Black Cats Homed

Simon was the last kitten of a litter of three to be homed - before he got to the "Overlooked Cats" section! He's now going to his new home thanks to Cat Chat.

Felines 1st, Crawley

These two gorgeous black cats have been homed separately via Cat Chat. Playful kitten Lucien (left) is very loving and adores attention and play, his favourite toys being the feather fishing line. Lottie (right) is calm and affectionate although she can be quite vocal. She enjoys chasing her laser pointer - a good thing as she needs the exercise, being a bit chubby (so no demand feeding!) She came into rescue from an owner who did not care about her having had many litters, so it’s great for her to have found a loving home via Cat Chat.

Cat Chat helped with finding Supermodel Sarah a new home after her owner sadly died, leaving 6 cats. Quiet and affectionate, 9 year old Sarah likes to watch the world from a high vantage point. Her status as a supermodel doesn’t inhibit her love of food!

Friendly Gemma has found a new home via Cat Chat. She loves human company and a good fuss, and is proving a delightful companion to her new family.

Eric was rehomed, we believe, as a result of his listing on CatChat. Many thanks for your help.

Shadow was rehomed via Cat Chat. He came to us with his brother Spooky after being born to a feral mum. At first the boys were very very hissy and spitty. However, after their mother was spayed and left the rescue, they came round to human ways in no time at all. Shadow was always the friendliest of the two boys and got his name from the fact he simply followed you around like a shadow.

Consett Cat Rescue, Durham

Shadow has found a lovely new home after being spotted on our Cat Chat page :-) Shadow was an eight year old neutered female. She was very timid but, with a bit of patience, she would come out of her shell (or from under the bed!) and become affectionate, curious and quite opinionated. Shadow would headbutt you if you were not petting her enough and would meow back whenever you talked to her. Her favourite things were being stroked, eating treats, and chilling out with catnip!

Whinnybank Cat Sanctuary, Newburgh

Many thanks, you have found a home for Beauty for us. She was sadly another victim of the housing crisis; her owner moved and couldn't take her with them. We are really grateful for your help.

Friends of Felines, Halstead

Beauty has found her purrrfect home through an advert the lady saw on Cat Chat website. Only two 
years old, with lovely long hair, she liked being brushed. She was looking for a home where she could be queen of the castle and spend her time with adults rather than children or other pets, with someone to tend to her every need, love her and let her shine like the diamond she was :)

Royston Animal Welfare, Barnsley

Max has been homed after being spotted on Cat Chat. He was a sweet boy looking for a forever home where he could be the centre of attention. Max believed that the best things in life are free… a cosy spot to snooze, a place to survey his kingdom, and food… brought by his humans, of course! He thrived on human company and was never far from your side.

Felines 1st, Crawley

Lovely Lucy Locket was homed after being spotted on Cat Chat. She was a beautiful girl, very friendly and loving, only two years old. She was good with children but needed to be the only pet as she wanted all the attention for herself. 

Caring Animal Rescue, Stafford

Great news, the lovely Owen was spotted on Cat Chat and has now gone to his forever home! Thank you

Ex-street cat Biggles, five, has been rehomed. We believed him to be feral, but after neutering he soon turned into a really sweet gentleman.  He was gentle and affectionate, good with other cats and has found a lovely new home to call his own at last, thanks to being spotted on Cat Chat. You do an amazing job, thank you so much.

Friends of Felines, Halstead

We homed Percy (black cat now named Cosmo) via Cat Chat, I thought you may like to see a photo of him with Mad Eddie who was the resident cat. I think that he is happy in his new home. Thank you.

Thanks to Cat Chat, Mini has been rehomed. Mini was found in a mini shortly after giving birth, she was skinny and full of fleas and worms. Despite our best efforts no owner could be found so she was brought in to the rescue for rehabilitation. Mini is a shy cat who wears her heart on her sleeve.

Thanet Cat Club, Broadstairs

We were asked to take a lovely lady cat called Becky into rescue when her elderly human sadly died. It struck us when she arrived that she was a rather large and muscular lass, but she was grieving and it had been a big upheaval for her, so we kept quiet. She cried quite a bit in the night at first and we thought she had a rather deep and loud voice, but again thought nothing of it. After a few days, she was having a wash during a snuggle session, and revealed the information that she wasn't actually Becky at all! We've renamed him ‘Beckett’ and have no idea how long he'd been passing as a lady cat. Despite the confusion, he's been a typical soft tom cat. He loves his cuddles and comes to sit on my lap the moment I sit down in his bedroom. He purrs and snuggles until I have to move. Beckett was spotted on Cat Chat and has now been rehomed.

