Friendly and inquisitive one-year-old domestic short hair cat Jude has lots of love to give, and will happily come for a cuddle and lie on your knee. He loves all kinds of fuss. The only thing he isn't a fan of is being held for longer periods of time. He can live with another cat but they would need to be calm and well-mannered just like himself, and with children of any age who are cat savvy and who will know to be gentle and give him space whilst he settles into his new home.

Say hello to four-year-old Chief - a lovely black and white domestic short hair. He can be unsure with meeting new people. However, once he gets to know you, he really is a sweetheart. Chief will let you give him and ear and chin scratches, he will even bop his head into your hand for more if he feels comfortable. Given his shyness and his need for space where necessary, he is best in a home where children are 14+ and can be rehomed with another cat as long as they are calm and not too boisterous.

Missy is a loving and charismatic three-year-old domestic semi-long hair girl. The way to this girl's heart is definitely head scratches and she is very content with sitting on your lap, and making biscuits. She has also hopped onto a couple of shoulders. Missy can live with children of any age and may be able to live with an older cat who is relaxed and not going to want to play or be in her personal space but no dogs.
