HOME VISITS
We want to ensure that we find the perfect cat for you and that the cat will be happy in his new environment; this is why we carry out a homing visit before letting you take kitty home. Because all cats have different characters and will have had varied past experiences, the home visit will help us to be able to match the right cat for your circumstances. A homing visit is also the perfect opportunity for you to ask us any questions that you may have.

Do you have kittens available?

Cats Protection does have kittens for rehoming, particularly during the breeding months, but we would encourage you to think about rehoming an older cat, as they have many fantastic qualities. Unlike a kitten, an older cat is housetrained and they tend to be calmer.

How will having a cat affect my lifestyle?
You will need to think carefully before getting a cat as it is a real commitment. You'll need to make time for play, grooming and fuss Make sure that your new cat or kitten doesn't become a nuisance to neighbours, ensure arrangements are made for his care when you go on holiday and be prepared for him to display his

 What is involved in looking after a cat? (What costs am I likely to incur?)

Owning a cat is a big responsibility and one that should not be entered into lightly. Nowadays a cat can live for up to 20 years or even more, so you will need to be able to commit to caring for him for his whole life.
There are essential cat care items, like food, litter, toys and bedding which will need to be bought. In addition to this you will need to account for routine veterinary care (the cost of annual health checks, vaccinations, neutering, de-worm and de-flea treatments). Getting your cat microchipped is also an extremely important investment. Pet insurance will help towards the cost of major illness and emergency treatment and you may also need to budget for cattery fees when you are away.natural instincts (like bringing home prey).
