| Adopt a Cat |
|
We have many beautiful cats of all ages and backgrounds waiting for a home of their very own. Can you find room for one in your home? |
We are a small charity based in the Reading, Maidenhead and Henley on Thames areas. We aim to rehome our cats and kittens within approximately a 20 mile radius of Henley. |
Kittens (Please read our article : Adopting Kittens) We do not have any young kittens at the moment. It is most unusual to have kittens during the winter as very few are born at this time of year. We sometimes have 5 to 6 month old kittens so please ring for details. |

We have a lot of cats in our care at the moment which are not yet ready to be rehomed. Below are listed some of the cats which are now ready for rehoming. If you do not see what you are looking for please phone us as the situation is always changing as more cats are taken into care.
Trixie and Tess - a pair of 6 year tabby females who we think are sisters. They had had a very hard life until they came into our care, having been made to live outside in all weathers, with no shelter. We had been told that they were feral cats which needed a home on a farm but in fact they are lovely, friendly cats. If you want to "rescue" a couple of cats then these may be the ones for you! Lily and Jet - are probably mother and son. Lily is about 3 years old, a beautiful, petite, longhaired grey female while Jet is a longhaired black boy, about 2 years old who loves nothing better than to head butt you. These cats had been abandoned by their owner and had been living outdoors before they came into our care. We believe that they have lived with young children. 
Spike - is a very friendly tabby male, about 7/8 years old, with a fluffy coat. He is very affectionate and would make a very good companion. Memphis and Tallulah - came into our care because of an allergy in the family. Memphis is tabby and white, 6 years old and quite a big chap while Tallulah is a petite grey and cream female aged 5. They look like a bit of an odd couple but they are very much a pair and need a home together. As neither cat had been neutered by their owner they were both bloodtested for FIV/FeLV before being neutered. They are lovely, friendly cats. 
Leo and Bella - were found abandoned in the garden of a pub in Oxfordshire just before Christmas. We think that they had been outside in the freezing cold and deep snow for some time before they were found as they were very weak. The owners of the pub fed them and gave them shelter in an outbuilding before calling TVAW. Leo is a lovely ginger boy while Bella is a dark tortoiseshell female. We think that they are about 2 years old. Although they were very nervous at first they have settled down now in their fosterhome and are very affectionate. They are both neutered.
Phoenix - is a lively, black and white male cat, just 12 months old. He is very friendly and would probably make a very good family pet. Fred and Sasha - are a pair of "Golden Oldie" cats which means that the charity will help with the cost of any future veterinary treatment they may need. Sasha is a 12 year old black and white female cat. Fred is her son. He is 11 years old and tabby and white. The two cats have not always lived together so could be rehomed separately. Both are friendly, playful cats although Sasha hates to be picked up. They have both recently received dental treatment and are fit and healthy for their ages 
Craig - is a black, 2 year old male cat. When he first came to us he seemed to be frightened of women for some reason but has now overcome this fear and is a lovely friendly boy. 
Poppy - is a 3 year old white and tabby cat with a few spots of ginger as well. She came into our care last year, heavily pregnant. Her kittens were born here and have all now been rehomed. Poppy has been spayed and is now waiting for a new home herself. She would be best in a home without other cats.
Rupert and Alfie - are a lovely pair of cats needing a home either together or possibly on their own. Rupert is all black, about 5/7 years old, very friendly and likely to be good with children. Alfie is black and white, probably a bit older and a little more timid. He has a heart murmur which does not yet require medication but he will be rehomed on our "Golden Oldie" scheme which means that TVAW will help financially with any future veterinary costs. Alfie is a quiet cat who loves to eat and sleep!
Flute and Clio - are a pair of 13 year old cats who will be rehomed under our "Golden Oldie" scheme which means that TVAW will pay for all reasonable veterinary costs in the future should either cat develop a health problem. Flute is a black and white male while his sister Clio is all black. They would probably appreciate a quiet home without young children and one where they can continue to enjoy spending some time outside in the garden in fine weather. Clio can be a bit shy with strangers and is frightened by loud noises while her brother Flute is very affectionate and rather more outgoing.

Feral cats - we have several cats who need homes at smallholdings, stables etc. They will undertake rodent control duties in return for having somewhere warm to sleep and two good meals a day. More on Feral Cats These are a few of the cats in our care at the moment. If you don't see what you are looking for please give us a ring on either 01494 484527 or 01189 721 871. |
Where are the cats? We have 26 cat houses with 15 of our members mainly within the Reading and Henley on Thames areas, with accommodation for up to 50 cats and kittens. |
Will the cats be spayed or neutered? Yes, all are spayed or neutered before rehoming. |
Do I have to make a donation if I offer a home to a cat? Yes, but it is usually left to you to decide how much to give. However, we depend on fundraising to pay for food, heating, spaying/neutering and veterinary treatment so we are very grateful for all donations. |
