What are barn cats?

Barn cats are usually stray cats who grew up without much human contact. We have a few barn cats who are fully vetted and ready for a new home.

Barn cats are just like any other cat, except they prefer not to have close physical interaction with people. Whilst they don’t wish to be lap cats, their lives and happiness are important. We are committed to finding them a home that is suitable for their personality.

What do I need to do?

You need to confine them to a secure, enclosed area with access to windows for four weeks, providing food, water and a litter tray in that area. During that time, they will become accustomed to their new home and territory, reducing the likelihood of them going missing.
After the four week period, you can start letting them out, but still feeding them in their original confined area.
We require you to feed them cat food at least once a day, preferably twice, and provide vet care when needed.

What happens when they need to see a vet?

Depending on their personality and how they feel about human contact, you may need to trap them using a humane trap. We will endeavour to help you with that; as much notice as possible is helpful. Over time, many barn cats become more comfortable with human contact so you may not need to trap them.

All barn cats are desexed, microchipped and vaccinated. No fee is charged for their rehoming.
