We are delighted that Simba, Raccoon and Mickey have all found wonderful adoptive homes recently thanks to their adverts on Cat Chat. We are so grateful for our platform on Cat Chat. Simba (left) was unfortunately dumped by a breeder as surplus to requirements. He was searching for an indoor-only home. He's a lovable boy, extremely gentle and loves a sofa/lap to cosy up on and to spend his days sleeping. Due to his history, Simba can suffer from some anxiety and therefore needed a patient and quiet home to allow him to feel settled, and to be with people who will give him the time he needs to relax.
Raccoon (centre) likes to explore his surroundings and is a vocal boy. Due to his previous life as a stray having to fend for himself, he can initially be a bit skittish and hide, however, once you have earned his trust and shown him kindness he craves your attention. He was searching for an indoor-only home but homes with secure catios or completely escape proof gardens were considered. This beautiful golden tabby is smart, inquisitive, playful, sometimes cheeky and a bundle of fun with a real character. When he feels safe, his confidence develops and his personality shines through.
Mickey (right) is a gorgeous old boy who likes nothing more than to lie next to you on the sofa and let you fuss him. He loves being stroked and brushed. Mickey needed a grown up family and a calm, peaceful indoor-only home, as he isn’t keen on loud noises or too much going on. If he’s unsure he will take himself off and hide himself away. He would benefit from having someone around most of the time. He is an inquisitive older soul and would be happy to live with a calm and friendly other cat. He is a lovely, affectionate boy, a joy to have around and will make the perfect companion.

Pleased to say Dexter has been homed through Cat Chat. Many thanks.He's a lovely boy who was given up due to housing problems. He has a sweet nature. He's never been outside but we think he could be introduced.
Ryedale & Scarborough Cat Welfare, Scarborough
Great news - Ercol has now got a new home thanks to being spotted on Cat Chat. Sadly his owner died and Fife Council emptied the house and shut poor Ercol out in the street. Luckily, a good Samaritan alerted the Sanctuary and asked for help. So he was looking for a new home. He'd be a bit shy to start with but he would be fine after a few days. Even though Ercol is a white cat he is not deaf. Ercol needed a garden so that, once settled into his new home, he could go outside and explore - as that's what he's used to.
Whinnybank Cat Sanctuary, Newburgh
Great news. Delilah and Joey have each found very lovely homes, both via Cat Chat. Well worth the wait in Delilah’s case as it took a while. Joey was almost immediate. As always v grateful to you all. Joey (left) is a very affectionate, friendly and gentle little boy. He would be a wonderful addition to any cat lover's home. Joey is fine with gentle children and with friendly puss cats and would like access to a safe garden. He was a very loved boy who sadly was given up for reasons beyond his previous owner's control.
And who could resist this beautiful endearing girl Delilah? She wanted a calm home as only pet with experienced adult cat lover/s (older gentle children) who could offer a safe garden and lots of love. She can be timid with strangers but is a most attentive and affectionate girl when she gets to know you. She loved to sit on her foster mum's lap and liked to chat to her. Delilah has the look of nobility and is sure to have some aristo"cats" in her heritage - Russian Blue?
Mitzi's Kitty Corner, Totnes
Little beauties Mittens & Muffin have been homed after being spotted on Cat Chat. They came into rescue along with their mum and siblings when they were less than 24 hours old. Mum had run into someone's house one rainy night and given birth in their cellar. She's been a fabulous patient mum with them and they've grown into adorable, playful, confident kittens.
Eight Lives Cat Rescue, Sheffield
Gorgeous girlies Osha and Bluebell found a new home together thanks to Cat Chat. Beautiful cheeky little Osha (left) is a typical tortie - very independent and likes to do her own thing but does enjoy human company. She's always been fiercely brave and not in the slightest bit bothered by any of the other cats even thought most of them are 2/3 times her size. Osha (right) is a lovely natured, gentle, quiet little girl but also loves to play. Bluebell can be a little shy at first but once she gets used to you she'll become your shadow. She's a typical young active cat with a very sweet and gentle nature.
Lucky Cat Rescue, Skegness
Beauties Percy & Daisy now have new homes after being spotted on our Cat Chat page. Percy (left) is a lovely friendly boy, he was only looking for a new home because his owners sadly passed away. We think he is about 8 years old but he may be as old as 10. Daisy (right) will be 9 years old in April. She is a quiet natured cat who likes her own space. She enjoys cuddles and pets once she gets use to you but does not like to be carried around. She sometimes likes to give your hand a little sniff before you pet her.
Whinnybank Cat Sanctuary, Newburgh
Yes, Cat Chat is where Roxy was spotted, we believe. Thank you again for your help. Roxy is a delighful, sweet girl, but can be shy and therefore preferred a quiet adult-only home where she'd be the only pet to be spoiled. We did think she'd benefit from being able to go outdoors but then we thought she'd be happy remaining as indoor only, or to go somewhere with a cat-proof garden.
