About Olive
Olive came to Bast when she and her 5 x 2 week old babies were left at a vet clinic with a note stating they couldn't be looked after anymore.
The little family went into foster care where Olive was a brilliant mumma to her little kittens. Now is Olive's time to shine and find her own home to be loved and adored.
She is shy at first but comes out of her shell after some time and will establish herself as the boss of your house and life...she's quite the character! Once she's comfortable in her surroundings, she is rather vocal especially around mealtime, follows her humans around expecting rubs and pats, will jump on the furniture to get your attention and affection...she is the Queen Bee after all!
Olive needs to be an only cat in her new home as she's rather bossy and unfriendly to other cats but would be ok with a cat friendly dog. Her new home also needs to be with older children and adults as she gets a bit grumpy when startled and doesn't react well to her tail being touched.
Olive is an indoor only cat and loves cat grass and scratching posts to sharpen those claws of hers.
If Olive looks like the perfect cat for you, send the team an enquiry and they'll send you an adoption application form to complete and return as the first step in the adoption process.
Adoption details
1. Initial email enquiry via Pet Rescue messaging system. *This email may go to your junk email folder.*
-Please do not enquire if you are only thinking about adopting - enquiring should only be done once you are 100% certain that you are going to go ahead with adopting.
2. Full application form required to be returned before Bast will contact a prospective adopter (check your messages / email / junk mailbox messages within 24 hours for the form).
-If we don't hear from you we may presume you are no longer interested, so please let us know if you have changed your mind, or adopted another kitty.
-Bast Team will only allow cats to be adopted who are given the best care, and this starts with their food. Our adopters must choose Vet food (Hills/ Royal Canin) only.
-Please ensure that you have written landlord approval to have a pet before enquiring.
-Please message us on the cat or cats you are interested in and we will ask you to fill in an adoption form and send it back to us, so we can get the relevant details from you.
3. Phone conversation IF your application has met the needs of this cat(s) from our team lead.
4. Meet and Greet with cat or kitten
5. Adoption (with trial period - contact Bast Team should there be any issues, even years in the future)
-All adoptions are subject to a settling in period. If for any reason your new addition is not suited to your lifestyle, we ask you contact us, rather than dropping the kitties off at a shelter or another organisation.
Please note we are a volunteer run, small organisation so please be patient with us, and understand that with some of our kitties, we get several responses, and if you are not successful with a kitty you applied for, perhaps you are more suited to another of our kitties.
Thank you
Bast Team
