Toffee
Toffee is a 6 year old tortoiseshell female who likes a quiet life. Her dream afternoon would be to curl up on the sofa with her person and watch a classic Hollywood weepie (Bette Davis is her favourite) preferably one that has ad breaks so that she could benefit from any nibbles that might come out of the fridge in those precious four minutes.

However, these indulgences can and do take their toll on the figure and our Toffee could do with fewer sofa snacks and more playing in the garden and running up and down stairs.
This is Toffee’s second stay in Battersea; she originally came to us in 2002 because her owner had had a baby, and is now back because of allergies. We would hope that her next home will be for keeps.
Toffee is looking for a calm, mature, adult home with one or two people who will be strong and unyielding when it comes to treats. She can be a touch temperamental at times, so she needs to live with people who know when their cat has had enough attention and will leave herbe at those times. She should have access to a garden once settled and preferably to some stairs to help her lose weight. She should be the only pet in her new home.
If you think that you can offer Toffee a permanent home, please contact the rehoming team at Old Windsor on 01784 494443, apply online or email bow.rehomers@dogshome.org.

Ziggy
Ziggy is a 3-5 year old white with tabby patches and tail female. She is a friendly , confident, independent and playful girl. She will do well in a home with no other cats or dogs. Settles well when given her own space so may be better if given her own room at 1st to help her settle.

Ziggy is looking for an experienced new home in a semi-rural environment (low cat population area). She would prefer an active home, but quiet household with a single or multi-carer household.
She could be left during the working day and can live with children 13 years + that will encourage toy play (not finger play). New owners will also need to remember that as a white cat, she will need sunblock on ears in the summer.
If you can offer Ziggy a home please contact Battersea Dogs and Cats Home Brands Hatch on 01474 875103 and ask of a member of the Cattery staff.

Egg and Nellie
Egg and Nellie are two black and white 2 year old siblings who were brought to Battersea as their elderly owner went in to hospital leaving the cats with nobody to care for them, we do not have much history on them as a friend brought the cats in to us.

Sadly Egg and Nellie are nervous and under-socialised, they are finding cattery life very frightening and confusing taking time to settle and trust people. Slowly with patience they are both coming out of their shells and proving to be sweet cats.
Ideally we are looking for experienced rescue cat owners or people that have owned nervous cats before so will understand exactly what they are going home with. Unfortunately Egg and Nellie cannot live with children or other pets, they need a quiet environment where they will receive the time and attention they need.
Egg and Nellie are used to having access to a garden but due to their nervous natures they did not stay outside for long. It is advisable that they stay indoors longer than your average new cat to allow them plenty of time to settle and bond before going outdoors, new owners must be prepared for this.
If you are looking for a rewarding challenge then this beautiful duo could be for you, to find out more please contact the rehoming team at Old Windsor on 01784 494443, apply online or email bow.rehomers@dogshome.org.

Beau
Beau is a 12 year old tabby male. He is a friendly and sociable, older boy, who came into the home as a gift, due to his owners travelling. He is outgoing and friendly, he only prefers adult company, and is happy to be fussed and groomed, at his age if he has too much attention he may tell you off, but his behaviour has been fantastic whilst he has been here with us.

Beau is ready for his new home and will require a quiet Household, he would be ideal for a less active home, semi-rural environment, even though he is older he still enjoys going outside. He would suit someone who has had cats before, but nothing problematic. Beau could be left a working day. He is looking for an adult only household as the only pet.
Anyone interested in rehoming Beau can contact Battersea Cats and Dogs home Brands Hatch on 01474 875 103 and ask for one of the cattery staff.

Lucy
Lucy is a 10 year old tabby female who first came to Battersea in 2001 as a stray, she was quickly rehomed but has sadly been returned as her owner has moved to a property where no pets are allowed. Lucy is used to living with an elderly single owner in a quiet home so is finding cattery life very stressful and worrying.

In her previous home Lucy was not social or friendly with visitors and only interacted well with her owner so you will not see her true nature while at Battersea or initially in a new home. Lucy is looking for a quiet home with no children or other pets, she needs routine and space when needed.
Lucy will need patience and understanding as she will take time to trust new people and bond, owners must not expect too much too soon from her, she is very much her own boss and prefers interaction on her terms. In her previous home Lucy used a catflap and didn’t spend much time away from the house.

Jackson
Jackson is a 2-3 year old black and white male. We thought Jackson might like to pal up with his neighbour, Humphrey seeing as they have been taking it in turns to use their shared yard for the past few weeks, but after a few promising sniffs, they had a proper Boy Fight, so that was the end of that idea.

Jackson is FIV positive and will need to go to an indoor home, but as he is a young cat in the prime of life, we would particularly like him to have as much space as possible. Brought in as a stray, he is used to being outside, so a roof terrace or enclosed courtyard would be ideal for him.
Another option would be for him to have the run of a house that is too close for comfort to a dangerous road. He is a young cat, so a couple of teenage children in the home to help keep him entertained would be a good idea.

Ivan
Ivan is a 1-2 year old black and white male, he may not be the luckiest cat in the world, having already suffered a series of mishaps in his short life, but he is certainly one of the loveliest. He is a sweet-natured, gentle boy who understandably has a slightly wary edge and he gets anxious when there is a lot of noise and movement around him.

Once he is confident with his new people he will make a charming and amusing companion. Ivan needs to live in a fairly calm, slow-moving kind of home, although he could live with one or two children aged 10 years +. He must have access to a secure garden once settled.
