 If your cat has had kittens, and you would like us to help you to find homes for them, please fill in the form below. If you want to rehome a kitten, please fill in the Kittens Wanted form.
If you fill in this form, we will contact you via email to pass on the details of people who have expressed interest in rehoming kittens which match the descriptions you provide below, so please make sure that descriptions are as accurate as possible.
If you are unsure of how to describe the colour of your kittens, or need help to find out if the kittens are male or female, please scroll down this page for more information.
We will not pass on details of interested parties until your kittens are at least 8 weeks of age, as kittens should be kept with their mother and siblings until this time.
We are unable to screen potential new owners, this is your responsibility. We suggest that you perform a virtual homecheck via a video calling service such as Zoom, Facetime or Facebook messenger.
We do not accept any responsibility for the health of kittens, as we are unable to assess kittens at this time. It is your responsibility to organise delivery or collection of kittens to their new owners, in line with current government guidelines.
We strongly suggest that kittens are wormed every 2 weeks from 2 weeks of age, so kittens should be wormed at least 4 times before leaving you for their new homes. This can be carried out with Johnson's Worming Syrup, one bottle of which will usually be sufficient to treat an entire litter as needed. We also encourage owners to feed a good quality kitten food such as Pet Connection Super Premium Kitten Food, which the new owners will be able to continue feeding upon rehoming, to prevent stomach upsets and malnutrition. All kittens should be treated for worms and fleas before rehoming, whether or not you have reason to believe that they have any parasites. If you place an order for flea and worm treatments with Pet Connection, please add a note saying how many kittens you have and we will add a Kitten Care leaflet for each kitten, which you can to give to the new owners.
We encourage you to ask for a donation of £15 per kitten, which we would ask that you put towards the neutering of the mother cat or donate to a local animal sanctuary. If you intend to request payment of more than £20 per kitten, or you are breeding cats to make money, then we will not be able to help you with finding homes for your kittens.
If you have more than 5 kittens available for rehoming, please submit as many separate webforms as necessary.    BlackA self colour, meaning that the cat is all one colour, a black kitten will be completely black other than a few specks of white on their chest and toes. If the cat has any significant splotches of white, it is Black & White.  Bi-ColouredKittens which have two colours of fur are bi-coloured, which means they are covered by a significant portion of both a certain coloured fur and white fur. Some cats will have more coloured fur than white, some will be the opposite and will be mostly white.  GingerGinger cats can be anything from a washed out lemon like colour, through to a deep red colour. Ginger cats often have a distinguishable tabby pattern running through the coat. For the purposes of identification, please also include lighter Cream coloured cats under this category.  Grey / BlueThese cats are a blue-grey colour, with all fur being the same shade. Cats expressing a striped or tabby pattern alongside the grey blue colour should be marked as Silver Tabbies.  Silver TabbySilver, Grey and Blue Tabby cats display darker grey or black stripes on a buff, silver or grey background.  TabbyTabby cats have stripes or bars of darker fur on their legs, buttons of darker colors on their tummies, a darker stripe of fur along the center of their backs, and rings around their tails, on a lighter brown base.  TortoiseshellSometimes known as Calico, the Tortoiseshell colour presents as a coat of 3 colours, usually Black, Red (Ginger) and White. Sometimes the white is very minimal so the cat may appear mostly as a mottled red and black.  WhiteWhite cats are completely white, with no splotches of any other colour. They are not albino, as the eyes usually have a green or blue pigment in adult cats.  Determining the sex (gender) of a kitten is easy when you know what to look for, and can usually be checked fairly easily from 6 weeks of age.
Lift the kitten's tail. The opening just under the tail is the anus. Below the anus is the genital opening which is round in males and is a vertical slit in females. In kittens of similar size, the distance between the anus and the genital opening is greater in the male than the female.
