Georgina - gentle stray mum ready for her second chance

Georgina was discovered as a pregnant stray in the early hours of August 9th, clearly in need of somewhere safe to bring her babies into the world. Despite whatever circumstances led to her life on the streets, this beautiful tabby domestic shorthair has maintained the most wonderfully sweet nature, as if she never lost faith that kindness still existed in the world.

What's immediately apparent about Georgina is her gentle, trusting character – she genuinely enjoys a stroke and seems to find comfort in human contact, suggesting she once knew the security of being someone's cherished companion. Currently focused on preparing for motherhood, she's already shown glimpses of the playful, affectionate cat she'll become once her maternal duties are complete.

Georgina will be available for rehoming in the first week of November, after her kittens are 9 weeks old and she's been spayed. She's perfectly suited to indoor living away from busy roads, ready to be both a devoted lap cat during quiet moments and an entertaining playful companion when the mood takes her. After proving her resilience and maintaining her loving nature through such uncertainty, she deserves a family who'll ensure her street days are firmly behind her.

Our Rehoming Process

At Woodlands Animal Sanctuary we understand the importance of placing our animals in the right forever home. That’s why we ensure that all applicants go through the same three-stage process. This helps us to ensure not only the animals safety, but that you and your new friend are the perfect match.

Application & Appointment

Our rehoming process starts with you booking an appointment to view our rehoming cattery, alongside an application form which helps us to best understand which cats will suit your needs and lifestyle. On your visit we will introduce you to selected cats, and discuss your requirements and the available cats’ characteristics in more detail. The appointment should take between 30-45 minutes and will give you the chance to get up close and know your future furry friend(s) just to make sure there is a perfect match between you and the chosen cat!

Step One

Step Two

Home Check

Once you’ve been matched with your cat(s) and your application has been approved on-site, your details and application will be passed onto one of our home checkers for final vetting, who will contact you and arrange a home visit or perform some additional checks over the phone.
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 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.
