Kitten wanted - Swansea

We are considering adopting a third kitten. We currently have two cats around a year old, both neutered. We are ideally looking for a kitten as I don't know how these two would take to an older cat. Ideally looking for a white one, but will consider any except pure black and tabby, as we already have two.

I have tried the local rescues, but none will rehome to us as they would be an indoor only. We're very experienced with cats, and my partner is home all day, while I go to University.

I used to post here a lot, but just wondered if anyone has any idea of where I can go in the Swansea area for a kitten?

The CP and RSPCA wouldn't rehome a cat with me as I wanted an indoor cat, so I checked out Preloved and Pets4homes websites. I travelled about 40 miles to pick her up.

We don't drive, so that might be a problem for us. Ideally I prefer the idea of a rescue cat rather than encouraging some of the people who breed on gumtree etc, but will keep an eye out. Thanks for replying.

Re: Kitten wanted - Swansea

Just a thought - if you want a white cat and want an indoor one also would you consider a deaf cat? A sigificant number of white cats are deaf (it's a genetic fault) and rescues tend to home them with people who will be keeping them purely indoors for safety reasons.

These two gorgeous felines have to go together but I'm sure there are other deaf white cats in rescue looking for loving indoor homes:

Re: Kitten wanted - Swansea

The idea of a deaf cat doesn't bother me in the slightest, would just need to do some research to make sure I was meeting any needs that they had. I did see those two beautiful cats earlier, but sadly one more is our limit, both for the size of house and the quality of care we provide (buy expensive high protein food etc).

Thank you for all the replies. I will PM Kelly in a bit.

I think it's Paddypaws who is experienced looking after deaf cats, perhaps she could help you?

Definitely keep us posted and good luck
