We are an INDOOR first cat rescue and we DON'T rehome single kittens.
Out of consideration to our very small volunteer teams it is important that you read the points below carefully before submitting an ADOPTION APPLICATION form:
-
Thoroughly read our guide for newly adopted kitties to have realistic expectations of the responsibility of owning a kitty.
-
Please familiarise yourself with our FAQs to learn more about the adoption process and our response times.
-
For kittens, we adopt in pairs of kittens and in the second instance, those who already have a young cat. Kittens homed on their own risk having behavioural issues when they grow up like bitting and scratching.
-
Young cats will be looked to be rehomed to a home with another cat.
-
Be sure that you are ready to adopt and do not apply on whim out of consideration to our very small adoptions volunteering team.
-
Think if you are ready for a commitment of looking after a kitty for many years to come (including during their senior years), cats can live 16+ years.
-
Make sure you have permission in writing on your rental or lease to have pets before applying.
-
Only submit one application, if you wish to update it, message us via Instagram, Facebook or email and let us know which kitty you like.
-
Ensure you have specified what kitties you are interested in, including your previous experience so we can get a sense of you and your home to try to find the best fit.
-
We are an indoor first rescue. Cats should be kept indoors at all times (unless you have a catio or cat proofed garden) join this group for ideas, please read our FAQs for more information. We will require all homes to be cat proofed. This applies to kittens as well.
-
Terms apply to all adoption applications. You will have to provide full paperwork and necessary proof as part of the process.
-
Please keep in mind that we will not be able to provide vaccinations at this time.
We receive a lot of applications so we won't be able to get back to everyone individually, please read our FAQs to familiarise yourself with our process.
Kitties for adoption
Please note that most ages are approximations as we don't always have the kitty's medical history. If a cat is no longer on this page it means that the kitty has been adopted or could have temporarily been removed. This page is the most up-to-date place for the cats we have up for adoption.

Luna East
2 years and 8 months / female / indoor
Luna East is an adorable, friendly, affectionate and curious little tuxedo cat girl, who likes to explore all the little nooks and corners.
Luna likes her food and is not a picky eater at all and waits politely for her meal time, sitting by her bowl.
She enjoys to play and loves chasing after balls and string toys. But she loves her naps and you can often find her lounging on her favorite spots.
She will enjoy your love and company and to cuddle up and sleep next to you. She also likes to check up on you every so often to see what you're up to. She loves her cheek and forehead scratches.
Luna would be a perfect fit for a loving and caring family with a cosy home
autumn & winter
2 years / female & male / indoor
Meet the dynamic duo, Hunter and Autumn! When this bonded pair of siblings first came to their fosterers they were very shy and just hid behind the sofa, but now they ask for head rubs and strokes and do zoomies down the hallway!
Autumn is the torbie (tortoiseshell/tabby) and the more confident one of the two. She’s quite talkative and chirrups both to her brother and to her fosterers when she wants food, but she never whines. Autumn will rub up against her foster parents’ legs, especially when they’re preparing her food. She will also take naps next to them on the sofa, and roll over to show her belly, showing how comfortable she is. Autumn greets her fosterers at the door when they get home, rolling over and meowing in excitement! She has also taught herself how to open doors in the flat, and has been known to sneak into the bedroom and sit quietly on her foster mum’s feet!
Hunter is a very handsome tabby Tom who is the quieter of the two (though less scared of strangers than his sister). Hunter is taking a more cautious approach to his fosterers, but he has developed a love of strokes and head rubs from his foster mum, on his own terms.
Both of them love to play, and when they’re not occupying themselves play-fighting, they love hairbands, springs and scratching pads. They’re both suckers for catnip. They are both food motivated but will not overeat, and they don’t fight over food.
This pair would suit a patient and understanding home to continue them on their journey, without other pets and without small children.
samantha
8 months / female / indoor or outdoor (cat proofed)
Samantha is a loving and sweet cat with an animated personality.
She loves to play and is very active with zoomies at night - she would benefit from having a protected outdoor space to play and explore or vertical space with lots of climbing shelves / trees.
She is a very independent kitty, and likes to choose when to come and cuddle up. When she does, she is very cuddly.
She is not a huge fan of being picked up and held but she might soften over time as she has been making a huge progress since in a foster home.
Due to her young age, Samantha would benefit from a home with an older brother or sister kitty.
Parker & Braveheart
5 & 6 years / male / indoor
Parker & Braveheart met in the cat pens after being rescued. Although Parker at the time was a grumpy old man, Braveheart saw right through him, and a spark was lit. They were placed in the foster home together, and having each other helped them warm up to their humans and learn how to live in the home they never had.
