Polly
Polly
Polly is a pretty girl of about 6 years old. She was living rough but a lady started to feed her and gain her trust so she could be chip checked. Leaflets and knocking on doors could not find her owner so she came into foster.
Polly loves a chat and a fuss and will get straight on foster mum’s lap to snooze. She does get reactive to too much fuss though and will need someone experienced with cats to understand her body language and series of meows, she has begun to improve in foster. She loves her cat nip ball and chasing a bit of string so play will really help her to bond with a new family. She is best in a child-free house with a garden to go out in once she is ready. She hates other cats so needs to be the only pampered princess in the home.
Polly is vaccinated and chipped ys cone with 5 weeks free insurance. . We think she has been neutered as there have been no signs of kittens but we would fund her neutering at our vets if needed.

Sofia and Ellena
Foster in BristolSofia and Ellena 5 mths old
These two girls aren’t sisters but are best of friends so needing a home together, they are sweet and playful though Sofia can take a bit of time to warm up to people so a home with older children would be best, Ellena just loves everyone.
Sofia is very needy and wants to be wherever her foster mum is even if that’s at the sink cleaning her teeth especially as both the girls love water and become mesmerised by a running tap.
If you are looking for a cat shadow and a pair of lap warmers these girls are for you.
Both have had 1st vaccinations due 2nd very soon, not neutered but we will cover the cost for this. Definitely need a garden away from busy roads and a cat flap would be preferable.
New
Hope
Foster in BristolShe didn't choose the mum life, the mum life chose her sadly and, after several litters of kittens, she's finally to be spayed. She doesn't know it yet but a lovely new life awaits her instead of living rough and giving birth over and over again in a garden.
She's about 18 months old and would like a quieter home with no young children or other pets as she learns what love and safety is all about for the first time. Oh and comfy beds, regular meals, toys and treats! She'd also like a garden away from busy roads for a sunbathe and a potter when she chooses, rather than a nursery for her rambunctious little munchkins.
Hope will be available in a couple of weeks when she's been spayed, chipped and started her vaccinations.
Hamish
Foster in Bristol Ah right pal? If it's nae bother, wee Hamish here is looking for a new hoose 
"Hamish is a lovely 8-year old, Maine Coon cross - just a big ball of floof really!
He had to leave the owners who got him as a kitten as they sadly can't take care of him anymore. They describe him as sweet and gentle, often out and about in the day and coming in to say hi in the mornings and evenings.
He has been a little tentative in his foster home, enjoying a safe spot under the bed most of the day. He's an absolute sweetie in the evening, coming out for lots of fussing and a brush (a must with his long fur!).
Given how cautious he is in new places and with loud noises, Hamish needs a patient forever home, with no dogs or small children - he'd probably prefer to be the only cat in the house as well. We are sure that with time to settle in a new place he will come out of his shell even more than he has with his fosterers. He'd love to spend his days pottering around a garden away from busy roads.
Note he's only into dry food - his previous owners tried to give him both wet and dry but he is only interested in the kibbles!"
Neutered, chipped, had first vaccination plus comes with 5 weeks free insurance.
Biggie
Foster in Bristol, Reserved Biggie is a lovely 11 year old tabby boy, who has been a joy to foster. His previous owner recently had a baby, which has caused Biggie to have stress cystitis and his previous owner has reluctantly made the decision to rehome him to find somewhere quieter where Biggie will be happier. Biggie settled in with us very easily and was keen for strokes and affection almost immediately. He now loves to sit on a lap and will purr away while having his belly stroked. He doesn't require too much entertainment and will happily lounge around for a long time, but also has enjoyed chasing a ball or just some string. Biggie has a prrscription diet of urinary food to reduce the risk of his condition returning, and a Feliway diffuser also for stress relief, which he will have to continue with his new owner. His previous owner has also donated Biggie’s supply of food, medication, Feliway and a cat carrier he is comfortable with using. He had one episode when he first came to us - just the stress of the move and has been fine ever since. Biggie would like a quiet house away from busy roads, with a garden to explore and someone who can give him lots of love and attention. He should not live with small children or other cats, which may increase the chance of his cystitis flaring up, but he is friendly with guests and new people. Requiring only a little extra care, Biggie will make an excellent companion for anyone looking for a friendly, loving cat.
We'd like Biggie to go to someone who will stay in touch with us as we will cover any vet bills relating to his cystitis at Fernlea vets in Kingswood and Hanham and also help with the cost of his food if necessary.
Neutered, chipped, vaccinated plus comes with 5 weeks free insurance (for everything except his cystitis!).
