If you like a certain breed you can contact that breeds breed club, they will have rescue coordinators who home those cats needing help.

However for moggies, you can get them in just about every shape and colour known to the cat world - although some colours will be rarer due to the genetics behind the colouring. You will also find cats which are long coated, short coated and semi-longhaired. The two coat types your unlikely to find in a standard rescue are rex or sphynx.

Ive had cats of every colour fostered here, although ive never had pointed kittens (siamese pattern), but i have had pointed mums.
