Say hi to Columbus. A dedicated cuddler and affectionate snuggle-bug looking for someone to provide him a lifetime supply of belly rubs – Yes, I said belly rubs, plenty of belly rubs.
This curious and confident boy loves to play with water. He appears wherever a tap is turned on. He can't wait to hop in the bath when his carer is cleaning it, and doesn't mind getting his feet wet in the shower either.
Columbus is living with other cats and enjoys a game of chase or a bit of kitty wrestling before retiring for a nap in the cat tree. He has a reputation for being a little kitten burglar, literally. He has been known to sneak around looking for "new toys" (items his carer has put down), taking anything that is small enough for him to carry, which he proudly struts away with.
Columbus is very social and enjoys spending time around his human, whether that's relaxing on the sofa or following them around. He's the friendliest easy going little boy with a silky short fluffy coat that will require minimal brushing. Columbus is litter trained and has also lived with dogs.
Columbus will need a home with another cat for company. He would be suited
to a family with older children.
Thank you to Hamish of Appleby Photography for the fantastic photos of Columbus.

Adoption details
We are a community fostercare network, not a shelter, and our dogs and cats are cared for in private homes. Note that we are very careful where we rehome our dogs and cats and we have an intensive process. If you want a quick turnaround we are not the group for you. If you seem like a good match for the dog of your choice we will organise a telephone chat, a meet and greet and a property check. We offer a six-week full refund, free assistance for six weeks for any issues, and a lifetime takeback policy with a fifty percent refund of the adoption fee, and of course an invitation to our adopters’ Christmas party.
We care for our dogs and cats and we want you to as well. We know that genuine applicants have no trouble with this process and understand that if we refuse you a dog or cat, it is because you are not the best match for that pet.
Our commitment to the dogs and cats in our care is total and we treat each one as if we are passing on a family pet. This may not suit you so we point out that there are equally great dogs and cats available in pounds, shelters and with other rescue groups.

Please note that we do not take/make telephone calls prior to receiving an application.
Commonly asked questions and their answers are provided when you email us. Unfortunately we usually will not have time to reply to enquiries in more detail and will give priority to completed applications over enquiries. Priority will also be given to typed applications which are easier for us to read and to copy relevant parts.
We look forward to receiving your application.
