Appeal for Homes (This page has been updated on: 12th May 2008)
Could you home a cat or kitten?
This page is devoted to cats who have been rescued by Cats' Aid. We are urgently in need of people
willing to give cats
permanent homes - this would enable us to help many more cats and
kittens.
Below are just some of the cats we have in our care.
Please leave your name, address and an evening landline tel. no. when you contact us by phone or email. Thank you.

As well as the cats and
kittens seen below, we have other lovely cats and kittens who are not featured on this page but who are also looking for loving permanent homes, so please contact us by email at catsaid@gmail.com or telephone us on our helpline number (01) 668 3529, and please remember to leave your name, address & a landline telephone number & we will call you back as soon as possible. We do not have a shelter or sanctuary so our cats & kittens are looked after in the homes of our fostering volunteers, but we are very happy to make arrangements for you to come and see any of them if genuinely interested. |

Meet Roxy
Roxy was abandoned recently - perhaps because she was pregnant. She was
lucky enough to stray into the garden of a concerned man
who
obtained veterinary treatment for her. She could have stayed
there but
the resident cat took exception so we are looking for a home
for Roxy.
She is a semi long-haired, tabby & white beauty, little more
than
a kitten at 9-10 months old. She loves people & other animals.
She will
fall asleep on your shoulder & loves basking in the sun.
Roxy has
been spayed & vaccinated & she is house trained.
This
lovely girl deserves a chance to be a kitten again; if you can
give
her that chance please contact us on 6683529.

Meet Misty and Magic:
Misty and Magic are sisters who have been together since birth. They have a strong friendship so we want to home them together. They love to play, sneaking up and pouncing on one another or chasing each other up and down the stairs. Afterwards they'll each pick their favourite spot and sleep it off before doing it all over again. Both are quite friendly and will quite quickly jump into a warm lap of complete strangers at times. They are not used to other animals and bar one or two brief excursions both have been kept indoors all the time. They are about 2 years old and have been vaccinated and spayed. If
you can offer a home to this appealing pair please phone 01 6683529.

Meet Stacy: I am Stacy, the friendliest cat ever. I will wait for you
to come home
& spoil you with head butts & purrs. I have a gum condition,
not
infectious, which necessitates a visit to a vet when it flares up. Most
of the
time I am fine. At present I am happy in a foster home but would love
an
indoor forever home where I would be an only cat. Take a chance on me; you won't regret it. I am 3
years
old, spayed & vaccinated with bags packed & ready to go. Love,
Stacy.
Cats' Aid would pay all expenses related to mouth
condition at
designated vets. |

Meet
Precious:
Precious is an appealing tabby & white male cat that urgently needs a new home as her owners are emigrating. Precious is 3 years
old, vaccinated & spayed. Like her owners she has packed her
bags & is ready
to bring her affection to a new family.
To enquire about this delightful cat please phone Cats' Aid (01) 668 3529. |

Meet Zara: Zara is a
very attractive dark tortie/white cat, about 1 year old, spayed &
vaccinated. She is still just a kitten, very playful, loves her toys
& tummy
rubs &
soaks up attention.
Zara was
orriginally homed (not by us) to a foreign national who decided
to return
home & passed her on. Finally she came into our care. By then
one eye
had been injured & had to be removed. This is hardly noticable
&
doesn't hinder
her in any way.
Zara is
looking for an indoor, adult home where she will be an only cat.
Having
some company during the day would be preferable to long hours
alone as
she is very sociable.
If you can
give this deserving little cat a home please phone Cats'
Aid 6683529.

 Hugo
 Fifi
|
Meet Hugo and Fifi: Hugo
& Fifi were abandoned & left to fend for themselves when
their owner had to go into a retirement home. Now they are
urgently looking for a new home. They are brother & sister,
neutered & spayed, approx 6 years old. They are affectionate little
cats but they may need a bit of time to adjust to having a home &
family again. Their lives have been turned upside down; can you make
things better for this appealing pair?
Please contact 01 6683529. |