Precious Paws Cat Rescue, York
Just letting you know that Nandor has recently been rehomed from Cramar Cat Rescue, and his new owner saw him on Cat Chat! Thank you - as usual - for all your help. Another senior cat who'd lost his beloved owner and found himself in rescue looking for a perfect retirement home, Nandor is an affectionate older gent. After being bereaved, and then losing his home as well, he wasn't at his best in rescue, spending most of the time in his igloo bed, where he felt safe. But he absolutely LOVES getting a fuss: he will lean into your hand to get maximum benefit from those ear scratches which he obviously enjoys. This gorgeous, gentle boy has so much love to give his new family. We asked that Nandor wasn't overlooked simply because of his age: he could have many more years of cuddles ahead of him. As a senior cat, he knows how the world works, he won't bring chaos or mayhem (as kittens do!), but he will bring boundless love and affection.
Cramar Cat Rescue & Sanctuary, Birmingham
Great news - Lucifer now has a new home after being spotted on our Cat Chat page! Lucifer is a one and a half year old male house cat, shy at first but when he comes out of his shell he’s very playful and loves sleeping on the bed with the adults of the home. Lucifer loves company and is good with children.
Whinnybank Cat Sanctuary, Newburgh
Six weeks ago we adopted two year old lovely Lucy (now called Lucy Rose) from Feline Rescue Luton after seeing her on your website. She is absolutely adorable and had been so well looked after in her foster home. We hope to have many happy years together. We are so grateful you posted her details. Thank you.
Pat and Feline Rescue, Luton
Dear Cat Chat, we just wanted to let you know that 15 month old Leo was homed after the adopter saw him on our Cat Chat page. Thank yout! Though he was initially shy and reserved, Leo has blossomed into a loving, curious, and playful companion. He’ll melt your heart with his favourite pastimes - chasing the laser pointer, pouncing on his beloved shoelace toy, and curling up for cuddles on the sofa. Leo thrives in a calm, quiet environments where he can feel safe and secure.
Hounslow Animal Welfare Society, West London
Cookie has been homed thanks to Cat Chat… thank you! Pretty Cookie is approx four years old, a very loving and gentle little girl who likes being cuddled whilst on your lap. She enjoys wandering around the garden or just sitting and watching the day go by.
Caring Animal Rescue, Stafford
Beautiful Esther has now gone to her new home, thanks to your help and support! She’s a 15 year old brindle tortie lass, her age has not brought her any health issues but she’s enjoying life in the slow lane now; with good company, good food and a good snooze.
Feline Friends Rescue, Lincoln
Lovely Hector has now been homed thanks to Cat Chat! Hector is a very sweet, chatty Birman boy aged one. Extremely loving and beyond cute!
Strawberry Persian Cat Rescue, Malvern
These cats were definitely rehomed as a result of appearing on Cat Chat - thanks. Ginger Jim was a poor lost boy rescued with an appalling collar injury. He made a brilliant recovery. He's a gentle lad who loves being with his one special human for comfort and cuddles. His other interests are listening to calming musc, squirrel and cat watching from a window and Dreamies.
Bella Mamma (black) was no more than a kitten herself,a sweet and loving girl. She loves a fuss and was fast becoming a snuggly little lapcat. When she's not keeping your lap warm, she's watching what you're doing in the kitchen or lying by your side, watching TV. She has the quietest little meow - more of a squeak. She is such a gentle soul who'd be a loyal companion once settled with her new person. We couldn't separate Mamma from her baby Sunshine - they are a beautiful bonded duo. Little Miss Sunshine (tortie) is a confident playful little kitten. Mum and baby were looking for an adult home with a cat-confident family.
Save A Stray, Sheffield
Great news - ex-stray five year old Bruce has a new home after being spotted on our Cat Chat page! Bruce had been a stray for a while. He wooed the Newburgh Vets by being friendly and charming. Bruce loves being patted and will happily let you pick him up and sit next to you for a cuddle. He is pleasantly chatty without being a nag. Has a deep purr and drools a bit when he decides you are his new chum.
Whinnybank Cat Sanctuary, Newburgh
Lovely Tilly has been rehomed via Cat Chat and has settled into her home. Tilly’s ex-owner bred her several times, sold her kits, kept one eventually then kicked them out. Despite a neighbour asking about the cats, he was told they weren't wanted anymore. He kept feeding them as long as he could but having several cats himself could not afford more. She is a small cat, very much a loner, very quiet.
Maesteg Animal Welfare Society, Bridgend
Cuties Munchkins & Poppet have been homed after being spotted on Cat Chat. They are brother and sister approx 9 -12 months old who were born to a stray mum. They came into our rescue as terrified little cats, but both just blossomed with human interaction from our team of cat cuddlers. Munchkins likes to hold a paw out to ‘shake hands' when he has a visitor, especially if the visitor has a bag of treats!
