As many of our cats have come to us through unhappy or unsafe circumstances, we naturally want to make sure as far as possible that they are being rehomed to people and places where they will be happy and contented for the remainder of their lives. For that reason, we do insist on doing a home check before you meet the cat or cats you are interested in.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
At the moment our area of operation is mainly confined to around Tunbridge Wells, Tonbridge, Crowborough and Heathfield. So those are the areas we can easily home check and support our cats in the settling in phase.
----------------------------------------------------------------
If you live outside these areas but are especially interested in a particular cat, it is worth contacting us nonetheless as we may be able to find someone to home check for us in your area.
All our cats are vet checked, fleaed, wormed, neutered if old enough, micro chipped and will have at least the first stage of the vaccination done. This all costs a lot so we do ask for a financial contribution towards this.
Our helpers are all volunteers, giving of their spare time to rescue and rehabilitate our cats and kittens. All the money we raise therefore goes where it is needed - to help the animals.
Our Adoption Fee is £45 per cat, but if you can spare a little more, it will go to help bring in another cat off the street.
To arrange a home check, please email info@streetkatzrescue.com or leave a message on our answer phone 01892 821275. Please leave a landline telephone number if at all possible.

Inky seems to lounge around a lot on the play bed. Can you find a place in your heart (and a home) for her?

ISADORA & RHETT BUTLER
Isadora - Izzie - is a 9 yr old brown smoked Tiffanie cat. She has been recently neutered and is microchipped and fully vaccinated. Rhett Butler - is a brown mackerel tabby Tiffanie, also recently neutered, microchipped and fully vaccinated.
Izzie and Rhett came from a multi-cat household where they did not have a great deal of one-to-one attention. In fact, Rhett spent much of his time under a bed and was withdrawn and very badly matted. Izzy and Rhett were kept in different parts of the house but have paired up very successfully in our care. Provided Rhett accepts that Izzy is boss, of course! Both cats are now very friendly and affectionate but Rhett forgets quite easily to be nice to people, so, ideally, we would like their new home to be with someone who is at home much of the time and can continue to give them the attention they need.
Both cats have had limited access to outdoors but would nonetheless benefit from being able to go out and lie in the sun. However, as they have no road sense, they will need a secure garden in a safe location away from busy roads.
Sooty is a little black male aged 5 months. Like all kittens he is on the go all the time and into lots of mischief.
Sooty is fully vaccinated, micro-chipped and neutered.

Teddy is a neutered tabby and white male cat aged around 3 yrs old. He is a very sweet-natured cat and will make someone a lovely companion.
Teddy is microchipped and fully vaccinated.
Teddy is probably fairly streetwise and has a few battle scars to prove it! However, now he is neutered he is a friendly and affectionate boy who would like a new forever home.

Flash is a 2yr old b&w male cat. His owners had taken him into our vets as he had a nasty injury to his tail after getting into a scrap because he wasn't neutered. They then decided it was all going to cost too much so asked that he be put to sleep instead... Now neutered, microchipped and vaccinated, this friendly boy is still recovering from his injuries but will soon be ready to be a lovely companion to a new family.
Update: 05/06/10 Flash has fully recovered and is anxious to move to his 'forever home'

This friendly boy is only around 12 months old. He was found wandering and picked up as a stray. With no collar or chip, and unneutered, all efforts to find his owner have failed so he is now looking for a forever home. Vincent is now neutered, microchipped and vaccinated. He would make a lovely pet for a family with slightly older children. He is still a little on the thin side but catching up fast!

Gilly is a 12 yr old tortoiseshell female cat and Gwen is her 11 yr old black daughter. Both cats are spayed, microchipped and, to date, have had the first stage of their vaccination.
These 2 girls are used to being indoor cats although it would be good to find them a home that will allow them safe access to a garden in due course.
Gilly and Gwen have not had an easy time as they have come from a difficult home and were very traumatised and withdrawn when we managed to pick them up. They are both much better now and Gilly, in particular, is becoming very affectionate and confident. Gwen is still much shyer but with patience and kindness we are sure she will also be a friendly and affectionate little cat.
We are seeking a home for this pair together as they have been through so much. We think they are best suited to an adult household where their new owner is willing to let them take their time to recover fully from their ordeal.
Update: 05/06/10 Gwen has come on in leaps and bounds and is now much more confident ......... this affectionate pair are now desperate for their 'forever home'.

This handsome white & ginger cat was found in Detling close to the A249. We suspect he was dumped. Efforts to find his owner have come to nothing and so Toast is now up for rehoming.
Toast is a white and marmalade neutered male cat of c. 4 yrs. He is very friendly and seems unfazed by cat-friendly dogs and other cats although we think he would prefer to be the only pet.
This gentle and affectionate boy would be a good companion for a single person or a couple who perhaps work from home or are retired. He is a bit of an escapologist so we would prefer someone who is around a lot of the day to give him an incentive to stay close to home.

Cedric was picked up as he appeared to be living as a stray. His coat was matted and he was unneutered. Sadly, no owner has come forward to claim Cedric so this beautiful boy is now up for rehoming.
Cedric is a large, all black, long-haired male cat, aged 2-3 yrs old. Since coming into our care Cedric has been neutered, microchipped, dematted and had his vaccinations.
Cedric would prefer to live on his own without other cats and dogs. He is friendly but having had to survive on the streets he can be a bit wary so we think he would be best suited to an adult only household or to a quiet family with older children.
Cedric has a thick coat which will need combing daily, especially during the winter, to prevent it becoming tangled and matted.
Update: 05/06/10 Cedric is now a lovely cat with a silky, glossy coat which seems to require fairly little grooming. He is quite a character & quite home loving, but not yet a lap cat.
