About Gooseberry
Hello, my name is Gooseberry and it is an absolute pleasure to meet you.
I arrived into the care of Belle Vie from another rescue. I was terrified when I first arrived and just wanted to be left alone and hide.
It took me a few weeks to stop swatting and shaking and slowly I started to trust my new family. Then one day I realised just how much they loved me and just like that I became the most affectionate little lady you ever did meet. It's been a long few months but I'm finally ready to find a forever home.
Once I warm up to you I am a very affectionate cat. I will claim your bed as my own and wherever you are, I will be close by, ensuring your hand is free for scritches and scratches.
I currently live with other cats, and would do well in a home with another friendly cat, as I am very social. I'm also fine with cat savvy dogs.
I will do best in a quiet home, where I won't be constantly exposed to new people. I'm not a fan of new people, smells or situations, so if you live a quiet life I'd be the perfect companion for you. I'd also prefer a home with older, or no children.
When you adopt me, I will need a special space for a bit. Maybe a little room set up for me so I can adjust. It may take me a while to warm up to you, so please be patient. Foster Ma says I've made great progress though so who knows, maybe I will love you and my new home so much that it won't take me that long at all.
I hope a cat savvy human, that understands my needs and has the same interests as me is out there. I am the sweetest girl with a little chirp for a meow and a love for cuddles. I like fine tuna, dislike crowds and love birdwatching from the window.
Well I must be off, this gorgeous fur won't groom itself. Ciao xx
My adoption fee includes up to date vaccinations & parasite control, microchip & desex.

Please ensure all corresponding documentation, such as vet work for existing animals & lease agreements are provided with the completed application to avoid any delays
Applications are not approved on a first in, best dressed basis, rather we will assess on your suitability. Should we believe that the animal you have applied for may not suit your home or lifestyle, we will work with you until we find your perfect match.
Upon approval of your application, we will pass your contact details onto the carer and they will liaise with you to arrange a meet & handover. Prior to the handover, an adoption contract will be emailed to you along with copies of vet work & our bank details. The signed adoption agreement & payment of the adoption fee is required prior to the animal leaving with you. We offer a two-week trial period, and the full adoption fee, minus an administration fee will be refundable if the adoption is cancelled within those two weeks.
At the end of the two week adoption trial, we will transfer the microchip into your name.
