Kane - loving brother ready for his next adventure

Kane has arrived at Woodlands through circumstances entirely beyond his control - financial difficulties forced his family to make the heartbreaking decision to surrender him. This beautiful 1-year-9-month-old black and white boy came from a multicat household where he lived happily alongside other cats and his devoted brother Jude. Now facing this upheaval, Kane needs a family who will give him the second chance he deserves and help him understand that even after loss, home and love can still be found.

What makes Kane so wonderful is how perfectly he embodies what you'd want in a feline companion. He's a genuine lap cat who absolutely loves settling on his humans' laps for cuddles and affection - one of those delightful cats who actively seeks out closeness and companionship. He's playful and full of energy, bringing entertainment and joy to his home, yet he's also content to simply be present with the people he loves. Kane's friendly, easygoing nature means he gets along beautifully with children of all ages - from young to older. His experience living in a multicat household has also shown him that sharing space with other cats is perfectly normal and comfortable.

At 1 year 9 months old, Kane is at that beautiful age where he's young enough to have many active, healthy years ahead, yet settled enough in his personality to be a reliable, predictable, wonderful companion. He's suited to indoor living or homes away from busy roads, making him adaptable to various living situations. What Kane needs most is a family who will commit to him permanently and understand that he's already faced enough uncertainty for one young life.

Kane has already proven what a devoted, loving companion he can be. Now he deserves a family who will treasure his affectionate lap cat nature, celebrate his playful spirit, and give him the security and stability he's been searching for. His brother Jude is also looking for a home and can be adopted with Kane if a family wants to keep the brothers together, or Kane can find his perfect home individually. Either way, this wonderful boy is ready to show you just how much love and joy he can bring to your life.

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 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.
