Cats and kittens up for adoption 

Looking for a forever home: February 2012

These lovely little cats are looking for a forever home together.

They are brothers, both 2 and a half years old, both neutered and litter trained (though they generally prefer to go outside).
Chico is quite independent and knows what he wants, he loves being outside, he is not a bit shy, loves his food and he is very affectionate. Cali is shyer with strangers but is the biggest pet of the two, preferring to be indoors most of the time. He is still very playful like a kitten, loves attention and games, Cali has had a metal pin in his leg for over a year now since he broke it quite badly but it doesn't bother him at all now. I would love to home them together as they have always been together and get on very well, they always cuddle up together when they sleep.

If you can offer a good home to these cats please contact 086 8814 294. Cork City.
 

 

Looking for a forever home: February 2012

This lovely little cat is looking for a forever home.

This gorgeous little cat is looking for a loving home. She is about three years old and is litter trained. She was probably abandoned by her owner/s and has lived for a while on a very busy street, sheltering under parked cars. These events have given her trust in people a little knock but she is still friendly, just a little cautious. She is very gentle and quiet. It seems she was looked after and treated well before her abandonment. She probably has been spayed as anytime over the past nine to ten months she never showed signs that she had had kittens.

If you can offer a good home to this cat
please contact 086 370 9915. Cork City - Southside.

 

Looking for a forever home: january 2012

This lovely little cat is looking for a forever home. He is maybe 2 years old. He has been indoors and seems reluctant to go into the back yard. He is quite timid with people but very loving. He uses the litter box and seems to have been neutered. he gets on well other dogs and cats.

 CONTACT Lyndsey at 086 4059729 if interested in adopting him.

While Cat Action Trust makes a substantial effort to ensure that the cats and kittens are in good health. It is possible that undetectable conditions may be present therefore we cannot make an absolute guarantee as to perfect health of each cat and kitten. Of those cats that have a condition of which we have veterinary diagnosis you will be told.
All kittens and cats have to be given indoor accommodation especially after dark.
One other condition is that any kittens which are not neutered when they are adopted have to be neutered when they reach the appropriate age. As with everything these days ring various vets to get a price for this procedure and if you need advise please contact us.
All kittens/cats adopted directly from CAT come with  and come with an adoption form and vaccination cert., where applicable. The adoption form acts as a record of the adoption.

All Cat Action Trust cats and kittens are marked with * * * * *
The remaining cats and kittens up for adoption, ( without * * * * ) are other peoples' cats and kittens that need homes. When you do adopt these, please keep all contact details to hand in case you need to revisit the adoption. These people are not with CCAT but we are happy to place their requests for homes on our adoption page.
While we do not charge for adopting a cat or kitten we do ask for a donation.
For example if a kitten or cat has been vaccinated and or neutered we do ask in order to
cover the veterinary costs as without funding we will not be able to continue.
Likewise if a kitten has not been vaccinated or neutered when adopted we do ask for a small donation so that we can rescue another cat or kitten.

Ten things Your Cat would want you to remember

Semi Feral Cat Adoption

SEMI-FERAL CATS: These kittens and cats are not displayed on this page at present.
Some cats that we receive are just not as tame as those that have been socialized as kittens. This means that they are not lap cats but still can be very grateful to anyone who wishes to give them a safe and loving home or farm for example.
These cats are just quiet and shy and need a more secure household with which to live. 
If you could give a place to cats that are semi feral then we would be happy to talk to you. 
These cats are special.
They require a secure place where they are loved, fed and cared for and are suited to an outside life with a safe place to sleep at night. 
In fact a number of these cats have been settled into life in work places and farmyards where they have freedom and also get fed properly and are warm and secure. 
They are very happy to repay by hunting mice and rats and as one knows a well cared for and well fed cat is a great hunter.
Two major requirements are that the cats are fed proper cat food and that when they first arrive they are kept in a secure shed barn or room for a minimum of a month or three weeks or so as they have to get used to their new place and new people.
