**We haven't received any interest in these cats unfortunately**

Beryl, Amber and Medlar 💕💕💙

These beautiful cats are up for adoption due to their lovely owner sadly passing away 🥹

They are well known to us as their owner was one of our own 🥹

They have always had outdoor access in a safe, very low traffic area with the ability to come and go as they please.

They are used to the somewhat peaceful life. They do not demand attention and would not cope in a busy home with young children or dogs.

Understandably they will be very nervous initially and it will take time for them to adjust to a new home environment. You will need to be patient and understanding, all they’ve known will be changed!

They are not bonded as such and can live in a multi-cat residence, but with calm, kind cats …

Medlar and Amber are friends and ideally we would love see them rehomed as a pair 💙🩷

Beryl is Amber's daughter, but we wouldn’t class her as bonded. She’s a free spirit and loves a day in the sun ☀️

They are not needy cats and are very independent. Medlar loves to climb on a knee to bake his biscuits when the need arises 🥰

We made a promise to find the right home and humans for these gentle cats and this is a promise we will be keeping 🥹

Liz kept the cats that needed her and now they need us to secure them a settled future.

Medlar is around 5/6yrs
Beryl is 6
Amber is 7

They are all neutered and microchipped.

Meet Ted the terrier!

Ted is a 3yr old male Jack Russell looking for a fresh start!

This little chap has already had 2 previous owners and been kept confined, shut away from family life 😞

His life so far has lacked structure and routine. His needs as a young terrier simply haven't been met.

Ted has been under socialised, he didn't get walked previously and is an energetic young lad who wants to be out exploring, but is also a little bit nervous.

He is an old fashioned terrier in size but he does pull on the lead! He has not been off lead while in foster and has intrusive thoughts abouts chasing birds 🤭

Ideally he needs an experienced terrier home with no children.

Reactive to other dogs on walks but this is just a result of being scared/excitable. He doesn't know how to interact with them. However, a ball is life for Ted and as such he is very trainable.

Ted can live with another calm dog if they are not bouncy, he is currently in foster with 2 large dogs and only gets upset if they jump on him. He is not tested with cats.

He can be left alone for up to 4hrs, he is crate trained and house trained.

Ted is friendly with his people and will sit on your knee or the sofa next to you for strokes 🥰

Meet April, our beautiful mammy cat with the sparkling blue eyes 💎

Whilst this young girl is a little timid at first, she will soon warm up to you, and will then be asking for chin rubs and head strokes.

She's a delight to have around - friendly, playful, fully litter trained, eats wet and dry food (but much prefers wet).

April likes company and is gentle around humans, so could likely live with children. She is fine with the older dog in her foster home and was initially friendly with the cat before she gave birth.

Since the arrival of her kittens she has become understandably protective of them, but its likely once she moves to her new home so could get along with another cat again.

April is a real stunner with very rare sea-blue eyes, silky soft fur, and an agile body. She loves to run after toys, stare at birds out the window, and growl when unknown dogs walk past 🤭

Please say hello to our wonderful Zog 🐾

Zog has been waiting for his home for quite a while now and we can’t understand why ☹️

He is a lovely, gentle boy who likes to curl up on your knee. He is affectionate without being needy or clingy and is very sweet natured.

In his previous home Zog had access to outdoors and he is asking to go out. He needs a new home where it will be safe area for him outdoors.

Zog has not lived with another cat or dog, but is in foster with a cat savvy child with no issues.

This gentle cat just needs a family to love him now 💕

Marvellous Mavis 💕

This girl is simply devine, she feels she is royalty and we have to admit she is 😻

Mavis sadly found her self homeless after her owner passed away. Sadly straying for a period of time took it’s toll on her 😢

Mavis was clearly a loved cat at some point, her personality is shining through and her beautiful coat is coming back.

She’s had the all clear at the vets and is lapping up being back safe indoors, with copious amounts of love 🥰

Her first day in foster she found her throne and now she sits, ever so regal, she’s just looking for her crown 👑

Could you be the one for our beautiful Mavis? She’s 13 years young and we know this because she was microchipped.

We don’t know Mavis full history we haven’t dog or cat tested her, as she’s very happy been an only queen 😻

If you would like Mavis to consider your application please apply via our website:

Meet Ethel 💜 and Dotty 🩷

These lovely little dogs came into our care recently after being handed into the vets as strays. Sadly their owners did not come forward to claim them.

We think they are around a year old and a Chihuahua/Terrier mix. Ethel is the tan girl and Dotty is black and tan. They have both been spayed and microchipped now.

The girls are in foster with another young male dog and Ethel really enjoys playing and running with him in the garden. Dotty is a bit more nervous and has taken a while to relax with him, she isn't so keen to share the toys but has got much better with time to gain confidence.

They are used to having doggy company so will need a laid-back male companion if rehomed separately.

Overnight they settle in a crate together, but during the day they will cry when left. These lovely dogs need a home that can be around a lot and work on this with them so they feel more settled when left.

Ethel is very loving with humans and will throw herself on the floor to ask for tummy strokes 🥰 Her foster dad says she purrs like a cat when she snuggles in!

Dotty is also very loving and will bury her head into you while having strokes. She likes to lie on the back of the sofa and snooze in a sunny spot too!

They both love to cuddle up on the sofa with their human and are affectionate little dogs.

Whilst they are only small, they do enjoy walks and currently go out twice a day on lead. They currently pull on lead due to the excitement and all the new sniffs!

As we do not know any history we cannot say if they have lived with cats or young children previously, so a home without both would be best. They have met visiting children and been comfortable with them whilst in their foster home.

If you are interested in adopting one or both of these girls, please apply on our website:

Spot and Fluffy... we will let you guess who is who 🤣

Both girls are a bit shy initially, but in time do warm to you and enjoy a fuss.

They are both 18 months old and have only ever been indoor cats.

Both are spayed and chipped and ready to have a fresh start 🥰
