I want to get a kitten, and have no idea where to start, no comments about checking rivers and roads for bin bags please.

Does anyone know anyone round stevenage or herts that have kittens for sale??

Thanks

 

Why not adopt a rescue cat or kitten that needs a good home?

Cats Protection League

 

Almost all vets in the area will have a notice board with "loving home wanted for kitten/s" message. So just phone up and ask or call in. DL

 

Does your area have a local Cat & Dog Home ?
You'll find that kittens are obviously snapped up quickly as everyone wants one, so don't discount a slightly older cat mate.

 

Wood Green Animal Shelter is quite close to there and there is also an RSPCA Adoption Centre in or around Herts, I belive.

Failing that, your local vet will be able to assist, as they usually have notices up offering homes. Sometimes local papers also have adverts in.

Pound Kitten Rescue

Cambridge Rescue Home

UK Animal Rescuers

Rescue in Hertfordshire

Hope these help...

 

Columbia300man, I am also from Stevenage and my wife works in the Vets in Stevenage. They are often looking to rehome kittens aswell as adult cats. There is no cost as long as they go to a good home.

Mail me off line of you want to talk about it in more detail.

Also check out The Blue Cross - we got ours from there, and they're wonderful pets.

Bear in mind that kittens need regular feeding and a lot of attention, so they're not really an option if you're out at work all day. A 1-2 year old cat will still be young and playful, but is less demanding and more likely to be house trained.

Also bear in mind that it might be worth getting 2 cats / kittens as they will keep each other company and be less likely to shred your house...

 

Def. get one from the rescue centres - blue cross, RSPCA and Cats Protection as previously mentioned are expecially good. Don't discount little rescue centres in your local area, we got 2 of ours from a little one, they were very grateful

Oh, and even a decent size donation is cheaper than buying one

Also - def. follow Mice's advice, 2 will keep each other happy and save you a bit of work Kittens need *alot* of attention at first, our rescue one's have been 2 are 3years old, 2 are 9 and one's 10 - they've been no trouble at all
