Older Cats Looking For Homes - Welfare and Rescue Page

CATS CURRENTLY NEEDING NEW HOMESAre you considering adopting a Maine Coon?Often the cats that need a new home find themselves in this situation through no fault of their own. The reasons for re-homing are numerous and can vary from an allergy to cats within the household, emigrating to another country or breakdown of a marriage or partnership. Most of the cats looking for new homes have no known medical or behaviour problems, although occasionally they do and you need to have a long chat with the current owner to gain a full understanding of any issues with the cats.
Many of the cats tend to be older – it is very rare to have a kitten that requires a new home. Some cats need to go to homes where there are no other animals or children. Others have no problem with this - it all depends on the individual cat. The website has all the current cats available and it will be updated weekly. You CANNOT sell your cat on this site, all cats go FREE of charge, although obviously we do accept donations as we often have to pay for veterinary bills on cats being rehomed.

ARNIE & NOBBY These 2 boys who are brothers are being rehomed as their elderly owner passed away. Arnie (Arnach) and Nobby (Nolbor) are Silver Tabby Maine Coons aged 6 years. Both are neutered, chipped and vaccinated. They are very gentle, peaceful and affectionate boys, who used to enjoy their home and garden. They are nervous of new people at first, having lived a quiet life with one elderly gentleman. They need a home with no other cats, dogs or young children. They are used to a no-through road, so ideally something similar, or rural or semi rural.
Will consider anyone in Sussex and neighbouring counties -- Hampshire, Surrey and Kent .If you can offer a safe loving home for these bonded boys, then please contact Jacky, our rehoming coordinator, at mcccrescue@gmail.com. The donation for this pair will be £200.

TYSON Tyson is a breathtaking pure white 6 year old Maine Coon with a gentle, affectionate nature and a wonderfully chatty personality. He’s a true gentle giant who thrives on human companionship, always chirping, chatting, and investigating whatever you’re doing. He loves a good head rub, enjoys Gourmet fish food, and has that classic Maine Coon curiosity — nosy, inquisitive, and full of character. Due to a sudden change in my circumstances, I’m no longer able to give Tyson the lifestyle he deserves, and my priority is to find him a stable, loving home where he can continue to flourish. He is vaccinated, neutered, chipped, and fully up to date with flea and worm treatments. Tyson has been raised in a multi cat household and is comfortable living with other cats, though he has no experience with dogs. He is an indoor cat but has access to a catio from the kitchen, so I’m ideally looking for someone who can offer him a catio or a cat proofed garden to keep him safe while still giving him outdoor enrichment.
Tyson has grown up in a busy home, though not with young children, so I’m unsure how he would adapt to very small kids. Grooming is manageable — he can get the occasional mat, but he enjoys short brushing sessions, tolerates being bathed in the shower, and is perfectly fine at the groomers for any extra trimming. He is fed separately because he finishes his meals quickly and will happily help himself to the other cats’ food if given the chance. Aside from that little quirk, Tyson is an absolute joy: affectionate, sociable, chirpy, and full of personality. He’s a loving companion who deserves a home where he will be cherished and given the attention and enrichment he thrives on. If you can offer Tyson his forever home then contact Jacky at mcccrescue@gmail.com There will be a £200 rehoming fee for him.

TALIA & PORTER It is with a heavy heart due to recent health issues that I am looking for a new loving home for my two Maine Coons.
Talia is 8 and a silver tabby, she's a lady that knows her own mind and will come to you when she wants attention, and loves being brushed but doesn't like being picked up, her eyes need to be kept clean due to her previous entropion that has been repaired.
Porter is a handsome 7 year old silver tabby boy who absolutely loves cuddles, the more the merrier. He's not keen on being brushed but makes a liar out of me at the groomers! He needs regular grooming as he matts very easily and currently has a lion cut.
They are both neutered and chipped. They are house cats but have access to an outdoor catio 24/7, so I have not continued with their vaccines. They are fine with children but not been around dogs so don’t think a dog would be a good idea but are used to a multi-cat household before I got them.
If you think you can offer these beautiful cats a permanent home then please contact Jacky our rescue coordinator at mcccrescue@gmail.com. The rehoming fee for these cats will be £250 for both cats.
