Smurf
Smurf the stray snugglepuss is now ready for adoption 💜
He’s an adorable boy about 3 years old; another stray tomcat needing a dental and terribly matted but so much comfier and happier now. He loves fusses and will lie partially on my lap and cuddle in. He loves company, lik-e-lix and a good old brush of his now beautiful coat. He makes the cutest little chirrups when you fuss and talk to him. He’s a quiet boy to begin with and timid of strangers but he loves to play with his toys and it doesn’t take him long to warm up to people. He’s never met children but should be ok with older, calm ones and we don’t know how he is with other cats unfortunately. He’d love a garden away from busy roads.
Neutered, chipped, vaccinated, had a dental, FIV/FeLV negative plus comes with 5 weeks free insurance.

Patch
Foster in BristolIt truly is a happy day as he was actually booked in for euthanasia as he wasn't getting along with the other cats in the house - seems his life was as disposable as a washing machine :(
Another rescue refused to take him stating they're only taking in kittens as "no-one wants to adopt adults." Not true - we've rehomed 21 adults already this month. Thankfully the euthanasia was booked at the PDSA where one of our volunteers works and Patch came to us.
"Meet Patch, our gentle soul who will naturally bring warmth and joy into your home! This handsome 7-year-old long-haired cat is as charming as he is affectionate. With his stunning white fur adorned with elegant black spots, Patch is a true beauty inside and out.
Patch's calm demeanour and love for attention make him the ideal companion for those seeking a furry friend to share quiet moments with. He adores being pampered and cuddled, and his gentle purrs will melt your heart in an instant.
A connoisseur of catnip and a dedicated nap enthusiast, Patch knows how to enjoy life's simple pleasures. He would thrive in a tranquil environment, free of other cats, where he can bask in the love and care of a devoted owner."
He'll need a garden away from busy roads and definitely no other pets in the house.

Bambi
Foster in Bristol, ReservedBambi is a super fluffy 5-year-old Ragdoll cross with loads of energy and love to give. She follows her fosterers all around the house to get a fuss or a play. She is sometimes tempted onto a lap if there's a fluffy blanket, otherwise she will sit on the floor next to you, keeping you company.
She has been going a bit stir-crazy in foster so would really enjoy a good amount of safe outside space to zoom around in, away from busy roads. She is used to being the only pet in the house, we haven't seen how she would get on with other pets.
She has been very calm with new visitors and noises and we expect she would settle into a new home quickly. She can get carried away when playing and sometimes gives a little nip, or goes for an ankle. For this reason she shouldn't be homed with young children, but we think she would get on with older children who understand a cat's boundaries and help keep her entertained with her toys.
Bambi came into foster with a little dry cough, but this has responded well to a short course of steroids. Fernlea vets suspect she has some mild asthma, which could be treated with steroids again in future if needed. Otherwise she has passed her health check with flying colours!
Neutered, chipped, vaccinated plus comes with 5 weeks free insurance. BWCR would cover the cost of steroids at Fernlea vets, if necessary.
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.

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.