This is Joe: Joe came to our attention when he was brought to be euthanased because his owners no longer wanted him. It was discovered that he had an untreated wound & severe diarrhoea & euthanasia was again suggested. Cats' Aid does not euthanase if there is hope of recovery, so Joe received the treatment he needed. He is now completely recovered & is affectionate, chatty & playful. He can still get a bit anxious with people he doesn't know & is not suited to young children. He has a beautiful, strong, typical boy cat nature & will be an interesting & loyal companion. He has been neutered & vaccinated & is litter trained. Joe has been snatched from the jaws of death twice; now can anyone offer this courageous, big hearted cat the home he so richly deserves? To enquire about Joe Phone Cats' Aid (01) 6683529 |

Meet Missy: * Booked * Missy was abandoned when her owners could no longer keep her & she spent some time outside in the cold of winter before being rescued. She had a hard start to her young life & is still understandably a little timid. However, she has come on in leaps & bounds in her foster home - trots about the house quite comfortably & gets on well with the two resident cats. Missy loves to play with her favourite toy (a little sock) & loves to have her head rubbed. She takes a little time to get used to new people but her sweet & affectionate personality will shine through. Missy is about 9 months old, spayed & vaccinated, & is waiting for a quiet, adult home. If you can offer this most appealing cat the home she deserves please contact Cats' Aid (01) 6683529 or email catsaid@gmail.com |

Meet Wanda:
Wanda - We don't know her
history but we do know that she is a clever cat. Finding herself a
stray
she had the good sense to wander into the home of a veterinary
nurse! She could have remained there but she & the resident
cat
didn't see this as a possibility so we are looking for a wonderful home
for
Wanda with no other animals. She is extremely people friendly
& is
spayed, vaccinated & microchipped. |
 |
Meet Sable and Judy: * Booked * Sable,
(the grey cat) & Judie are two 1 year old sisters that urgently
need a new home as their owners are emigrating. Sable is a heart
breaker - loves to cuddle; Judie is a little shy but will pick a
favourite person. They have lived as mainly indoor cats & they are
used to children. We would like to home them together as they are great
friends.
If you
would like to offer a home to these two appealing cats please phone
6683529.

Meet Banksy and Brooklyn: * Homed * Banksy and Brooklyn are two lovable kittens looking for a warm indoor home. These two sisters were rescued from a garden and have been living in an apartment for the past three months. They are now almost six months old. They have all of their vaccinations, they've been spayed, and they are extremely healthy. In a new environment they will probably hide initially, as they are timid, but when they are used to you they love to sit on your lap for hours and take long naps on the couch. Their favorite toys are bells and yarn and they are inseparable. To enquire about these kittens please phone 6683529. |

Meet
Pippa: * Homed * It’s hard to understand why there has been no interest in this eminently homeable cat. Pippa is a very loving, affectionate, low maintenance, healthy cat – simply a joy to have. Her foster carers love her to bits and she is very happy there but it is only a temporary arrangement and we would love her to have a permanent “forever” home of her own. Is there anyone out there who can offer Pippa a kind home? She really is such a joy and deserves not to be overlooked. Pippa came into our care because of a change in her owner’s domestic circumstances. She had been with her owner since she was a kitten but we are now looking for a loving new home for her. Pippa is a very bright, youthful 12 year old cat in extremely good condition and very healthy… her teeth are the envy of many a cat half her age! She is an intelligent, curious, very friendly cat, very pretty, very loving and very well behaved. She would do well as an indoor cat. Pippa is ready to go to her new home, she is fully vaccinated, healthy checked and has been spayed. If you would like to enquire about Pippa or arrange to visit her and see for yourself how lovely she is, please contact Cats’ Aid on (01) 668 3529 or email catsaid@gmail.com |

Meet Amber: * Homed * Amber is a
young cat (under 2 years old) that has had a really tough time.
She
was found at Mondello, injured, with a young kitten that
didn't survive.
The injury
was most likely caused by being kicked; this has now healed.
Amber is
timid - she was bullied by the other cats at Mondello. She is
frightened
of dogs
but loves people & cuddles. She would probably be best suited
to an adult home.
Amber has
suffered so much; she deserves the chance of a better life.
To enquire
about Amber please phone 6683529 or Email catsaid@gmail.com.

Meet Tselem: * Homed * This is Tselem ('Shadow' in ancient Hebrew.) Tselem is a particularly good-natured young cat & very good looking. He was hand reared from 2 days old & has never been outside. He comes from a multi cat household so would be an ideal companion cat. He is not used to children. We are looking for an indoor home where he would not be alone all day.

