Meet Tayto! Tayto was a stray who chose someone’s house to have her babies in (whom have all been named after Tayto flavours). Tayto has been out on foster with her kittens while they grow up. She has enjoyed being in the home, with lots of space and some doggy friends. While out on foster, Tayto had some health issues. She is on the mend, but after blood tests were done it was found that Tayto is FIV+. FIV isn’t a death sentence- it just means she is immunocompromised. It also means that she will need to be kept as a strict housecat with no outdoor access. This is something she will be more than happy with, as she loves to sprawl out on the sofa, or watch the world go past outside the window. Tayto would be best suited to a home with older children, and could live with a cat-savvy dog. She is a very friendly girl, but she can be a slow burner when it comes to bonding with her person. She took a while to come around to the fosterer- but this could also be because she is having to put must of her energy into raising her chaotic little kittens! Once she is settled in and doesn’t have to think of her kittens anymore, she should show her true personality! If you think you could offer Tayto a home, please get in touch.
Beautiful kitten Katie, is looking for her forever home. She is 16 weeks, very friendly and well handled. Katie is fully vaccinated and we have a neutering scheme in place for when she is old enough.
Beautiful Pixie is a 12 week old kitten who is ready to go to her forever home. She is one of the most affectionate, playful and personable little kittens, despite going through so much so early in her life. Pixie arrived as a stray with severely ulcerated eyes. Her right eye was surgically removed immediately and we have been working on preserving the left eye. That eye still has blemishes on the cornea but she still has sight in it so we want to keep preserving it for now. This eye may require further attention in the future, in which case we will support with any vetwork. Pixie’s future owner will need to apply daily eye ointment to that eye to continue to help it to heal. Pixie is a real superstar and doesn’t make a fuss at all when you apply her meds, she uses it as a good excuse for a cuddle! An indoor home with safe outdoor catio access would be ideal. A home with children and other pets should be fine as long as introductions are done slowly and with supervision. If you are interested in adopting Pixie, please visit www.westcorkanimals.com and fill in the questionnaire in the Adoption section.
Rose is a very young but a model cat mum. She is an exceptionately gentle cat and has the patience of a saint with her kittens. She loves human company although she’s not a fan of being picked up. She accepts it for a few seconds then gently tries to get down. She loves being petted and when we sit down ,she either jumps on our lap or sits beside us and pokes us with her paw or nose to pet her. I It would be amazing if she was chosen with Conker by someone who is looking to adopt a pair as they are devoted to each other.
Eloise Meet Eloise our beautiful tortie girl. Eloise arrived into our care back in May as part of a very special little family, alongside her mummy Lila, daddy Jack, brother Elroy, sister Ellie and their auntie. Now around 18–20 weeks old, she is waiting patiently for her forever family to find her. Eloise has a sweet and gentle nature and is a lovely little character once she gets to know you. She can be a little nervous around unfamiliar people and in new environments, but once she’s comfortable and settled, her confidence really shines through. She loves all the fun that comes with being a kitten, especially her toys, cat tree and catnip, and she adores curling up with her siblings when it’s time to relax. There’s nothing quite as sweet as finding Eloise, Ellie and Elroy all snuggled up together after a busy day of playing. And of course, Eloise wouldn’t be a tortie without a little tortitude! She has plenty of personality and is sure to keep her forever family entertained as she continues to grow. She’s also a big foodie and is always very excited when breakfast or dinner arrives. Eloise and her family have perfected their little food-time chorus, so you’ll certainly know when they think their dinner is late! Having grown up alongside her family, Eloise would thrive best in a home with one of her siblings or another family member, or alongside another young, playful and friendly kitten or cat. Eloise is ready for a family who will give her the chance to settle in, get comfortable and let her lovely personality blossom even further
Clooney STRICTLY INDOOR ONLY Meet Clooney our gorgeous silver boy. Clooney arrived as one of the big 62 intake. Clooney is an absolute lovable soul with such a wonderful nature. He’s a very gentle, settled and playful boy who really does bring all the traits you could hope for in a feline companion. Clooney is just as happy curling up somewhere comfy and cosy, enjoying some gentle pets and a good fuss, as he is getting involved in some fun! He loves to play, chase his toys and, even better, have a good play with his feline friends. He has a lovely balance between enjoying his relaxation time and showing off his playful side. And when it comes to food… well, Clooney is definitely a foodie! He gets very excited when he hears that breakfast or dinner is on its way, and he’ll make sure you know just how excited he is about it! This handsome big lad has so much to offer and would make an amazing companion for someone or a family. He’s gentle, affectionate, playful and simply a lovely boy to have around. Given the circumstances Clooney came from, we feel he would thrive best if rehomed with one of his friends from the rescue, or into a home with another friendly, playful cat who can keep him company and enjoy some fun with him. Now we just need to find the family who will give this big, beautiful, lovable boy the forever home he deserves.
Stacey and Hetti Last summer, Hetti arrived with her five kittens and was already pregnant again. She went on to have another litter here at the rescue, and her kittens, having grown up around people, were soon chosen by their forever families. But Stacey’s story was a little different. Stacey grew up outside with her mummy and the four siblings she arrived with, and was always a little more nervous around people than the others. Her siblings were soon chosen by their forever families, but Stacey was the last one left waiting alongside her mummy. Now, over a year later, she and Hetti are still waiting for someone to see just how special they are. Stacey is inquisitive but apprehensive and needs time to feel comfortable around people. Hetti is much more independent and isn’t a girl who seeks out lots of fuss. What they do have is each other, and their bond is incredibly special. They love playing together, curling up together and simply enjoying each other’s company. They also love the simple things, their cat tree, catnip and, of course, their favourite chicken and tuna treats! These girls are looking for a quiet, patient and understanding home where they can take their time, have their own space and simply be themselves. Most importantly, they need a family who will love them for who they are and give them the chance to feel safe and truly at home. Love doesn’t always look like a cat sitting on your lap or asking to be stroked. Stacey and Hetti deserve a family who understands that and will love them exactly as they are. They have never had a family of their own, and we would love for that to finally change. They deserve to know what it feels like to have a home, feel safe and truly belong. Our girls must be rehomed together to a strictly indoor-only home. Could you be the family Stacey and Hetti have been waiting over a year for?
Bottom- Yen (Left) Florin (Right) *Update – Florin, Yen & Lira has now been rehomed* All 3 Months This group of kittens are a cheeky bunch! They love playing and hiding in their tunnels. Lira and Florin are getting more confident and affectionate, whereas Yen and Stirling are quite shy but get confidence from their siblings. They will need some time and patience in order for them to fully come round, so they would be best suited to a quiet and calm household. We are unsure what they would be like around other cats and dogs.