Rescue Remedies Cat Rescue, Horley
Just to let you know beautiful six-year-old Minx has been rehomed via Cat Chat. She wasn’t with us for long she was so friendly. She’s travelled a long way. She originally was owned by a person in Shropshire, but this person rehomed her to another owner because she was suffering from bad health. However, this person could not remember who Minx was rehomed to and her chip was never updated! She was found in a lorry park on an industrial estate in South Wales. She was trying to get into the office. All we can think is she hitched a ride on a lorry to get so far from home. The lorry driver took her to our local vet, who in turn contacted the original owner. She felt she could not have her back so she was put up for rehoming by us. She is a character, full of fun, quite a chunky lady and exceptionally friendly.

We are over the moon that Boston has now found his forever home! He had not had a great life as he had been living on the streets. He needed a special home and we thought he had one but his first new home fell through. He was then spotted on Cat Chat, most likely on the Overlooked listing. We are so happy that 2 year old Boston has landed on his paws at last! We needed an experienced person for him: having been a street cat and very timid he needed someone who could understand him as he would be very frightened when he first went to his new home. Once Boston gets used to you, he's a loving cat. He needed a room on his own to start off with, then he could be slowly introduced to the other rooms. He will need a garden, once fully settled.
Whinnybank Cat Sanctuary, Newburgh
Just wanted to let you know that we rehomed Hanson and Smiler this weekend thanks to Cat Chat. Thanks for assisting us in finding them both wonderful homes. Hanson (left) needs a bit of time to get used to a new environment, but once he does, he's an absolute sweetheart. He is happy to be a foot warmer or just fall asleep next to you on the sofa with his paws in the air, if he's not being a purr factory. Favourite toy: catnip mouse with a feather tail.
Smiler (right) is going to make a lovely companion and give a lot of love! She's still very kitten-ish and purrs easily. She needed a quiet home with patient people to help her gain confidence. She loves attention but has had some trauma which means she gets scared if you move too fast. She was found living in a garden inside an abandoned sofa along with her kittens. She’s great with other cats.
Cat Supporters South Wales, Cardiff
Callie & Ellie have been rehomed thanks to Cat Chat. A housing crisis had forced the family to part with their much-loved puss cats. They had made arrangements for the care of Callie and Ellie but were let down. Callie and Ellie are very affectionate. They love the company of people, gentle children and have lived happily with a friendly dog and another cat. They prefer domestic life - would like to be able to pop out into a safe garden but don't wander far.
Mitzi’s Kitty Corner, Totnes
Handsome Cupid’s got an amazing home after being spotted on your page. We were alerted to Cupid just before Christmas when we had a call about an injured cat that had turned up at a bungalow, close to an established cat colony. Poor Cupid had an injury to his ear and a bite to his leg; sadly, this often will happen to an unneutered male as they will fight over food and the ladies.
CAFO Rescue, Crewe
Robbie was homed because he was seen on Cat Chat by his fantastic new owners. We are so delighted by this as the couple who spotted him are just perfect for this dear boy and love him so much already. Robbie had been living outside, though it is not known for how long, before he became an LP cat. He could, at the time, be described as completely wild and had needed to be trapped. He is a 'sturdy' boy and is an absolute joy; we wish him a very long and happy, healthy life which is richly deserved.
Lancashire Paws Cat Rescue, Bolton
Guess what? Sociable ten month old black kitten Dynamo finally found his forever home! They spotted him on our Cat Chat page, and we thought it might take him a few days to adjust to his new surroundings. But boy, was he ready for some love and attention! Just a couple of hours after he arrived, he was already demanding cuddles from the girls in his new family.
Aylesbury Cat Rescue
Billy, Poppy and 14 year old Tiger have found lovely homes after being spotted on Cat Chat. Billy (left) had found refuge with an elderly gentleman after he turned up at his house. We don't know where he came from, whether his owner died, lost his way or just abandoned. He is a talker and a very good hunter. The vet aged him about 6 yrs old. He is friendly but doesn't like to be over fussed. Poppy (middle) is a lovely 5 year old cat that was left behind in rented accommodation. How can people be so cruel? She loves people, food and loves to be cuddled. As you can see from this photograph, Tiger (right) is so frightened. Not nasty in any way, just pure fright. She has recently come into us because her owner has died. She is fit and healthy, a very large cat so will need a large lap to sit on. We suggested keeping her as a house cat because she is so nervous.

