We will communicate via email, so make sure to check your SPAM or 'Promotions' folder in your email for any communication from us. You will receive an email to confirm we have received your application once submitted. 

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.

Bud_edited.jpg

bud & lou

9 months / males / indoor

Bud and Lou are two affectionate siblings looking for a home together.

Bud (black male) is very affectionate, chatty, and loves attention.

Lou (Tabby male) likes cuddles too but is little more shy and can get left out because bigger Bud will push him out of the way.

They love playing with toys and to play fight a lot at present!

Due to their background they can be a bit food anxious. A steady feeding routine would be beneficial to get them confident.

They would benefit from a friendly home where there are lots of laps, playthings, and affection to spare.

stevie

9 years / male / indoor

Stevie, arrived at his foster home after being rescued from the streets after he was viciously attacked by what we think was a big animal.

 

When he arrived he was wary of his fosterers and hissed occasionally, however it was short lived as he was immediately fussed which he loved. 


Stevie needs an isolated space to settle and some time to built trust, but once he gets it he will get curious and will begin exploring the house - his confidence grew in no time.

He is very keen to be loved and is a big fan of head and chin scratches. 

He is still a young cat and has lots of personality to show but he also exhibits lots of chilled moments during the day where he likes to rest.

Stevie LOVES his food and is definitely a food motivated cat. You can guarantee if you are cooking Stevie will be right next to you watching close by.

It's important to note Stevie's wounds are still healing, but they don't seem to bother him at all and he is a very clean cat.

As a result of his injuries and extensive medical procedures, Stevie has gained a fear to go to vet, and can get very anxious when he sees the carrier. This will hopefully improve with time, with a lovely family in which he trusts.

All Stevie really needs now is to be adopted into a loving family who he can fuss and they can fuss him back.

cornetto

1 year & 2 months / female / indoor

Cornetto is a super vocal girl who loves human attention.

She is the mama of the ice-cream kittens and is now ready to thrive on her forever home on her own.

She is very protective of her babies - always meowing for them and cleaning them, which shows her affectionate personality.

She is also a purr machine and loves loafing on top of her fosterers during a nap. Affectionate and chatty, loves pets and attention!

Cornetto would suit a quiet home where she can flourish.

bobby

5 years / male / indoor

Bobby is a very shy boy at first and will hide a lot, but with enough time (and Dreamies) he’ll come out of his shell and be very purring and affectionate!

He’ll meow gently when he wants to play, or when sitting politely by his bowl asking for his food - He’s not fussy with food and likes to graze on wet and dry food throughout the day. He’ll come to you if you show him the treat bag!

Favorite toys are the feather wand, and he likes playing with noisy toys, and catnip toys, on his own.

He likes to stare out the window and sometimes watch cat TV.

He's fine by himself throughout the day while people are away.

Thought he's still not a lap cat, after he gains your trust he’ll sit next to you on his designated spot on the sofa, and headbutt you for scritches behind his ear.

He'll do well in a household that is quiet and patient so he can flourish in his forever home!

howard & leonard

5 months / males / indoor

Howard and Leonard are two adorable kittens that love each other and will be sure to love their new owner too.


They may be a bit cautious at first and will run from an outstretched hand but as soon as you're looking comfy on the sofa, they'll come running over for snuggles and compete with each other for attention.


They enjoy human company (at a distance) and love to hang out in the same room as you, often snoozing together on a bed or playing with their toys.

 

They're two gentle sweethearts and would be a wonderful addition to anyone's home.

colonel & billy jean

2 months / male & female / indoor

Colonel and Billy Jean are bonded inquisitive siblings.

 

Colonel has a full white mustache (therefore the name) and they are getting more and more confident each day - this sweet pair will come up for sniffs and pats, and they are now starting to purr and explore their house.

They are both very curious and particularly enjoy boxes and chasing balls and feathers. Everything is new and exciting to this pair.

They are also comfortable to climb up on their foster lap and lick their hands and face. They have a sweet nature.

They are looking for a home together, where they can explore and grow in confidence.

PAPI

8 years and 11 months / male / indoor

Papi can be a bit of a grumpy old man but that is part of his charm. He is doing well and is so much more relaxed than when he first arrived at his foster home - he doesn't hide anymore when there are visitors or people staying, even if they are children.

He enjoys playing with a ball and looking out of the window, watching the birds and the neighbour's cat. Most of all, he likes to sleep and has his favourite places to do so - one of them is under the sofa, and his fosterer sweetly calls him Gruffalo as all one can see are two bright yellow eyes.

Papi is a quiet cat, apart from his snoring which is very loud!

He doesn't wake you up very early for breakfast, he waits patiently until his fosterer is up. When he is hungry he sits or lays quietly next to his bowls. He is used to a feeding routine so he knows when his dinner is due.

