys, discovering all the different treats available to eat and sunbathing in the windowsill where she has the perfect vantage point to see her returning human, enabling her to run and greet them at the door.
    We believe she would be fine with another cat and children due to her ability to easily adapt to her new surroundings. She would love a garden away from busy roads/catio to keep her safe.
    Olympia is chipped and has had her first vaccination, her second is due mid November.
    She is booked to be spayed at the end of November and comes with 5 weeks insurance.
    Is this the companion you have been waiting for? If so email [email protected] with your address and contact number and this fantastic feline could be the perfect addition to your home.

Our Longest Foster Residents

  • Daisy

    ,
    Calling 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 🎵🎶
  • Pixie

    ,
    Remember Twinkle our eyeliner mama? This gorgeous little fella is from her first litter and was living on the street. He's only been in foster a short while but is coming on in leaps and bounds.
    He needs a patient, quieter  home to continue his education and he'll be a soft, soppy velcro kitty in no time - they always are!
    "Hello,  I'm Pixie, semi long furred 7mths approximately.  I am quite nervous until I trust you as I was born outside. I'm full of fun and love to play night and day lol.I purr like a train when happy, I now need my own family who can give me lots of attention.  Older children only and maybe another cat to show me the ropes. Xx "
    He'll need a garden away from busy roads or a catio to keep him nice and safe.
    Neutered, chipped, had first vaccination plus comes with the usual 5 weeks free insurance.
    Mail us at [email protected] with your address and a contact number if this little mischief maker is the one for you ❤️
  • Dandy and Doris

    ,
    🎃👻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. They're definitely making up for lost time. Dandy came in first and then Doris some weeks later, they still remember one another bless them.
    We have a feeling they might just be related 🤔!!
    They'd prefer a quieter a home and a garden away from busy roads/catio.
    Neutered, chipped, vaccinated with the usual 5 weeks free insurance.
    No tricks involved, treat yourself by emailing [email protected] with your address and a contact number 🙂
