About Bea
Introducing Bea, a delightful young tabby with a heart full of sweetness and an adventurous spirit. At just a year old, Bea has an entire world of love and companionship to offer her future family.
Bea is particularly passionate about her mealtimes, eagerly awaiting her food with earnest enthusiasm. Once she has finished filling up her kitty belly, she loves to play. With a love for frolics and fun, Bea will entertain you with her playful antics and unwavering energy.
While not yet a lap-sitter, Bea relishes having a companion who will sit with her, giving gentle strokes to her soft fur. Her affectionate nature and curiosity make her charm impossible to resist. Watching her blissful purrs and happy paws is pure joy and contentment.
In a safe and loving home environment, she will develop that special bond with her loving person, perhaps even warming up to lap time.
If you're looking for an adorable addition to your household who's as sweet as she is independent, Bea could be the perfect match. She's eager to find a special place she can call home, where her personality will truly shine as she builds a loving connection with her new family.

Introducing a Kitten/Cat into a new home (especially where either a dog or cat already lives) can be a difficult challenge. It requires patience, perseverance and supervision.
Once your new kitten/cat arrives home, he or she should be made to feel safe in their own room - we call this the "sanctuary". No other cat or dog should be allowed into this room until they are fully comfortable with their new surroundings. The kitten/cat will need bedding, food, water, a view out of a window and somewhere to hide. A good idea in dog and cat families is also a 2 metre tall scratching post, where a kitten/cat can retreat if they need to.
Keep the kitten/cat in a room for the first few days, then, gradually, using a series of wooden chocks (or similar), open the door slightly to allow paws and noses to meet. It can then be opened further to allow the kitten/cat in and out, but not the older cat or dog in. We recommend that this should be continued for 14 days.
PMAWS URGES ALL OWNERS TO KEEP THEIR CATS INDOORS FOR THEIR OWN SAFETY. THERE ARE PEOPLE AROUND WHO AREN'T FOND OF CATS AND CAN DO UNTHINKABLE THINGS TO OUR DEFENCELESS LITTLE BABIES. THEY HAVE ALSO BEEN KNOWN TO BE COLLECTED AND USED AS LIVE BAIT FOR DOG TRAINING AND FISHING LURES, AND ALSO KITTENS AS LIVE SNAKE FOOD. THE ONLY WAY TO KEEP YOUR KITTY 100% SAFE, IS TO KEEP THEM INDOORS AND WE WHOLEHEARTEDLY ENCOURAGE THIS PRACTICE.
