Jackson
was a stray in North London, he had an eye
injury, was un neutered and full of wounds from
fighting.
Pree
is looking for her forever new home. Pree came
to us with her litter of kittens awhile back and
she was then placed in a long-term foster home
due to being semi feral and being couped up in
the cattery was no life for her. Unfortunately,
she is lonely and needing a furry companion.
Pree is semi feral very nervous certainly not
aggressive and at the vets she displays
submissive behaviour where she can be cuddled.
Do you have a placid cat who would bond with
Pree. She needs to be confined to one room
initially and introduced slowly to the existing
resident cat you have. This will also encourage
socialising Pree with her new owners. She is a
gentle girl for sure. This type of behaviour is
just becaus
e
she was never socialised as a kitten into
adolescence and so its always a work in progress
often not months but years. Its about Pree's
needs and your existing cat. Not the owners its
about giving her a life of stability, safety and
another furry companion. Pree is young
approximately 4 years old. Could you offer Pree
what she needs. 
Meet
Twinkle Toes approximately 8 years old, a sweet
girl, friendly, loves to purr but shy. She was
being fed for many years as a stray. Sadly,
having a few litters over the years. The feeders
decided they couldn't take care of her anymore
so that's when we received the call. We
immediately said yes as at 8 years old we
certainly didn't want her having any more
kittens! She has now been vet checked, spayed,
vaccinated, chipped, Wormed and de-flead.
Meet
this gorgeous boy such a friendly chap and loves
attention. 
Orpington Cat Rescue. We went to scan the cat
that evening on our way to the vets with another
cat for treatment as she had no cat carrier to
get him to vets herself. The chip details
revealed the current address but none of the
telephone numbers connected. So, it was decided
to contact the owners via the estate agent. The
owners proceeded to explain that it was owned by
the son and he didn't realise he chipped the
cat. There were other personal reasons but still
didn't explain why after feeding a cat for 6 +
years would be just left behind to fend for
himself. If you feed a cat for that long give
them shelter and chip them you are then
officially the owner. They agreed to sign him
over. Gizmo is now safe in foster care. Thank
goodness the new owners of the house clearly saw
this cat was needing help and loved cats and
didn't deter him away. He must have been so
hungry as when he was given food, he absolutely
scoffed it down in no time. We can only assume
he hadn’t eaten in 3 days. Poor wee boy. 
Meet
the gorgeous Luna, Luna has a bit of a story she
was first alerted to us by a kind man who lived
a few doors away from where Luna lived. Sadly,
she wasn't being taken cared for due to the
owner's addiction habits. We were full and we
offered treatment for Luna to help and the kind
man offered a permanent home for Luna as she was
constantly left to her own devices in all
weathers, day and night. Few years on sadly Luna
new owners were now moving overseas due to work
commitments and a better opportunity for his
young family. He isn't abandoning Luna he is
very concerned for her welfare and at aged 15 he
wanted Luna to have her last few years in a home
something he couldn't give anymore. We could of
declined and like many could be critical but we
have to remember in Luna's desperate time of
need a few years ago he was there for Luna and
has been ever since.
As
Luna was still chipped to Orpington Cat Rescue
also part of our adoption agreement is we will
always take them back regardless of reasons. So
here we are now looking for loving home for Luna
at a senior age of 15. Luna has had a full blood
profile completed with no signs of any medical
conditions we would often see in a cat Luna's
age, fully vet checked, fully vaccinated, wormed
and de flea, obviously neutered and had a full
dental. She is now ready for her new chapter in
a home with no other pets and a quiet home so
she can settle quickly. She is friendly and
loves affection. 
We
took Bo Bo in before Christmas he had been
bullied and was very stressed in his home by 4
other cats the owners had tried desperately to
make things work but sadly the only option was
to rehome him he had very bad skin condition
lack of fur, sores and infection on his body and
ears and after many weeks and months of high
dose of steroids, several courses of
antibiotics, adjustments in medication and
allergy food trials. His skin, ears, eye, sores,
irritation and fur has healed we are finally now
at a stage where Bo Bo is ready to find his
forever new home. He will need to continue to
stay on low dose steroids 1 tablet a day which
he takes in his
food
no problem not even crushed and also on a mix of
allergy dietary food which again he loves and
eats no problem.