After being spotted on our Cat Chat page, Amber has finally got her forever home. Thanks for your help. She's a 1yr old stunning white & tortoiseshell girl who was abandoned and heavily pregnant. She found a lady who would feed the feral colony every night, so she made sure to be around for the food & it was quickly discovered that she was not feral. She looked ready to pop so went into the rescue. Three weeks later she gave birth to 4 kittens, only a kitten herself, but she made a great mum. Now she's started her new life being thoroughly spoilt with her lovely new family.
Aylesbury Cat Rescue
Fabulous news: Patch has been rehomed after being spotted on Cat Chat (together with Toothless and Cash). Beautiful tabby Patch, seven, only has one eye, believed to be related to complications from cat flu. She came in from a farm where there were over 50 cats, all unneutered.
Freedom Furrever, Stoke
Great news: both Jasper and Tabitha have recently found their new homes through Cat Chat - thank you! Stunning Tabitha (right) is a gorgeous long-haired tortoiseshell tabby who doesn't seem to need a lot of grooming. She is very friendly, loves attention and to sit with you. She doesn't get on with some cats but seems to be OK with other older ones that don't bother her. She has lived with dogs and has grown up with young children although as she's older now, older children would suit her better.
Jasper is a lovely, super-friendly, affectionate white-with-dark-grey-markings boy. He's a cheeky, nosey lad who wants to know everything that's going on; he wants to lie on your bed and be with you. Jasper loves other cats but he does want to be the dominant male in the house, although he won't pick a fight. He's good with children, preferably older children. He is - quite frankly - well-padded: plump! The vet wanted him to lose a bit of weight so Jasper was on a low-carbohydrate, high-protein/fat diet to give him a good start before he was adopted.
Feline Network Cat Rescue, Paignton
We are very pleased and grateful that Fluffy did find her forever home on Cat Chat. Black beauty Fluffy, approx. 5, came into the rescue heavily pregnant and in desperate need of somewhere safe and quiet to have her kittens. This petite princess did a great job of getting her kittens through their first 12 weeks but then it was time for her to have a well-earned rest and soak up all the love and attention herself. She loves affection and is the perfect companion. Fluffy is an indoor cat and therefore required an adoptive home able to commit to keeping her safely indoors, although she'd be OK in a secure catio or fail-safe pet-protected gardens. Fluffy needed a quiet home with no young children and with someone around regularly. We thought she would prefer to be an only cat but could possibly live with another placid and submissive cat.
Alma and Makko`s Furry Friends, Biggleswade
Beautiful nine-year-old Missy was rehomed via Cat Chat. She is a very sweet, gentle girl, who can be a little stand-offish when she first meets new people, but when she gets to know you she loves a fuss. Missy loves to be out in the fresh air.
Jack’s Cat Rescue, Louth
We thought you would like to know that Oscar, Ollie and Ziggy have all been adopted this week to wonderful new homes. Ollie and Ziggy have been homed together in a rural location. Oscar has joined some furry friends in a home in the countryside. It’s been well worth the long wait for these special boys. All homed through Cat Chat. Thank you for all your help.
Burton upon Stather Cat Rescue, Scunthorpe
Beautiful natured Polka Dot just wants lots of love and attention. She is a very gentle soul and is waiting for a lap to snuggle on. She has just been rehomed from a Cat Chat enquiry.
Betley Cat Rescue, Crewe
Layla, our beautiful three legged black cat, now has a wonderful new home, and all thanks to being seen on your Overlooked Cats section! Her new owners are lovely people who not only love black cats but were specifically wanting to take on a cat that others may not consider. They live in a sheltered housing complex which has recently relaxed their no-pets rule and now allows cats as long as they're indoor pets. This is ideal for Layla because losing a front leg after being shot by a moron with an air rifle puts her at a disadvantage outdoors and she's adapted so well to an indoor lifestyle in her months spent with us. So many, many thanks to you all at Cat Chat, what you're doing is brilliant and a very welcome resource for us rescues. Thank you!
Cat Welfare Wisbech
Beautiful Jasmine, an 11 month old lass who was left at a vet practice, has been spotted on our Cat Chat Homing Page and is now in her forever home.
Caring Animal Rescue, Sheffield
I believe Woodie and Jessie were seen on Cat Chat. Thank you. Woodie (left) and sister Jessie came into rescue when their owner had to go into care. They can be shy upon first meeting people, especially given new surroundings. They were looking for an indoor home where they could be the king and queen of the castle; they aren't used to other cats or dogs. They were also looking for a home with no young children; Jessie, especially, likes to do her own thing and while Woodie is more confident, he too quite likes the quiet life.
Royston Animal Welfare, Barnsley
I believe King was rehomed through your page, yey!! He is very large, very fluffy, and all black, one of several cats we helped from a local street where cats had been left un-neutered and allowed to breed unchecked. He had definitely lived in a home before, he is good-natured and confident around people and was also living peaceably with his brother in rescue. He seems happy to be groomed and will give gentle kisses too.