Papi has no problem taking his medication. He has it every day with his breakfast in a chicken flavoured lick-e-lix. He loves cheese Dreamies.

He still doesn't like being touched and will hiss if you try, but he will tolerate you being next to him and will sniff your hand if you gently hold it out.

Papi would suit a quiet home where he could potter about doing his own thing.


He could probably live with a quiet and confident cat as he has no problem with the neighbouring cat

Flo

1 year and 10 months / male / indoor

Flo was a scared cat that spent the first two weeks hiding in a box not moving more than one meter. However, he has now become bolder and bolder. 

 

He loves his food and can be tempted into a few pats which he absolutely loves but only when you have treats. When food is involved he will always be close by watching you. 

 

⁠He loves to play especially if you are waving a piece of string. He has started to do zoomies in the mornings and he loves a bit of catnip to calm him down.

 

His tail had to be removed as it had been damaged while living on the street but doesn't impact him in anyway.

If you are sitting on the couch or not moving around he does like to be close by to you and is pretty curious in everything that is happening around him.

As he is still very shy, so will need someone who has a quiet home and the patience to help him come out of his shell as he still needs time to feel safe. He is always quiet at night and uses the cat litter fine.

He has come such a long way from living on the street and never having lived in a home before. He is the sweetest boy and would make an amazing companion for anyone looking for a new friend.

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 June 2024 1_edited.jpg

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.

Ronnie (Assigned to adopter)

10 years and 9 months / male / indoor or outdoors (secured)

Ronnie (aka Ally) is a lovely senior gentleman, adored by all who meet him.

This boy, loves cuddles - especially in the middle of the night. He will often sleep on top of you, so you must be happy with him visiting the bedroom.

In the day, he'll often sit near you, and will happily sit on your lap.

He LOVES food, and is guaranteed to follow you into the kitchen on every occasion.

Although sometimes a little scared by regular toys, he is very keen on a piece of string, and will play for as long or as little time as you have.

 

He is a total joy - affectionate and hilarious, but is not into loud noises. He is looking for a quiet home, where he can spend his golden years basking in the sun. He'd love a secured outside space, though not essential.

samantha
(Assigned to adopter)

11 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.

sir louis(Assigned to adopter)

13 years old /  male / indoor FIV+

Sir Louis is a very independent, curious gentleman with a soft heart.


He is not a shy cat and loves to come say hi to visitors. He's not afraid of much, but when the hoover is on, he prefers to move to the other room.


Though he is not a lap cat, Sir Louis will always be close to you, deeply asleep and occasionally asking to play with his shoe laces, which are his favourite toy ever.


He is very food motivated and because of the time he spent as a stray cat he can have some food insecurities. He needs a steady feeding routine that he gets used to so that he's not constantly begging for food .

He will like a home where he is a single cat and can rule his kingdom on his own terms.

Swiftie
(Assigned to adopter)

1 year and 7 months /  male / indoor

This playful, energetic boy is always on the move - he loves racing around the house, chasing toys, and showing off his pouncing skills. After an action-packed play session, Swiftie is ready for a well-earned nap, often finding the perfect cozy corner to recharge.

While he’s not quite a lap cat, Swiftie enjoys being close to his humans. He’s happiest when he has his own spot right next to you, where he can stretch out and relax. He’ll be your loyal companion, keeping you company while still enjoying his space.

Swiftie may need a little time to warm up, but once he does, you'll see his sweet, affectionate side. He’s the perfect mix of independent and loving. One thing to know—Swiftie doesn’t like closed doors and will let you know if he feels left out!

If you’re looking for a fun, lovable, and slightly quirky companion, Swiftie is your guy.

shiloh & sunny(Assigned to adopter)

4 months /  female & male / indoor

Shiloh and Sunny are absolute bundles of joy.

 

They are so playful and full of energy, but love their naptimes as well! They love to spend time together, playing with their toys, tumbling around or snuggling up for a doze. They are both incredibly confident and sociable, and great with new people as well as young children.

Shiloh (the black girl) is extremely curious, docile and sweet natured. She loves cuddles and is happy to be picked up gently and stroked, but is also very independent and likes to have her own space. She loves to explore things around the flat and has recently discovered the endless fun of jumping in and out of the (empty) bathtub!

Sunny (the grey boy) is very affectionate and loves to be petted and hugged. He will climb on you while you are watching TV or relaxing and sweetly ask for strokes, purring and falling asleep in your lap. He's also very inquisitive and loves to climb and expand his horizons, but he's not quite as brave as Sunny when it comes to baths!

They both have good appetites although Sunny tends to eat more and feel hungrier more often than Shiloh - and he's not shy about letting you know when he thinks it's mealtime!

 

Both are litter trained and neither have destructive habits, although it's a good idea to cover up any special furniture as they love to practice their climbing skills on whatever there is to hand!

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.
