Claude
Claude
“Claude is a gentle and affectionate boy who loves strokes and to be groomed (which is lucky as he needs a helping hand with all his floof!) He takes a little while to settle in, and needs a quiet hiding place to retreat to, but once he feels safe he enjoys company and will start to greet you in the mornings and when you get home. He has a small meow that doesn’t seem fitting for a cat of such stature, and a lovely rumbling purr which starts up whenever you speak to him, and he reaches his paw out to let you know when he needs more attention. Although he has a shy nature, he hasn’t been phased by visitors, but would likely prefer a mellow household with older children only and no other pets.
He is honestly such a gorgeous cat, I totally fell in love instantly!”
This 6kg handsome hunk of solid muscle needs a larger open top carrier to adequately contain his floofy gloriousness and he’d love a garden away from busy roads.
The vets guestimate him at 3 yrs, he has had his trouble nuggets removed, his chip implanted, first jab and will be having a few matts removed at his second jab next week.
We’re really pleased that you’d like to proceed with an adoption application. Before you fill out the form below, please make sure you’ve read our Adopt page so that you are familiar with our process.

Midnight
Foster in Bristol, ReservedWe seem to be having a run of black cats but hey, we like a challenge 💪. Simba, Shadow 1 and Shadow 2 all left the building this week, so please welcome Midnight 💜
He has a sad story- an owner severely neglecting himself and having to be moved to temporary accommodation by his safeguarding team, Midnight was pretty much left in one room to amuse himself.
That must have been hard because this boy just loves attention, so much so that this is the only usable photo - the others are all big black nose boops!!
He's such a little sweetie, he purrs instantly, comes running for a fuss, loves all the scritches and scratches he can get.
He can be startled by sudden movements and noises, the rustling of a food bag behind him will panic him momentarily but that will stop over time.
He shares with two oldies and ignores them so could be fine with another nice cat but we think a quieter home with no young children whilst he gets back on his paws.
He's about two yrs and would love a garden away from busy roads.
Had the snip, chip and first jab (having to be creative rather than unprofessional here because of FB algorithms!) and comes with the usual 5 weeks free insurance.
Andy and Saint
Foster in BristolSaint (tortie and white) and Andy, aptly named by the vet as they were caught on an industrial site on St Andrews Road. They were older kittens when they were caught and took a while to trust us. They are now both very affectionate, with Saint being the bravest and coming for cuddles first. We're not sure Andy will ever be a lapcat but he likes to sit next to you and enjoys lots of attention!
They are gentle cats that like the company of other cats, they love to play together and will spend as much time as you can spare chasing a feather on a stick.
They need to stay together as this lovely brother and sister are really bonded, they have been in foster most of their lives so will have no road sense and need a garden away from busy roads.
Neutered, chipped, vaccinated plus come with 5 weeks free insurance.
Smokey
Foster in Bristol, ReservedOur little stray puss, found by a kind elderly couple, has never been claimed so she's now looking for a new home 💜
Smokey was very scared when she first came in to foster, but over time, she has become so much braver. She now loves being around people and will happily come and say hello to my friends :)
She's a sweet little girl who is very affectionate and loves a cuddle (but does not like to be picked up). She'll happily curl up on your lap and loves to be stroked. She is very happy to play with her cat toys and especially likes chasing the feather on a string
She is very patient and will quietly sit and wait for me, in the mornings, to wake up for her breakfast.
Smokey would like a garden away from busy roads, without other pets. We don't know what she'd be like with children but she may prefer the quiet life.
Guestimated at 8 yrs, neutered, chipped, vaccinated plus comes with 5 weeks free insurance.
Nancy
Foster in Chippenham, ReservedNancy Fancy Pants, as she's become known, definitely has some Oriental in her; she's stunning-looking, very intelligent, and is finally beginning to find out what it is to be a proper kitten herself! Once she's feeling comfortable with her people, she loves to play, and clambers all over her foster mum for attention - often on work calls, much to the amusement of the others on the call. Be warned though: she may trample across your computer keyboard too, and her spelling is atrocious...
She can still be inclined to give a nip or a gentle bat of her paw occasionally if she suddenly feels overwhelmed, but it's not with any malice, so it's likely with time she'll grow out of it altogether. For this reason, we feel she'd be better in a family with no younger children. She doesn't seem fazed by her foster mum's own cats; she's respectful but unafraid, so she may be OK with another cat, but no dogs!
Nancy would enjoy a quieter home, with some safe outside space away from any busy roads where she can bounce off some of her kittenish energy once she's settled. Her new people will need to be willing to work patiently with her to help her build her confidence, but they'll be rewarded with a real little gem of a house panther.
Fostered in Chippenham; neutered, chipped, vaccinated plus comes with 5 weeks' free insurance.
