Cat Chat Feline Forum

Hello

We are looking to rehome either two kittens (preferably female or one female) or perhaps a kitten and her mother. We have three children (3, 5 and 6) and live in Syresham, Northamptonshire. We both work from home so are pretty much always in. We have no other pets.

Thanks

Caroline

Hi Caroline,

Well done for thinking of rescuing! Main kitten season is April to November, (although some rescues will have a few kittens at other times of year). It's also worth considering ‘older kittens’ between 6 - 12 months old. Or, as you say, a mum and kitten - that's a great idea!

First, please check out our Cats Needing Homes section to see cats/kittens posted to Cat Chat who are looking for a home - just choose your area from the map here: http://www.catchat.org/shelter_centre/" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

or, find your local cat rescue shelters here: http://www.catchat.org/adoption" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

If there are no kittens at your local shelters at the moment, ask them to put you on their kittens waiting list. Kittens shouldn't leave mum until they are at least 8 or 9 weeks old, even better 10 – 12 weeks.

Hope that helps, best of luck!
