Top 10 Reasons to
Adopt an Older Cat »»
Harder to Home
Cats with minor health problems find it harder to be rehomed, yet rescue centres will often pay for their vet bills even after rehoming.
Shrinking Violets!
Very shy cats so often get overlooked, yet these can be the most loyal of pets once you have gained their trust.

Cat Fostering
Would you like to care for a cat, but don't want the lifelong responsibility that goes with it? Many rescues rely on cat foster homes to care for cats 'between homes'. Could you be a cat fosterer? Find out more here Cat Fostering
Indoor Cats
Want a cat, but live in a flat? Although a cat's natural instinct is to go outside, some cats can be better suited to the indoor life: Cats with FIV, deaf cats, blind cats, or very nervous or elderly cats. Ask at your local Rescue Centre

THE CINNAMON TRUST
Registered Charity no: 293399
The national charity for elderly people, and their much loved, much needed companion animals. A network of 8,000 volunteers “hold hands” with owners to provide vital loving care for their pets. The trust aims to keep them together - for example, by walking a dog every day for a housebound owner, fostering pets when owners need hospital care, fetching the cat food, or even cleaning the budgie's cage. And when a pet is bereaved the Trust takes on their full time, life time care.
Short-Term Foster Homes Needed: Temporary, short-term foster homes are needed to care for bereaved cats whilst a Lifelong Home is being found, and also for when people need a hospital stay and require temporary foster care for their cat. Please contact us if you could help.
Lifelong Foster Homes Needed: Lifelong Foster Homes are required for cats left in the care of The Trust. Future Veterinary fees will be paid by The Cinnamon Trust. Please contact as below if you could offer a home for life to a bereaved cat.
Please Note: The Trust is not a rescue centre taking cats in for homing, but when an elderly owner dies, and their animal companion is left in their care, the Trust will do their best to find a loving, life-long foster home for them.
Postal Address: 10 Market Square, Hayle, Cornwall TR27 4HE

Pedigree Cats also find themselves in rescue centres, for the same reasons as many 'moggies' - a change in the owner's living arrangements, the family is emigrating, relationship breakdowns and divorce, a family member develops an allergy, the owner has died or gone into a care home, and many more reasons. There are many excellent breed-specific rescues across the country - if you are looking for a Pedigree Cat - click the link below for Pedigree Rescues...
