Mossie is a beautiful black and white female who loves to nap and can normally be found on the pillow. Mossie would suit a family environment as she actively seeks company whenever she is not sleeping, She likes to talk but has a soft voice and comes with her own favourite toys which provide her hours of amusement. Mossie would suit an apartment and is neutered.
Sissie is a 5-month-old neutered female, who is really friendly and trusting. She loves snuggling on the sofa and playing chase with toys. She is very much a people cat so she would be great with families. Her placid nature makes her ideal for a household with children. She is very inquisitive and loves poking around and exploring, and is also very friendly towards other cats. Would suit an apartment or a villa.
Tom is a 9-month-old ginger tabby who was found wandering the streets of Bur Dubai. He is very trusting and likes cuddling when he is in the mood. Tom loves playing with throw toys and would be fine in a apartment and with children.
Midnight was abandoned at a local vets and is a really caring soul. While she was at the clinic she took an active role in helping to save the lives of injured cats by giving blood — very commendable! She's about a year old, vaccinated, sterilised and litter trained. She has a fun personality and loves to play and explore. Unfortunately Midnight has now been with Feline Friends for six months and though she appreciates her foster family she would dearly love a new “forever home".
Carla was rescued with the remaining three kittens of her litter from the streets of Karama. She is about 9 months old and is a tabby/ginger/white mix. She has a very lively personality and loves company. She would be very suitable for a family as she is used to children. She definitely wants to live in a villa as she is desperate to go outside.
Flossie is 2 years old, and a wonderful, calm and relaxed cat. She is tortoiseshell-coloured with long legs, short fur and really big ears. She used to live in a warehouse but was brought into foster care when she gave birth to her litter of six kittens. She loves going out to the balcony but doesn't seem to miss going outside, so would suit an apartment. She is vaccinated, sterilised, but needs to be microchipped.
Tommy is a 6-month-old tabby who is neutered, vaccinated and microchipped. He was rescued from an apartment balcony where he had been for three weeks in the blazing sun after his owner was arrested and deported. He loves playing with his cat toys, but also with pens, tissues and everything he gets between his big paws. He is used to being around other cats and enjoys cuddles. He is a lovely young boy with a lot of energy.
Bobby is a lovely black and white male, with beautiful silky fur. We are not sure of his exact age, although we think he is still quite young. He is sociable and enjoys nothing more than a good chat about his day. Bobby is used to living in an apartment but would prefer a villa with access to the outdoors. He would fit in to a busy family home really well, as he loves to be around people and soak up the atmosphere. He is steralised, litter trained and vaccinated.
Trixie is a tabby and white female approximately a year old who was rescued near a supermarket. She needs to be kept indoors as she tends to wander and get lost if let out. This has happened on a couple of occasions but luckily she was found. We believe she was a family cat as she is very friendly, but is better with children over the age of four. She loves to be in the centre of it all but doesn't get on with other cats.
PussPuss is a 16 month old, sweet little white tabby with green eyes, a speckley pink nose and a stump tail, In some ways Puss is a "Poor Little Rich Girl". She was found as a kitten and cared for by a family with small children, in a big villa. She is neutered, vaccinated and microchipped. She has nearly everything a girl could want: a bed, dish, litter box, toy, scratching post cubby and carrier. However, her owner has left the country for abroad and abandoned her.So, Puss needs you! Likely due to her history, Puss is shy.However, by the end of her first week she was cuddling up with her fosterer on the couch and even sharing the bed with another adult cat. She is chatty, loving and playful and would make a great pet for anyone.
