FOSTER CARE - These cats are in need of a temporary foster home whilst we prepare them for adoption. To read more about our Foster Program and to submit an application to get involved as a Foster Carer please click here.
ADOPT - These cats are in need of a new family. Adopting a 4 Paws cat enables you to be fully responsible for their care when they join your family. To read more about our Adoption process and to submit an Adoption Enquiry to be considered as their new owner please click here.

Mr Pickles - PERMANENT CARE
We are seeking a Permanent Carer for Mr Pickles.
He's a 5 year old boy who recently arrived into our care after his owner sadly passed away.
He's a beautiful, gentle natured boy who is very affectionate, loving and very fond of human company.
He'll make a wonderful companion for someone looking for a sweet cat to share their home.
Mr Pickles has tested positive for both FIV and FeLV (Feline Leukaemia Virus). Neither of these conditions can be transmitted to people or dogs.
It does mean that Mr Pickles needs to live a strictly indoor life and be placed in an only cat home.

What we need from a special person is a safe, loving home and someone willing to give this gorgeous gent the life he deserves.
Mr Pickles may come with a couple of medical labels, but they don't define him. He has so much love to give and just needs someone to give him that second chance.

Tina - ADOPT
Tina is a striking 7 year old lady looking for a very special person to give her the time and understanding that she needs.
Tina came to us quite traumatised and very frightened, unsure of the world around her.
She's made great
progress with one of our experienced foster carers since then, yet she is still on anxiety medication and will need to remain on it for some time.
Thankfully, she takes it in her food without any problems.
What Tina needs most is a very quiet, calm home with someone patient enough to let her find her feet in her own time.
She must be allowed to set the pace without any pressure or expectations.
Just a safe space and a kind, gentle human who will let the trust build naturally. Once you have her trust, you'll see her affectionate side emerge and may just find her curled up happily on your lap.
Tina needs a home without children or other pets and will be placed initially on a "Foster view to Adopt" basis, giving her the opportunity to settle gradually while everyone gets to know one another. You will be provided with full support from our volunteer team during this time.
She's a lovely cat needing a second chance and for the right person, we believe she'll be a loyal and loving companion.

Lilly - ADOPT
Lilly is a very sweet 9 year old lady who has recently come into our care from the pound.
Her world has changed very suddenly after a family member developed allergies.
As you can imagine, she's finding the change a little confronting right now.

She's understandably feeling timid while she adjusts to her new surroundings.
Beneath those cautious eyes though is a loving cat who just wants to feel safe again.
The good news is Lilly has had a full health check with our vet and received a big tick of approval.
She's desexed, microchipped, wormed and ready to start her next chapter.
We'd love to see Lilly settled into a quiet, loving home with a patient owner who can give her the time and reassurance she needs to blossom and find her confidence again.
She'd be best suited as an only cat where she can soak up your love and attention for herself. Lilly is untested with dogs.
Lilly just needs a second chance and we're confident she'll make a beautiful companion for a lucky owner.