8 Lives Cat Rescue, Sheffield

Meet Neron, an outdoor farm cat, named after the handsome new male jaguar that is a recent addition to The Big Cat Sanctuary family. Neron was looking for a home on a farm or smallholding where he could have shelter and be fed daily in return for mousing duties. He has now found the perfect home, thanks to being spotted on Cat Chat. Thank you for all of your help.

Felines 1st, Crawley

Thanks to Cat Chat we found Here For Cats and Moe. We lost our beloved Tiger Tabby to kidney disease and looking for a cat that could get on with a dog and another rescue cat, and found Moe, or Moe found us. He has settled in well and enjoying life out and about.

Kevin adopted Moe from Here for Cats, Cobham

Foxy is a two year old fluffy male. He came into the Sanctuary in a bit of a mess and had to get a good shave to remove all the matted fur. He is a loner, very territorial, and does not like the company of other cats. He loves to spend his day in the fresh air and loves being outdoors. Foxy has now been rehomed thanks to being spotted on Cat Chat!! Thanks so much, as always, for the great work you do!

Whinnybank Cat Sanctuary, Newburgh

Mabel came into us about six weeks ago and was quite aggressive, she had obviously been scrounging and having to fight for her food. We rehomed her where she surprised us by settling so well. Mabel was great with the family and dog, however she did not like the resident cat. They kept her for one month, but the cats would not stop fighting! Although Mabel was only seven months old, she was the boss and kept chasing the other cat away. She was reluctantly brought back because it was not fair on the family cat to be chased out of her own home. Mabel has now found a new home via Cat Chat, she wasn’t on the site long, and her new owners are delighted with her. Great site.

Maesteg Animal Welfare Society, Bridgend

A very special cat to us, has settled into his wonderful new home after being spotted on our Cat Chat advert. Thank you to Nicole for offering Thomas his forever home.

Thanet Cat Club, Broadstairs

I’ve just spoken to Maisie's new owner who confirmed she spotted her on Cat Chat, so thanks again for all your help. I don’t know why we had Maisie so long as she’s such a gorgeous, friendly girl and gets on with everyone, including other cats and dogs. The lady loves her already so this will be permanent for her at last. Many thanks.

Cat Action Trust 1977, Leeds

Raven is a lovely boy that was left behind by his owner when lockdown started. Instead of taking him with them, they left him to fend for himself. Neighbours had been feeding him for weeks until he came into our care. He is a very lovable boy, has gorgeous yellow eyes and a sleek black coat like a panther. Raven has just been rehomed via Cat Chat - we had so many people enquiring after him after spotting him on Cat Chat, but did not remove him until he was actually picked up by a lovely family. We have homed so many cats from your site even though there has been a lockdown, people have been patient in waiting. Thanks.

Maesteg Animal Welfare Society, Bridgend

Pleased to report that Mabel has been homed to a lovely lady after being seen on our Cat Chat page. Early reports are that she is settling in nicely! Mabel wasn’t all that happy being in rescue, and had started to show signs of stress, in the form of over-grooming on her neck and head. Hopefully that will stop now that she has a quiet home all to herself, and someone to fuss over her. Thank you for putting her on Cat Chat.

Cats in Crisis (Thanet), Margate

Lovely Flossy is on the shyer side. It took her a few days longer to settle than some other cats, but given she likes being made a fuss of, she will enjoy a lot of attention! She came to us with her five kittens, having been found in someone’s garden. All kittens were homed, and Flossy has also been rehomed thanks to being spotted on Cat Chat.

Cat & Kitten Rescue, Watford

Sookie (left) is a lovely girl who wears her heart on her sleeve, she is super nervous until she is confident in her surroundings, at which point she turns in to a cuddle monster. Nigella (right) came in to the rescue after being dumped by her owner. Nigella is what we call a horizontal cat, she is super chilled and just loves to be around people. Thanks to your lovely website both Sookie and Nigella have gone to new homes.

Sophie is a beautiful 13-year-old, outdoor, black female cat. She is affectionate and enjoys a stroke but will let you know when she’s had enough.

Victor is a big gentle cat and a real softie, craving love and cuddles. He adores being brushed and getting belly rubs, purring his head off. Victor, thought to be about 6 years old, was covered in scabs and had a nasty abscess which required an extraction.

