A happy adoption story - Amber kitten and Stevie ( formerly Mr Stique) are thriving in their new home together.
Catherine says - These guys are good friends now. Stevie is still a scaredy cat but gets braver every day. Our kitty is happy and adventurous.
I saw the tabby you posted about yesterday and thought about having 3, for a few minutes!’

Hard to believe but no- one is showing interest in Chris the gorgeous green-eyed male Tabby. He is a lovely boy maybe 9 months old and waiting patiently for you ❤️

Looking for help - do you have the skills and could you donate some time to help us with grooming (shaving?) this poor cat?

She has come from a family break up and the mats in her medium length fur are well beyond our capabilities. We know it is probably uncomfortable for her so we would like to get her sorted ASAP.

Grateful any assistance 🙏

Update on the cats from the drains.
Firstly, thank you to everyone for your concern.

Cat 1 ‘Creamy’ was found to be about 2 years old. She did not have a microchip and was not desexed. Unfortunately, this meant she was not the lost cat that had been reported to us. She has now been vet checked, chipped, vaxed and desexed and she has been adopted by someone living nearby who had been feeding her.

Cat 2 had been reported to us over recent weeks as looking quite sick and with something wrong with her tail. After a few failed attempts at trapping her we were finally successful. She did not spend the night by the drain as has been suggested. The vet check revealed that she was very old and had no teeth. On top of her tail problem she had cat flu (which was affecting her eyes and breathing) and the vet thought thyroid and kidney issues were also evident. It is never an easy decision but we agreed that in the circumstances it would be a kindness to euthanise her.

Sammy is looking for an empire to call her own.

This magnificent female cat has shown up at a farm that is already home to six rescued cats.

Sammy is a really large cat, friendly, but intimidating to other cats and she would be perfect as solo queen of her domain.

She walks like a wild cat and there is some speculation as to her ancestry. 🤷‍♀️

If you think you can give this magnificent cat somewhere to reign supreme then please be assured that she is desexed and microchipped - 991003003611487

Please get in touch if you would like to meet her and we will put you in touch with her current custodians. https://share.google/KLS0LrQHbg03AQTsl

Looking for a friendly female cat? Then look no further. Today we are introducing fabulous Squizz. Squizz is Nook and Cranny’s mum.

She is maybe 18 months old? Good with both kids and dogs and very smoochy. Relaxed enough to make friends at the vets when she went to get desexed. What a ⭐️

Good news. This sweetie has apparently been living in a drain in Yass for ages 😢 but the good news is that a kind local has been putting out food and we now have her safe. We will check for a microchip and do some vet work and then we think the person who has been feeding will adopt ❤️

Avon is a shy girl but loving once she gets to know you. This black and white ‘catten’ is a real stunner and at about 11 months old is well-trained in all respects and only needs someone to love. As you can see from the photo she is fine with other cats but she will do best in a quiet home.

Looking back on the 12 months from July 2025 to June 2026, we’re feeling incredibly grateful — and incredibly proud.

🐾 99 cats were adopted into loving forever homes
🐾 106 cats came into our care
🐾 9 more were supported in the community

None of this would have been possible without the amazing people who support Yass Valley Cat Rescue.

Thank you to everyone who let us know about cats needing help, helped us trap them, opened their homes to foster, donated food, equipment or funds, shared our posts, and especially, welcomed our cats into their families. ❤️

Every message, donation, share, foster and adoption makes a difference. Together, you’ve helped give cats a second chance and a place to call home.

And remarkably, we had only 7 foster fails along the way! 😻😂

From all of us at Yass Valley Cat Rescue — thank you for being part of our rescue village. We couldn’t do it without you! 🐾💛

Update 7 August - Adopted ❤️ thank you for your interest in Nook ⭐️

This is Nook. Nook likes books, and curling up in the crook of your arm (or leg - or anywhere really!)

Nook is about 6 months old and is well socialised with children and dogs. He is calm, gentle, confident and affectionate and loves cuddles. He is small- framed and has such soft fur!

Nook was rescued by a caring community member, along with his mother and sister. He had a large hernia when he was found, which was treated, and he hasn’t looked back since.

And yes, if you think you have seen Nook before - he was previously adopted and is back through no fault of his own - he can't help it if he's too cute for some adult cats to handle!
