NINA Beaten on the head and left for dead, now she's partially blind and needs someone kind. Named after the kind lady who rescued her, she's a sweet one-year-old female. She's shy at first but once she trusts you she loves to curl up on your lap. She's good with other cats and is sterilised, vaccinated and litter trained.
Teenie A lovely young male with the sweetest little meow. He was rescued from Satwa with a severe wound. After plenty of TLC his wounds have healed and he has become the most fantastic young feline. He loves to play and is used to living in an apartment. He's sterilised, vaccinated and litter trained.
Mr & Mrs What a turn-around this pair have made! Initially extremely shy and nervous - they hid for two months! They are now confident and friendly. They'll need a little time to settle in to their new home, and would prefer a nice quiet environment without small children. They need to be homed together as they share a strong bond and would like to live in a villa so they can explore the great outdoors if they like. Both vaccinated, sterilised and litter trained.
Snoopy A very sweet six-month- old female. Snoopy was already adopted from Feline Friends but unfortunately her new home didn't work out because the cat that she went to live with decided he didn't like her. She's back with Feline Friends and looking for a new home without any other cats. She loves to be around humans and is a very affectionate. She's vaccinated, sterilised and litter trained.
Satwa Sal She is not the most strikingly beautiful cat but deserves a new home all the same. She has lovely grey tabby markings. She was rescued from a car park in Satwa with a huge wound on her neck where we think that someone may have tried to slit her throat. She is a little nervous initially but once she learns to trust you she is very sweet and affectionate. She's fully vaccinated, sterilised and litter trained. Ideally, we'd like to see her go to a home where she can have access to the outdoors (although this is not essential).
Bobby A lovely black-and-white male, with beautiful silky fur who loves to be around you. We're not sure of his exact age, although we think he is still quite young, he loves to play and is used to living in an apartment. He's sterilised, litter trained and vaccinated.