Meet Felix: * Homed * I am Felix, and I am looking for a loving home. I was very happy with an elderly couple in a retirement complex. Because of rules & regulations I could not remain & my heartbroken owners had to give me into care. I am 2 - 3 years old, neutered & vaccinated. I am affectionate & would suit a home with an older person. If you would like to enquire about me please phone Cats Aid on 01 668 3529 or Email catsaid@gmail.com |

Meet Caesar &
Ramses: * Booked * Caesar and Ramses, 18-month-old brothers, are beautiful tabby and white cats that will steal your hearts and keep you laughing with their antics. If you’ve always wanted a dog but live in an apartment, these are the boys for you. They chase and fetch balls, chirp at the window when a bird is spotted, adore boxes and find adventure in small things. Caesar charms everyone with his sleek appearance, huge hazel eyes and confident and affectionate demeanour. He loves nothing more than to get his belly rubbed or to play with catnip mice. Ramses is by far the shyer of the two, taking a while to warm up but very loving once he’s comfortable in his new surroundings. Both cats adore dogs to an almost inordinate degree, having been raised with a puppy, and as far as they are concerned, every dog is their sibling. Both boys are neutered, vaccinated, microchipped and ready for travel with their pet passports. To enquire about Caesar & Ramses, please contact Cats’ Aid on (01) 668 3529 or email catsaid@gmail.com |

This is Ray: * Homed * Ray was found wandering by a busy road. He is an amazing bright one year old male cat. He is charming and has a beautiful character, very friendly and playful. He can bring lots of happiness and beautiful moments in every day. He has been neutered and is litter tray trained. To enquire about Ray, please phone Cats’ Aid on (01) 668 3529. |

Meet Ernie – the
extra-toed cat! * Homed * Ernie’s fosterer says he is perhaps one of the sweetest, most affectionate, playful cats they have ever met! He is very energetic, loves children, loves to give hugs with his extra toes (he has an extra toe on each of his feet!), and will actually wrap his front legs around your arm to show you how much he loves you. His favourite activities are napping on the top of the cat tree, snuggling with humans under the covers, and playing with his favourite toy – a purple catnip spider which he carries around in his mouth. He is 7 months old and has been neutered and vaccinated. Ernie would be a joyful and wonderful addition to any energetic family who can give him the love and attention he deserves! If you would like to enquire about Ernie, please phone Cats’ Aid on (01) 668 3529 or email catsaid@gmail.com |

Meet Munchkey: * Homed * Munchkey is a very friendly female cat, 7 years old and tortoiseshell coloured. She was abandoned in a vet’s boarding kennels when her owners emigrated and promised they would send for her, but they never did. This is very sad because Munchkey is a really lovely, affectionate, playful cat who deserves much better. She is healthy & vaccinated and has been spayed. She has a lovely gentle nature. Would you be able to give Munchkey the love and attention she deserves? If you would like to arrange to see her and find out for yourself what a lovely cat she is, please contact Cats’ Aid on (01) 668 3529. |

This is Buddy: * Booked* Buddy is 3 and a half years old (born August 2004). He is in need of rehoming as his elderly owner passed away recently. Buddy has been neutered and his vaccinations are up to date. This photo was taken when Buddy was younger, but he is now just a slightly bigger and slightly chubbier cat than pictured here! He has lovely black & white markings, with a little black nose. Buddy would thrive in a quiet, loving environment as he has been used to lots of love and attention. He loves to relax indoors (preferably on someone’s lap!) and is a spotlessly clean, fully house trained cat. He also enjoys being outdoors, and so a home with access to a safe garden would be ideal, as this is what he has been used to his whole life. To enquire about Buddy, please phone Cats’ Aid on (01) 668 3529. |

Meet Buttons & Baby Buttons: * Homed * Buttons is a dark tortoiseshell coloured female cat aged approximately 18 months to 2 years. She is very beautiful and has a really lovely nature. She has one eye missing but this doesn’t cause her any problems. She has been spayed and is fully vaccinated. Baby Buttons is Buttons’ daughter. She is a dark tortoiseshell colour like her mother and is semi long-haired. She can be timid initially with strangers, but soon becomes very affectionate. She is approximately 1 year old and has been spayed & vaccinated. Both Buttons and Baby Buttons would make lovely pet companions. If you would like to enquire about them, please contact Cats’ Aid on (01) 668 3529. |
