Patty's 5 Kittens - five little treasures born into safety

Patty's 5 Kittens have been blessed with something many kittens never experience - they were born safely at Woodlands, cradled by their devoted mum Patty in the security and care of the sanctuary. These four precious 10-week-old littermates - three handsome boys (black beauty Patty Kitten 2, black and white Patty Kitten 3, and black Patty Kitten 4) and one beautiful tortoiseshell girl (Patty Kitten 5) - have spent their first weeks surrounded by love, proper nutrition, and the dedicated care of our animal team. Born into safety rather than uncertainty, they're already thriving and showing the playful, affectionate personalities that their mum has nurtured.

What's truly heartwarming about these four littermates is how they've blossomed during their time at the sanctuary.  They have had the dedicated care of one of the sanctury's knowledgeable fosters to give them the best start in home life. They're lap cats who love cuddles and attention, genuinely enjoying human interaction and physical affection. They're also wonderfully playful, bringing energy and joy to every moment as they explore their world and learn about the people around them. These kittens have had the gift that not all kittens receive: being born in a safe place with a devoted mum who's shown them what love looks like from their very first moments of life. Their littermate bonds mean they provide constant entertainment, comfort, and security for each other.

At 10 weeks old, these four beautiful kittens are at that perfect age where they're past the tiniest kitten stage but still young enough to adapt beautifully to new environments and bond deeply with their new families. They're comfortable with children of all ages, suitable for other cats, and would thrive in various living situations. Suited to indoor living and homes away from busy roads, they're ready to discover what their forever homes truly mean. Whether they find homes together, in pairs where they can continue supporting each other, or as individuals ready to embrace new adventures, each kitten will be perfectly prepared for success.

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.
