Eddie knows Woodlands well – we successfully rehomed him before, and he went on to become a devoted companion to his owner. In September, he returned to us when that owner became unwell and unable to look after Eddie to the level he deserves, bringing Eddie's settled life to an abrupt and heartbreaking end through absolutely no fault of his own.

What's remarkable about this 4-year-old black and white shorthair is how his friendly, loyal nature has remained constant despite facing such upheaval for the second time in his life. Eddie has already proven he can adapt to a new home and form deep bonds with his people – his owner clearly treasured him, and the feeling was evidently mutual. That same capacity for devotion and companionship is simply waiting to be directed towards a new family who'll appreciate what a special cat he is.

Eddie would suit a home with older children where he can settle into the quiet routine he clearly thrives in. Perfect for indoor living away from busy roads, he's the sort of steady, reliable companion who'll reward patience and kindness with unwavering loyalty. Having already navigated one successful rehoming, Eddie knows how to be someone's best friend – he simply needs someone ready to be his.