The lovely Sam found his new start in life recently thanks to Cat Chat.

Kirkby Cats Home, Nottingham

Some amazing news, our overlooked cat Ebony has at last found new home paradise after years in the rescue. She owes this to being spotted on Cat Chat and someone who likes a challenge. Ebony was a bit on the wild side and it was thought she was destined for life as a farm cat. Her life took a bit of a different turn though when she caught flu and everyone thought she wouldn’t pull through. She was nursed up at the house and never quite made it back to the pens! However within an hour of being in her new home she's become an attention seeking fusspot and her new owner is thinking he got the wrong cat. She just didn't like the rescue. Thank you again Cat Chat!

Kirkby Cats Home, Nottingham

Tilly is a cat with cattitude. She's had trauma to her hind legs but it doesn't stop her getting around. She is very nosey and loves to see what you're doing. She is also very playful chasing after her favourite toys. She's a gorgeous cat full of character. We love her! Her new owners did mention Cat Chat in their search, so thank you all for the work you do in helping us rehome cats.

Cats In Distress, Frome

After several months in rescue 5 year old sisters Lola and Princess have found their forever home. These delightful girls are the sweetest natured cats and have gone to live in a quiet home with a lady whose two black cats had sadly passed away. It didn’t take long for Lola and Princess to settle in their new surroundings and their new mummy is so happy she has been able to give the girls the special home we were looking for. And of course we’re delighted at such a happy ending. Lola and Princess found their new home via Cat Chat.

Burton upon Stather Cat Rescue

Skye came to us a few weeks ago after her elderly human died. She was a sweet little girl but clearly upset and anxious after seeing her mum die and then all the disruption of people arriving and the house starting to be cleared. Sadly she was full of fleas when she arrived and this had taken its toll on her lovely black jacket. She was looking for a home with someone who would have a bit of patience to allow her to grieve and then begin a new life. We are delighted to let you know that Skye was spotted on Cat Chat and went to her new home yesterday.

8 Lives Cat Rescue, Sheffield

Rosie has not had much of a life, she has been bred and bred as the owner was not responsible enough to have her neutered. With a lot of persuasion we took Rosie in, as she deserved a home where she would be loved and cared for properly, to have regular meals and proper care and attention. Rosie has now been rehomed via Cat Chat. Lovely to hear in your newsletter how many more cats have been rehomed via this site, we could not do without you.

Maesteg Animal Welfare Society, Bridgend

Beautiful Jet is a young black cat with striking eyes. Jet started his life living on the streets, because of this he was very shy and quite nervous of humans. Having said that, each day he made progress and now enjoys being scratched behind the ears and a nice chin rub. Jet was homed as a result of being on overlooked cats on Cat Chat.

RSPCA Stort Valley, Harlow

Great news that Cocoa has now found a home and it is thanks to Cat Chat that he is there now. Cocoa is as sweet as his name suggests. He is loving, affectionate and an all round incredible cat. He does have a flea, mite and dust allergy which causes him to over groom. He needs to be an indoor cat and care must be taken with his food, medication and his surroundings to keep him healthy. Cocoa has been an absolute pleasure to foster and is certain to bring love and joy to his new owner.

Homeless Cat Rescue, Luton

Little black Magic came to the shelter through no fault of her own and desperately needed to find a loving home. She is 2 years old, super friendly and has been neutered. She was spotted on Cat Chat and is now going to a loving forever home all of her own. Thanks Cat Chat!

Lovely Luna is around 2 years old. Luna was looking for a loving, kind home with a garden that she could explore once she was fully settled in, and with no children. The good news is that she was spotted on Cat Chat by a local lady and has been rehomed. Lucky black cat week! Many thanks again to Cat Chat.

BabsCats, Swanley

Alfie came to us after his owner moved away and left him without a backward glance, and he was very defensive at first. This young lad deserved better, as all these beautiful animals do, a home where he will be lavished with love and affection for the rest of his life. Thankfully we are delighted to say that Alfie has been adopted after being seen on Cat Chat. Thank you Cat Chat for all your help and support.

Lancashire Paws Cat Rescue

Kiki is a stunning girl who doesn’t take kindly to other cats - her perfect home would be an adult-only, quiet household as the only pet. After all, if you are THAT beautiful, you should have your owners' attention all to yourself! She has finally been adopted thanks to Cat Chat and we hope she will be much loved in her new home and will live happily ever after.
