Cat adoption in Cheltenham and Tewkesbury

Could you provide a loving new home for a cat in Cheltenham and Tewkesbury? During the process of adopting a cat from us, we’ll consider everything from your potential pet’s personality and how this fits with your lifestyle, to your home environment – creating the perfect match for both cat and owner and the start of a wonderful feline friendship.

The cost of adopting a cat is £90
The cost of adopting a kitten is £110 *
(* this cost relates to adopting a kitten under the age of 6 months)

When you telephone us on 0345 371 2730 your call will be answered by an independent messaging company who will take your details.

For your information:  we do not have a central Rescue Centre - our welfare facilities consist of dedicated volunteer fosterers, in and around the Cheltenham and Tewkesbury area, caring for cats either in their own home or in specially designed pens in their garden - they spend considerable time making sure the cats are ready for adoption and their new forever homes. 

ALSO, CHECK OUT OUR FACEBOOK PAGE ABOUT CATS THAT ARE READY FOR ADOPTION.  THANK YOU.
