MARSH AND MALLOW - age 8 weeks at taking into foster.  Pair BSH pedigree kitten boys. Red/white bi colours.  Indoor.

Location near West Midlands in foster home.
 
Will be kept as pair as are brothers from same litter.    Litter trained.

No kids under 8, to ensure are kept indoor as they are also scared of loud noise and may adapt to dogs, as have heard dogs in home.

Will not be ready to adopt for a few weeks (end March) to finish vacc and neuter, etc.

Shy at present and may need a bit more time to settle and get used to handling .  To be adopted as a PAIR only - will not be split.  Adoption fee £300 each (so £600 for pair).  Will come with toys, stands, litter trays and beds.

They may have had a slight reaction to first vaccination (sneezing on same day but ok since) but also had strong flea/worming on same day which may have been too much - vet will be consulted before next vaccination.  We have therefore decided to rehome as a pair either with no other cats or with a cat(s) who may have already had cat flu/calici as a precaution.  They will be neutered/wormed/flea treated before rehoming.

Before applying for a Strawberry cat please read the following.

1. Unless otherwise stated, our cats are strictly indoor only. This means that windows/doors cannot be left open in any room to which the cat has access. A cat cannot be trained to be indoor only - it must be supervised. All members of the house must be in agreement, and understand about keeping doors and windows closed. We are happy to re-home to a flat but, likewise, this means windows closed and no balcony access, unless the balcony is totally cat-proofed (netting all the way), same is true for roof terraces, so that they cannot drop to their death.

2. Unless otherwise stated, we do not re-home to children under 6 years old. If there is nothing stated to contrary, assume the cat cannot go to a child under six. For other cats, please also bear in mind that some cats may also be found to be unsuitable, even for children over 6. WE DO NOT HOME WITH PEOPLE PLANNING CHILDREN, AS SO MANY CATS ARE GIVEN UP JUST BECAUSE CHILDREN ARRIVE OR CATS DEVELOP BEHAVIOURAL ISSUES AFTER BABIES ARRIVING

3. It is a requirement of our adoption policy that lifetime insurance is obtained and maintained for every cat adopted. We provide 5 weeks free insurance with every adoption, but the original policy may not suit you and as we are not financial advisors you should seek out the best and appropriate insurance to suit your own needs.

4. Most cats are in Greater London, Essex or Worcestershire (an hour from Birmingham), with some fostered further afield like Durham at times. See each listing for details - if not detailed it will be Greater London, London or Worcs. Cats cannot be adopted by public transport - you must be able to collect by car or get a taxi home from fosterers home (many get a lift or get a taxi home with cat and things). If you are happy with the above criteria and want to enquire further or reserve a cat, please email.