Braveheart, who was once terrified of people, now enjoys being petted. He will get close to you when he wants some cuddles and leave once he’s had enough. He initially grimaces when being stroked, however when he settles into it, he purrs like a motorcycle and even dribbles. He is frightened by string toys or anything attached to a stick, but he happily spends time chasing balls around the floor. If he’s not snuggling into Parker’s long silky fur, he likes to spend time perched on the window, where he can watch the world go by.
Parker has become a lot less grumpy after being diagnosed with arthritis and finally receiving monthly pain relief injections from the vet. He sometimes still hisses to remind everyone of his position in the pecking order, but he also melts when having his chin or head rubbed. When he’s in the mood for cuddles, he will come and sit in front of you and stare until he gets what he wants. He eats a special diet, since he’s lost most of his teeth, but this doesn’t stop him from enjoying wet and dry food, as well as treats (he loooves dreamies!)
Ever the unlikely couple, Parker & Braveheart can often be found cuddled together on the couch. You can witness the classic lover’s quarrels every now and then, but they always find their way back to each other.
They are looking for a family together, one that has experience with cats and can be patient as they continue on their journey of warming up to humans. Their new family will be rewarded with great company from a pair of very different, strongly bonded characters.
Jazz
9 years old / female / indoor
Jazz is a young, playful, sociable cat.
She loves being around people and having tickles on her ears, back, and belly, or being brushed all over.
She also likes chasing shoelaces, chewing raffia toys, or having a good scratch on a scratching post.
She has one of the most high pitched meows you'll ever hear, but try not to give in to her little squeaks for food every time!
Jazz has diabetes, and she's really gentle and patient when it comes to her treatment - She needs insulin injections twice a day and is very good while being injected, as long as she is given some pets and brushing afterwards.
Blood testing can be done at home, and she is docile and getting used to it.
Low grain food, mainly meat or fish would be best for her.
PAPI
7 years / male / indoor
Papi is a sweet and playful cat who has made great progress in becoming more sociable. He no longer spends all his time in his bed and will come out when called for dinner and nap around the house. He loves to play with balls and anything he can bat around on the floor. Papi is also known to be a bit mischievous and will knock over objects in the house or play with remotes or glasses, so it's best to keep important items out of his reach.
Papi is not a lap cat and not affectionate yet, but he enjoys being near his human and will smell hands/feet. He can be a bit hand shy and may hiss if he feels threatened, but he is generally calm and easygoing. He now even sits with his fosterer when she is watching TV.
Papi has had some ongoing respiratory issues and can have a weepy left eye at times. He also snores loudly, sounds congested at times and may also sneeze or cough occasionally. This is an ongoing health issue which will not go away and will need monitoring as he may require medical attention if this worsens. Despite these health issues, he has a good appetite, drinks water regularly, and uses the litter tray without any problems. He needs to be kept indoors due to his health issues.
Papi would do well in a home with a routine that includes playtime and lots of toys to keep him occupied. While he's not friendly, he may continue to become more social slowly with patience and love from his new family. He loves other cats so would love some cat company with another confident kitty.
groucho
(Assigned to adopter)
9 years and 7 months / male / indoor
This one eyed little wonder is an absolute gentleman. So sweet, gentle and polite.
He's very slow paced, low energy and relaxed so his favourite hobbies are snoozing under his favourite chair or on top of his favourite sofa.
He keeps mostly to himself and won't sit on your lap, but if you go to him and give him a stroke he'll immediately perk up and starts happily engaging with lots of nudges and purring - He'll also flop at your feet and roll onto his back for belly rubs (which he can't get enough of).
Groucho loves visitors and new people and the only thing he really hides from is the hoover!
Even being such a lay-back boy, Groucho would prefer a quiet home without kids. He will make the perfect companion for a couple or a single owner.
sarita(Assigned to adopter)
4 months / female / indoor
Sarita is an independent, playful, and adventurous kitten.
She is a beautiful tortoiseshell that looks mostly ginger on the left side of her face and shades of black on the right.
This gorgeous kitten, loves cuddles and attention and will make sure to remind you with gentle little meows if you've left her alone for a bit too long! When she's got your attention, she will enthusiastically perform her biscuit making routine - on a blanket, pillow, or even on you if the facilities aren't there!
When it comes to treats and mealtime, you will see her territorial side coming out to ensure that she gets first dibs!
Due to her tender age, she needs to go to a home with another young cat.
dave (Assigned to adopter)
2 years / male / indoor
Dave (or Bubby as nicknamed by his fosterer) is the sweetest and most affectionate cat ever.
When he arrived in his foster home, it took him a long time to settle and come out from under the sofa, but when he finally did, he really showed his personality - He loves chasing his tail, playing with his catnip fish or watching the birds outside.
Dave loves cuddles and will come snuggle on your lap whilst you’re watching tv or curl up in bed with you - He is very chilled once you gain his trust.
He is also very clever and sometimes cheeky as he can open the cupboards to get to treats.
