We've actually taken new photos and changed their names as people are often put off with cats who have been with us a long time. We've advertised them on the web, on our newsletter, posters etc, but we have to just accept that there will always be long-termers and the right owners will come along. I guess it comes with being a non-selective branch and most of our cats coming from feral trapping!

Can't believe these two are still waiting, they are lovely, I do hope you have some success before the end of the year. Might be worth doing something on their write up mentioning how long they have been with you, and how nice it would be for them to be in their own home for Christmas.

Unfortunately yes!!!
I have to say that they love their foster home, but we really do feel that Lucy would benefit from a garden and therefore are holding out for the owner!
The sad thing is that we have a mum and 6 month old kitten who are very similar to Lucy and Bruce (they can't be touched or stroked yet) and we know that they'll be this years's Lucy and Bruce! We did thoroughly assess both though and they are infinately re-homable, but just need someone who is willing to give them a chance to come round. Having said that, Bruce is an absolute sweetie and runs to the door to greet his fosterer! Lucy will now be stroked and groomed and is a sweetie - she's never swiped, bitten or hissed, she's just shy!!!!!!!

These two are exactly the new additions I am looking for. They are stunning and cannot believe they have been overlooked for so long. I guess I can understand why the long hairs get over looked. I've owned cats for about 7 years and this is the first time I've felt ready to take on a long hair.
I so wish I was in Leeds now! Why cant I find them in Northern Ireland. Seems so unfair that some of us are looking for them and they are looking for new homes and we just can't match up in the right place. I really hope they get their new home soon.

I will email you. Before I do take a cat or two on I do need to ask some questions, but with some good luck, maybe they'll have a home shortly.

Hello  Jayms_fallen_angel We would definately consider re-homing them to Sheffield and have done before when they've been special cats! My e-mail is homeacat@gmail.com if you want more info. Here are a couple of updated pics of them... Jen xxx

Yep, Poppy and Leo are this year's Lucy and Bruce! Leo is just ridiculously cute and lovely.
We'ver just taken in four semi ferals which we're working on really hard and they're coming round slowly. Here's a picture of Linus, just one of them!

See if you can work on your husband a bit  Will try to get new pics of them soon and so hopefully that might spark some interest! The awful thing is that we've just taken in another very timid mum and one kitten and I can just see the same thing happening this year with them, people overlooking them time and time again - it's so sad, but i'm glad that our branch is unselective about the cats we take in. Our re-homing might be much slower than other places, but we take the ones no-one else wants lol!

Oh I want these 2 cats , but I live in Wigan. Boo Hoo.  I have 2 cats and they are both ok (one is called Lucy as well) Wish I was closer - I even have a cat door and a small garden for them to play in. Dont think OH would be too impressed tho. They are beautiful cats.

Thats so sad. I would take them on but i think 6 cats is probably too much for me to handle.
Thats no excuse...I have 10!  | | |
