Hi I’m Betty,

Betty came to us as an urgent case. She was brought to a vets to be put to sleep as her owner was caring for a family member that was allergic. The vets reached out to a local rescue (Rescue Me) who were full at the time but posted online to try and find a rescue space or foster home for her. Thankfully we had a space that had just become available.

At 16, she is a senior lady and she is a little skinny. We have been trying to fatten her up but she is a bit fussy which makes it difficult! We have done some testing on her and she is still under the care of our vets while she waits for a dental so she isn’t quite ready to go yet.

She is such a gentle cat who loves chin and cheek rubs. She is happy to be left to her own devices and will curl up in a comfy spot to snooze. She likes catnip and loves a cardboard scratcher.

Betty would need a quiet home as she does get a little startled by loud noises. She would therefore prefer a home without young children. We don’t have any history for her with cats or dogs but imagine she would be best suited for a home without either. She could perhaps live with another calm cat given careful introductions.

If you think you would like to offer her a loving home, please complete  the cat application form here
