Odessa - young beauty with an unshakeable loving heart
Odessa was found as a pregnant stray in Longridge, Preston, with no microchip and no clues to her past. At just 1 year old, this gorgeous black domestic semi-longhair is barely more than a kitten herself, yet she's facing motherhood with remarkable grace and an incredibly affectionate nature that suggests she remembers what it feels like to be loved.
What's immediately striking about Odessa is how friendly and affectionate she remains despite finding herself in such uncertain circumstances. From the moment she arrived, she's shown nothing but trust and warmth towards people, as if she instinctively knows that kindness will see her through. Her beautiful semi-long coat and gentle demeanor make her an absolute picture of feline elegance, even in the midst of preparing for her new arrivals.
Odessa will be ready for rehoming at the end of November, once her kittens have reached 9 weeks old and she's been spayed a couple of weeks later. She'd thrive in a home with older children who can appreciate her gentle nature, perfectly suited to indoor living away from busy roads where she can safely enjoy her second chance at the life she deserves. This lovely girl is ready to lavish all that maternal devotion on a family who'll treasure her remarkable spirit.
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 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.
