Rehoming cats rescued by the RSPCA in the North East and North Yorks. Based in Darlington, Co. Durham

**OUR REHOMING PROCESS**

Step 1:

Fill in our Perfect Match adoption form! This can be done via three different ways:

- Email Sophie, our Rehoming Co-ordinator, to request a perfect match form. ( [email protected] )

- You can view and print a copy of the form via this link http://tinyurl.com/3xkup8vd

- Or complete the form online here http://tinyurl.com/4k9pdjvs (this will automatically be sent to us!)

You can express a preference for any cats you have seen on our website or our social media pages. However when you are contacted, you will be advised whether you are a match for a specific cat. Please make sure you live within one hour’s drive of Darlington before applying! (We can advise on how to find a RSPCA centre closer to you if you are too far away to adopt from us!)

Step 2:

Sit back and wait! Waiting time for us to respond to applications is around two weeks, so please be patient! Step 3:

Your details will be added to our database and you will be contacted when a perfect match is found! When we have a perfect match you will receive an email or phone call, asking for further information and to discuss your future feline friend. Step 4:

If we can offer you a cat or kitten for adoption, the rest of the application process will be completed via phone, email and a virtual home check via online chat will be completed. Step 5:

If the adoption process is successful, your cat will be brought to your home by experienced RSPCA staff. There is an adoption fee to pay when you get your new feline friend:

- Kittens under 6 months: £110
- Cats 6 months - 6 years: £100
- Cats 7 years or over: £90

Step 6:

Live happily ever after with your new feline family member! If you have any questions or need advice, don’t worry, you will receive ongoing support from us following adoption!

Adoption update 😻🐾

Buddy & Chrome left the Cat Hub over 4 years ago, and what a beautiful journey it’s been!

Chrome came to us as a feral boy, but somewhere along the way, he and Buddy fell head over paws in love and became the most perfect soulmates. 🥹💕

Now, their family has shared a lovely update on how they’re getting on, especially as the colder weather arrives!

“Now it’s turning colder they love to get cuddled up to each other next to me on the blanket. Chrome loves to get inside covers and blankets all the time too. Loves a snuggle. Come along way form the day we picked him up”

From a feral boy finding his feet to a cat who loves nothing more than a cosy blanket and a cuddle, Chrome has come such a long way and with his soulmate Buddy by his side, he’s found exactly where he belongs.

These are the updates that make everything worthwhile! 🐾✨

Adoption update 😻🐾

Remember Electra, now known as Pippy? ❤️

Pippy came into our care pregnant and did a wonderful job raising her kittens before it was finally her turn to find a forever home. She had a difficult recovery after reacting badly to her neutering sutures, but thankfully she recovered and went on to find her happy ever after! 🏡💕

But her story didn’t end there! Pippy gained a kitten friend called Penny, and the pair have become the very best of furry soulmates, spending every waking and sleeping moment together.

We’re so happy Pippy has found not only a loving family but also her very own best friend and are so beyond happy she is getting to live the wonderful life she deserves❤️🐾

Sonny Jim's Tongue out Tuesday is so spectacular that he even has a live audience 😼

Although we're unsure what his canine friend makes of it.... impressed, perplexed or in awe? 🤔

Adoption update 😻🐾

Our lovely Penguin has well and truly come out of his shell in his forever home! From cuddles and making biscuits to playing with his favourite toys and rearranging his tunnel, it sounds like he’s settled in perfectly!

His family have shared this gorgeous update:

‘Hello again! Just wanted to reach out and give you an update on sweet Penguin. 🐧 He’s completely come out of his shell since move in day. He is possibly the cuddliest cat I’ve ever met! He loves to climb on top of us and make biscuits on our laps. His favorite position is curled up against my side during nap time with his head resting on my arm. He’s also really warmed up to toys, and the dangly kind are his favorite during playtime! He also loves his tunnel, which he pushes around the room to rearrange the layout to suit his needs. He’s the perfect addition to our family and we are so grateful he’s ours. Thank you again so much for all of your help, he is the best!! ❤️’

We’re so happy to hear Penguin has found his people and is getting all the love and cuddles he deserves! Thank you for the wonderful update!

🧡 Meet Spirit! 🧡

Spirit is a gorgeous ginger tabby boy, approximately 6-7 months old, who’s full of fun, confidence and personality! 😻

This little adventurer is ALWAYS on the go! He loves to play, climb and investigate absolutely everything, so you’ll certainly need to keep your eyes on him! He’s also a big fan of his food and treats, so there’s plenty of ways to win this boy over.

But beneath all that energy, Spirit has a very sweet side too. He loves a cuddle and will happily sit on your lap for some quality time with his favourite humans. 🥹

🏡 Spirit could live with other friendly cats and would likely be suitable for a home with children

🐾If you’d like to apply to adopt, and you live within one hour of Darlington, please email [email protected] to request
a Perfect Match application form.
