Q Kitten 1 & Q Kitten 2 - tiny souls rescued from desperation
Q Kitten 1 and Q Kitten 2 have a remarkable rescue story that speaks volumes about human compassion. A kind-hearted lady answered a Facebook advert for free kittens - a red flag for anyone familiar with kitten welfare - intending to collect two. But when she arrived and saw how impossibly tiny and young these 6-week-old tabby sisters were, she made a decision that saved their lives. Realizing they were far too vulnerable to be given away to unknown homes, she brought them straight to us instead. These little girls - Q Kitten 1 with her more ginger-tinted face, and Q Kitten 2 with her paler grey-brown colouring - have only ever had each other, and that bond has been their lifeline.
What makes these sisters so special is how they've supported each other through their early struggles. Found as strays without their mum at just 6 weeks old, they would have faced terrifying odds alone. Instead, they had each other - providing warmth, comfort, and the reassurance that comes from familiar company. That bond is precious and irreplaceable, and they will be rehomed together as the devoted pair they are. Their mutual dependence on each other means separating them now would be cruel; keeping them together gives both kittens the confidence to face their new world.
Q Kitten 1 and Q Kitten 2 are currently in loving foster care where they're receiving the specialized attention that young kittens need. They're not quite ready for their forever homes yet - they'll be prepared for rehoming towards the end of June - but we're happy to accept reservations now for families who want to secure these precious girls before they're ready. We will accept homes with an existing adult cat with these 2 being kittens. To enquire about these 2 girls, please phone rather than filling in the form online, as they're currently with their fosterer.
These tiny survivors have already proven their resilience and their capacity for love. Q Kitten 1 and Q Kitten 2 deserve a family who will keep them together, who will provide the patient, gentle care that young kittens require, and who will ensure that the bond that saved their lives is cherished forever. For someone ready to welcome two bonded kitten sisters and give them the secure, loving start they've been fighting for, these girls are worth the wait.
These kittens are with a fosterer, so please phone to arrange an appointment. 01704 823293
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 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.
