🐾 Kittens Looking for Homes, Now! 🐾

We have several adorable pairs of kittens ready to find their forever families - and they’re ready now! ❤️

We completely understand that many people are waiting until after the summer holidays to adopt, but right now we have kittens who are old enough, healthy, and eager to start the next chapter of their lives.

By adopting now, you’re not only giving a pair of kittens a loving home, you’re also helping us create space to take in more cats and kittens who need our help during our busiest season.

👍Advantages of pairs:

🐈🐈 When they are bonded, they choose to spend time with eachother, meaning they can grow up with a built-in best friend

🐈🐈 They bring fun, companionship, and plenty of kitten antics into your home

🐈🐈 If you're at work during the day, these two will keep each other busy until you get back home, and they'll be happy to see you!

If you've been thinking about welcoming kittens into your family and you're in a position to adopt now, we'd love to hear from you.

🐾😸 We’re recruiting cat fosterers this summer 😸🐾

Summer is one of the busiest times for rescue cats and kittens, and we’re reaching out for help from our community.

We need reliable, responsible and caring foster homes to support:
🐱 Orphaned kittens
🐱 Mums with kittens
🐱 Adult cats
🐱 Senior cats needing a calm, comfortable place to recover or rest

Fostering is one of the most important ways you can help save lives. By opening your home temporarily, you give a cat a safe space to thrive and you help us free up already limited space in the shelter so we can rescue more cats in need.💖

If you have a pretty free summer and want to make a difference, fostering could be for you.🌞🐈🐾

We provide support, advice, and all the kitty essentials - you provide the patience, care, and a safe environment until their forever home comes up.🏡

If you’ve ever thought about fostering, now is the perfect time to get involved. Short-term fostering makes a huge difference to cats' lives, so get in touch now!

If you want to read a little more about fostering first, check out our info page here:

Thank you for helping us give rescue cats the second chance they deserve ❤️

We have had some tough cases recently, poorly mums, poorly kittens, poorly and injured adults, it sometimes seems never ending for these poor little beans 😥
What we need at the end of the day is a little pick-me-up...❤️‍🩹

Watching cats and kittens being carefree, having fun and just being cats after coming through illness and injury, really makes us smile. 🥹

It makes us feel privelaged to do the job we do, and it's very entertaining!
So here's a sneak peek of Claire and her kittens, who until recently were quite poorly. Now they are gaining weight, eating well and are very active!
We also think it's comical how they follow the sunbeams around the room! 🌞

Earlier today, we posted our beautiful senior citizen, Suki, predicting the winner of the next football match (come on England!).
Suki is looking for a kind and generous hearted person/s to take her home and give her the tailored care she’s looking for.
Suki is affectionate, playful, loves catnip, and loves to catnap!

Here at The Sheffield Cats Shelter, we love all mogs, but the seniors always hold a special place in our hearts.
They are each individual, they like different things, they have different quirks and idiosyncrasies, but the one thing they all have in common is, they make wonderful companions.
These guys are worldly, they have seen it all in their time and they are wiser than us. They appreciate the little things and home comforts, and they have mastered the art of wrapping us humans around their pinky toe!

Suki is a sterling example of this, and if you’ve never experienced an older cat in your life, maybe she is the one for you?

Today, on Mature Moggies Day, we have one of our gorgeous mature moggies predicting the next football match winner for us.

Proving that senior cats have more love, affection, entertainment and personality than some would give them credit for!

Suki’s prediction is that England will win…..what do you think? 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿
