New Arrivals. 08/02/2025
Hope was a long term stray and came to us heavily pregnant. we scrambled around to get her into a foster home to have her babies. The lovely Sue, one of our volunteers stepped up and offered her spare room for Hope. Hope has had other ideas! She has had the run of the house, and Sue's heart. We got a message from Sue to say that Hope had gone into labour last night and we are please to announce that Hope had 5 healthy babies. They are all doing well. Well done Hope and foster mum Sue!.
Kitten Adoption Policy
We get lots of messages and enquiries about kittens.
This is our policy on rehoming kittens.
We don’t take reservations for kittens.
If you message us expressing your interest, we make a note of your requirements and get back to you nearer the time they are ready to be rehomed. We will try and match up your requirements and the kittens needs.
We like to see the personalities of the kittens develop before we match them to potential adopters.
We pride ourselves at GCR on matching the right cat/kitten to the best home. For example shy, nervous kittens to quieter homes and more confident kittens would be suited to families with children.
We also like to see if any in the litter are particularly bonded. We would never split up a bonded pair.
We encourage potential adopters to visit when the kittens are 8 weeks. We chip them at 9 weeks, as they have a little more body fat and it’s less painful for them. They are rehomed at between 9 and 10 weeks. This depends on how attached the mother is to them. We only rehome when they are completely weaned.
