Adopting a cat or kitten from a rescue doesn’t just mean that one cat gets a home. It creates a ripple effect. 🐾

When you adopt, you free up a space in foster care or at the rescue, allowing another cat or kitten to be taken in, cared for and given the chance to find their own forever home. 😸

You’re also telling the rescue that what they’re doing matters. That their work is valued. That there are people willing to choose rescue and give these animals the second chance they deserve. 😸

Choosing to adopt rather than buy from a breeder also helps reduce the demand for cats and kittens bred for profit. It sends a simple message: there is a need for cats who already exist, regardless of where they came from. 😸

Every adoption makes a difference. Not just to the cat you take home, but to the cats still waiting. 😻

And then there’s the most beautiful part.

You open your world to a cat or kitten, and in return, you become their entire world. 🧡

Give a rescue cat a chance. You might just change two lives — theirs and yours. 🐾

Duchess and Aristokits, new rescue!

As autumn brings colder, damper conditions, the cat crisis is still raging, with little sign of things calming down. 😿

Our team was alerted to a mum cat and her three kittens living inside a garage. We quickly stepped up to get them all to safety. 🐾

Mum, now named Duchess, was thought to have already had a litter earlier this year, and we wanted to make sure this would be her last. Getting Duchess into rescue means she can receive the care she needs, and once she is ready, be neutered so she doesn’t have to face another pregnancy. Her kittens can also get the care they need and be rehomed safely. 🐾

The feeder had been considering putting the kittens up for sale on Facebook Marketplace, but rehoming through a rescue is much safer for vulnerable kittens. It means they can get the best possible start in life, including a full vet check, microchip, vaccinations, flea and worm treatment, and an agreed neutering plan.

For us, it’s about giving them more than just a safe place to go — it’s about giving them the chance of a healthy, happy future.

Keep an eye out for updates on Duchess and her three little Aristokitties soon.

It's thanks to our volunteers, supporters, and adopters we can do missions like these. Thank you for helping us to Save a Stray.

Sunday Sweet Story: Elfie's happy ending.

Elfie was found in a garden with her young kittens. She was a wonderful mum and did an amazing job raising them, but she was more than ready to be safe, warm and cared for indoors. She particularly liked the regular meals! 😸

Once her kittens were grown, they each found their own loving homes, and it was finally time for Elfie to find her happy ever after too. 😻

Yesterday, Elfie joined her forever family, Emily and Andrew, and her new bestie, Lucy. Her new family are already taking such wonderful care of her, and Elfie is settling right in. 😸

This Sunday, Elfie and Lucy get to spend some time together — the first of what we hope will be many lazy Sundays side by side. 😸👧

We’re so happy that Elfie has finally found the loving home she deserves. ❤️

If you’re looking for a new feline friend, please take a look at our available cats — there are more happy endings waiting to happen.

🐾 Caturday Round Up! 🐾

A round up of the cats and kittens we have available this Saturday, this list is ever changing, so do get in touch to find out who is available.

✨ Boop & Snoot — bonded brother and sister, 15 weeks old. They must be rehomed together and will be neutered before they leave. They’ll be ready soon!

✨ Curls, Ringlet & Bobble — three beautiful 10-week-old girls and bonded siblings. These three must go together. Bobble is still learning to trust humans.

✨ Rex — a handsome 3-year-old boy who would prefer an adult-only household.

✨ Clive — 2½ years old. Clive has had an eye operation and is now looking for his forever home. He’s a big love bug who has plenty of affection to give.

✨ Pearls — would be happiest in a calm, quiet home with adults only.

✨ Tweedle & Dee — bonded siblings, 13 weeks old, looking for a home together.

🐾 All our cats are neutered, microchipped and treated for fleas and worms, most are vaccinated.

Our kittens are microchipped and will either be neutered before rehoming or come with a neutering agreement, depending on their age and readiness. They will also be treated for flea and worms and usually vaccinated.

If you think one of these lovely cats could be the missing piece in your family, fill out an adoption form today. ❤️

Please remember that adopting is a lifetime commitment, so make sure you're ready to give your new friend the time, patience, love and care they deserve.

📍 All of these cats are in foster in South Yorkshire.

Friday Fiver.

This is Tony. Tony didn't want it to be like this. To suffer like he is.

This is the cat crisis .
This is neglect . 💔

Tony is just 8 years old.

Not neutered.
Not microchipped.
Needs dental surgery.
Ears full of black wax as a result of ear mites.
His eye is under watch in case it needs removal. 😿

This is the cat crisis in the UK in 2026. The crisis is now out of control and beyond the scope of what small rescues can cope with.

You don't need to be a vet to see it will be expensive to fix Tony. It will take a lot of money and time and patience. But we will do what it takes to get him back on track.

He’s been living rough for some time and getting beaten up too as his body is full of injuries. 😿

Be better
Neuter the boys !

If you can help us to help Tony, please do. Thanks for helping us to Save a Stray.

Suey, a stunning tortie kitten, is looking for a loving home. 🧡🖤🤍

Beautiful Suey is one of our Chinese takeaway kittens. She's now 19 weeks and looking for a home of her own. 😻

She's a confident older kitten and loves company from humans and cats alike. She loves fuss and will rub against you for attention. She also loves her food and to play😸

She's not a fan of loud noises, so a grown up house may be best. She is not fussed by dogs.

She's in foster in Rotherham and has been:

Spayed ✅
Chipped ✅
Vaccinated ✅
Treated for fleas and worms ✅
