However, there may be new cats and kittens available, so if you are serious about adopting go to the adopt button above and email or complete the form and we will get in touch. Remember to tell us something about yourself and include your phone number so a volunteer can contact you. Please read the adoption page first which explains our adoption procedure.

Okay meet Fat Face below he explains what we do very well. The first photo is of him feral with a gaping wound on his cheek, in danger of dying from something called fly strike. The family who had been feeding him sought the rescue's help. To rescue him a volunteer had to lay a trap and wait in the bushes for hours, this cat wasn't easy to catch. In the second photo this is him sitting in his new home after a lot of care from the vet and us. He was feral so he will never be a fussy lap cat. His family adopted him not knowing if he would even stay in the house. He was done well, he knows he has a home, he knows there is food there and that he is loved, they are his family. He will always stay a little away, he is a social distancing cat. We don't home feral cats, but he and his adoptive family were exceptions.

Halloween is just round the corner and you’ll see lots of black cat images about! So what better time to highlight some of the stunning black cats with Garston Animal Rescue who are looking for their fur-ever homes. Do you have space in your home for one of these mini panthers? With their beautiful sleek coats, black cats are often associated with good luck and prosperity and you would definitely feel lucky to adopt one of these beauties. Black cats also have the added bonus of not being able to see the cat hairs on your clothes! We have many BLACK CATS

Calling all cat lovers! We are currently recruiting volunteers to join our wonderful team of cat foster carers.
We help a broad spectrum of cats; from tiny kittens to golden oldies. We couldn’t do what we do without the help of our foster carers. Many cats don’t adapt well to life in a rescue centre, it takes the warmth of a home for them to show their true colours. Being a foster carer can at times be difficult, as a cat lover it can be sad to see the condition that some cats arrive in. However, after a little TLC, you will also get to see a miraculous transformation and this is so very rewarding! It can also be a challenge to say goodbye to our furry friends, but you can take comfort in the fact you have set them up for a happy and safe future. We are seeking homes that have the space, time and ideally previous experience of cats to join our super squad of carers. You would be matched with a suitable cat and have the full support and expertise of a fantastic team helping you every step of the way. Please contact us if you think you have what it takes to be a foster carer. KITTENS
Not just for Christmas and not just for Lockdown. We only rehome kittens in pairs or singularly if you have a friendly cat. You will need to be around most of the day when they are small. Like a baby they need regular feeding, socialisation and attention and can't be left for hours on end. Please complete the form on our adoption page. Not |
Meet Frances and Flynn our peas in a pod sisters, what an awful start they had, rescued from a ventilation shaft at 5 weeks old. They are gorgeous, 3 months old and all black apart from a few white stragglers. Practically identical and very friendly. inquisitive and love to play. I am a typical all singing and dancing young kittens who needs some love stimulation and cuddles.

HENRY It’s our privilege to introduce this perfect gentleman, Henry. At 17 years old, it’s a tough time to be seeking a new home but he’s found himself in this situation through no fault of his own. Nevertheless, this sweet boy is cool as cucumber and takes whatever life throws at him!

THIS IS RACHEL - She is a lovely sweet girl but sadly is FIV so she is an indoor cat unless you can let her out in a secure space where she can't escape and come into contact with any other cats. Rachel is only 12 months old. She will make a lovely addition to a family.
LOUIS
I Introducing our resident rolling stone, Louis. He is around 13 has been straying for many years. Following a bit of persuasion (the promise of a warm bed and regular fresh food) he’s agreed to finally lay his hat permanently. So now we are on the hunt for a lovely home to accommodate this shy old man. Louis has spent many anxious years living on the street and not knowing where his next meal will come from. He’s still not sure if he can completely trust humans (understandably) so this boy will require a lot of time, kindness and patience.
Louis deserves to know the love of a family in his twilight years. Could you be Louis’ hero?
Below Our Boys Tommi on the left and Pepe on the right
- Tommi is 5 years young.
- He is long haired and friendly
- Not suitable if you have young children
He is okay with other cats but he does like to be the boss so would prefer to be the only cat in the household. - Pepe is 4 years old young
- An easy going lad
- He has been an indoor cat but we think he would enjoy having the option of a safe garden.
- We aren’t sure how he feels about living with dogs and children so in this case we would err on the side of caution and recommend against.
- Could you offer either of these a home

KENNY
This handsome boy is called Kenny and is seeking a lovely, calm new home. He’s only 6 years old and is comfortable living with other cats.
This poor chap has become a little stressed of late due to the arrival of a baby in his current home. I think a lot of us can sympathise with that!
Therefore we are looking to find him a new home environment better suited to his zen-like requirements. Kenny is a friendly boy but prefers grown up company, so we are looking for a child free home and ideally no dogs to avoid any unnecessary stress
