Oz is a seven year old Fawn Abyssinian boy (with all his papers) who, unfortunately, is not happy in a multicat household. He is therefore looking for a new home where he will be the centre of attention. Oz is neutered and microchipped and likes people once he gets over his initial shyness. He is tolerant of dogs and may also accept one or two other cats so long as introductions are made carefully. Can you offer this handsome boy a forever home with access to a very safe garden (as he has no experience of roads)? Scotland. Picture opposite.

WELFARE POLICY:

The Welfare of the Abyssinian cat is our prime concern.  The Abyssinian Cat Association has a Benevolent Fund which depends entirely on small donations and provides financial support to care for distressed Abyssinian cats in emergency situations.  We

Great care is taken to match cats and new owners as closely as possible, so be prepared for a long chat.  Some of these cats, through their experience, may be traumatised and timid, so a home with patience and kindness is essential.  Before a cat is re-homed it is checked by a vet, spayed/neutered if necessary and given all the necessary vaccinations.  These costs are usually passed on to the new owner by way of a donation either to the Abyssinian Cat Association, if we have funded the re-homing, or directly to another rescue organisation if we have merely offered an introduction.
