Clove & Carol - devoted companions seeking their fresh start
Clove and Carol are light-coloured domestic shorthaired girls who have found themselves at Woodlands through a change in family circumstances that made keeping them impossible. At 5 years and 3 months old, these bonded companions have spent their lives together, creating the kind of deep friendship that only develops between cats who truly choose each other's company. They've faced this upheaval side by side, providing each other with the comfort and security that makes an uncertain world slightly less frightening, and they will be rehomed together as the devoted pair they are.
What makes Clove and Carol particularly appealing is their wonderful adaptability and easygoing nature. Both girls are comfortable with older children and have proven themselves happy to live alongside dogs, showing the kind of tolerance and confidence that makes multi-pet households work beautifully. Their bond means they'll settle more quickly than single cats might - they provide each other with reassurance and familiarity during transitions, making them ideal for families who want the joy of two cats without the stress of introducing strangers to each other.
At 5 years old, Clove and Carol are at that perfect age where they're past the chaos of kittenhood but still young enough to enjoy many active, healthy years ahead. They're settled in their personalities, easy to read, and ready to adapt to a new home and family. Their proven compatibility with children and dogs opens up possibilities for various household dynamics, making them wonderfully flexible companions for the right family.
Clove and Carol are asking for something beautifully straightforward - a home where they can stay together, where their bond will be respected and cherished, and where they can finally settle into the stability they deserve. They've already lost one home through circumstances beyond their control; they shouldn't have to lose each other too. For a family ready to welcome two devoted friends who bring double the affection and companionship while being genuinely easy to live with, Clove and Carol are waiting to become cherished members of their forever home.
Our Rehoming Process
Application & Appointment
Step One
Step Two
Home Check
After this, we will arrange an appointment with you to pick up your new friend, as well as the required food and litter which is available to purchase at our on-site shop.
Rehoming
From the initial appointment to collection usually takes between 7-10 days. When you come to collect your new cat(s), you will just need to sign the relevant paperwork, as well as paying the donation fee via our website. Prior to release all cats will have the necessary vaccinations and medical treatments - all signed off by our vet.
Step Three
Rehoming Rules
- We will not rehome an adult cat into a home where there are existing adult cats.
- We won't home single kittens without another cat present. Rehoming a single kitten doesn't meet welfare standards as it will have no social interaction with other cats. This means that if you already have an adult you can have one kitten. If you don't have an adult cat, you can take an established adult cat or two kittens.
- We ensure that no cat or kitten is released to its new home until 48 hours after its vaccination.
- If there are other pets in the household i.e. dogs, we will normally recommend a kitten unless we have an adult cat who is used to living with dogs. Dogs are able to come to the Sanctuary to be introduced to the cat.
- All existing cats in any household must be neutered.
- All cats and kittens that leave Woodlands Animal Sanctuary must leave with the food and litter that they are currently using here, this can be purchased from our onsite shop.