He would probably prefer a quieter home without children and with someone who has patience until he settles.
twinkle & chase(Assigned to adopter)
5 years / female & male / indoor
Twinkle is a lovely, gentle ginger and white cat who loves cuddles.
Chase is a sweet, gentle boy with a beautiful tabby and black coat. He is very curious and likes to hide in the most unlikely places. He immediately purrs when you come and pet him.
Twinkle and Chase are very good friends, but Twinkle tries to get all the pets and sweet Chase just lets her enjoy them on her own. He's a true gentleman.
Both cats are very easy to care for. They can spend big portions of the day alone without much problem and are very clean.
While they are both very sweet and like cuddles, they do like to spend most of their time sleeping in a quiet place of the house and will come out at meal times.
Kyro(Assigned to adopter)
4 years / male / Must Have Access to Outdoor Space
Kyro is an affectionate and playful cat with a strong personality, he is looking for a special home that can provide plenty of enrichment and space to roam.
Despite the dedicated efforts of our foster team and a tailored behaviourist programme, Kyro has not fully overcome his tendency to bite (usually wrists and ankles), when frustrated or bored during his year and a half with us. Because of this, we're making a wider appeal to find an understanding adoptive family who can manage his quirks and is okay with some bites (and is up to date on tetanus shots!).
But don’t let this deter you - Kyro has so much love to give! He’s incredibly cuddly, funny, intelligent, and charming. His current foster family has even taught him to sit and high-five, and he loves curling up under a blanket on the sofa for snuggles. Especially in the morning before breakfast!
Kyro would thrive in a countryside home, stable, or farm where he can safely explore after a period of indoor adjustment (4-6 weeks) to settle into his new environment. He enjoys following his humans around, relaxing in the vicinity, and spending his days napping with bursts of energy in the evening. We are hoping that stability in a home outside of the city, where he can safely roam, will be his 4th time lucky home.
Unsuitable for a home with children but is OK with other cats with slow introductions.
Harper (black) & Arden (black&white)
(Assigned to adopter)
2 months / male / indoor
Meet Harper (black) and Arden (black & white), two sweet little brothers who are looking for their forever home. It’s impossible not to fall in love with these two little chatterboxes who love a good snuggle.
Being so small they have a lot of energy and get the zoomies. But just as quickly as they start running around they get tired and ready to nap on the sofa as they recharge after playtime.
Harper is very confident and loves to explore his surroundings. He also loves to cuddle and always asks to be picked up for belly rubs and cheek scratches. His favourite toys are anything that jiggles or has feathers, and he loves making biscuits. He’s very inquisitive and loves looking at the window.
Arden can be a little more shy at first but he starts to come out of his shell once he gets to know you better. He’s extremely affectionate and loves to stay close to people, preferably cuddling around your arms or feet. He has a loud purr, it will melt your heart! He loves chasing his own tail and chasing around his little ball.
Despite their young age both Harper and Arden have already mastered the litter box and sleep through the night peacefully.
They are still learning what they can and can’t scratch, but they are fast learners! They can be left alone for a little while and love to play with each other but they are happiest when they have someone around to play with.
dibby
(Assigned to adopter)
9 months / female / indoor
Dibby is a very affectionate kitten.
She can be shy at first, but once she gets to know you she’ll be asking for cuddles all the time!
She’s litter trained and not very vocal, but does the occasional chirps if she wants your attention.
She is very playful and enjoys to play both on her own and with her human. She tends to have a preferable toy and plays with it non-stop.
She’ll be perfect in a quiet home without small children, with a couple or one person. She would benefit as well from having a young kitty brother or sister.
She likes company, so possibly someone that can WFH a couple of times a week would be ideal.
Adopting with L.I.C.K
We will review applications on a cat by cat basis (as they are ready to be adopted), in the order that they came in and we will prioritise the best match for each kitty. Therefore, it is quite difficult to provide timelines. Please ensure you review all the points above as these will be covered in the interview.
Ensure you include a video as requested in the form to be considered.
The adoptions team will reach out for an initial interview if a potential match is found, if the interview goes well, we will put you in touch with the fosterer so you can meet the kitty. We try to make this process as speedy as we can, as we don’t want to lose potential adopters for the kitty.
After this, please let us know if you wish to adopt the kitty. We sometimes have multiple people wanting the same kitty, so we would appreciate you letting us know as soon as possible.
If everything looks OK, you will have to sign an adoption form and provide proof of insurance, cat-proofing and vet registration. We will then arrange the kitty delivery officer to bring the kitty to you and will do an in-person home check. We will change the chip ownership transfer and the kitty is officially part of your family! :) If for any reason it doesn't work out, we will take them back.
The Adoption Donation for a kitty is £100 or £170 for a pair. All donations go towards veterinary care for our kitties. All other costs are paid by fosterers, trustees and volunteers out of their own pockets.
If you are residing in a congestion zone, we kindly ask that you help pay for the congestion charge.
